Photo A Day Experiment (PADE) Day4 - Distance

An old entry for the day's theme: Distance, a favorite one from the collection. This one I took on my February ride to Jaisalmer. We were racing against the time to reach Khuri Dunes before sunset to devour it across the desert. But, finally we had to witness the Sun setting at the far end of an 'up-n-down' road to our destination...
It's not just the Distance...
It's not just the Distance, but Destination,
It's not just the miles, but people we meet... ~ Ghumakkar

 Shot it on D5000 at 300mm f/5.6 1/400 exposure, no edit - just auto-corrected.

    Beautiful Punit! The usually bright sun looks so subdued and mellow.

    Hello, what the hell man, one good photo after another, you've given me huge complex and made me jealous of the awesome trips you take, Mr. Ghumakkar!
    Jokes aside, I'm speechless. This is so surreal. I have always wanted to tour around Rajasthan but never got a chance. Now I'm tempted even more.
    Great work Punit. We're honored to have you as a PADE participant!

Banned Indian Books

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high; Where knowledge is free; Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls; Where words come out from the depth of truth... Few days back when I came to know about a book on an Indian Business Barron on the Banned Indian Books’ List, the first thing that came in my mind were the lines from Tagore . What an irony, we live in a country, whose forefathers have dreamt about a nation without fear, about a nation with right to speech, right to knowledge; and where the Government enjoys the “privilege” to “freely” ban the books, censor what it feels offensive! Wikipedia describes Banned books as the books whose free access is not permitted. Further it says that the practice of banning books is just another form of censorship, and often has political, religious or moral motivations. In our country, banning books have got its history since the British rule days. In fact, few of the Books ...

Hoolangapar - Home of Indian Gibbons

Known as the Knowledge city of Assam – Jorhat is a small town in the NorthEast India with a unique distinction of sheltering India’s only population of Apes – the Gibbons . Hoolangapar Gibbon Sanctuary spreads across an area of about 21 km sq and is named after Hoolock Gibbons .

Home Quarantined Day - the Last 1

I am not at all getting in to exactly how many days I stay locked in this room. I did not complete the course, neither Dark Season 3, nor the Book and didn't click a lot. I just kept working, on this or that stuff, cold calling people, and watched a lots of movies and web-series. But not Dark S03 - it's too intense; 3 timelines now intertwined with 2 alternate dimensions! I love all these complexities, absolutely, but the series is too heavy. I couldn't complete the course I intended to - was not at all in mood. One day, however, I did set up the camera and the flash and the stand - but like always camera battery died, and I have been too lazy to recharge. A few random shots like the above one and the one below - I didn't do much. But, I kept keeping track of my body temperature and it never crossed the normal number. So, I am good and finally yesterday when Hospital confirmed that "I can live my life", my wife agreed to put an end to this "no-good for an...
