60 Seconds in the Himalayas


The Himalayas are more than 50 million years old, but in the last 50 years they have witnessed a huge change. Here’s a short time lapse from the magnificent Himalayas. Images from the past and the present that provoke us to think about the future of the Himalayas.

This film has been shot in Himanchal Pradesh, India. The city shown is Shimla, also known as the ‘Queen of the Hills’! Shot with Canon 600 D, 18-135mm lens.

With such a huge population are we heading toward an imminent crisis? What are the future problems you foresee? What steps can we take to be better prepared & to turn our weakness into our strength?

New Images from Old Delhi

Old Delhi: A collection of images that tries to capture the chaos called life in Old Delhi. People, Rickshwas, Wires, Horns, Vendors, Carts and Monkeys. Everywhere you look images call to you. Untold stories of nameless people. Crowds that create the fabric of our society. The machinery is always running. The business of our lives never stops.  The chaos is always on. But have you noticed that within every image of chaos lies a shadow of peace?
