Into The Wild

For a wildlife enthusiast i have an extremely poor track record of wildlife sighting. I guess the animals don't like me as much as i do! Your good deed for the year could be to take me to a wildlife sanctuary with a 100% guarantee of sighting a TIGER...come to think of it, anything other than a deer and monkey would also do.
The beauty of these pictures is how wild and free these animals seem...something everyone could learn from...all of us have had our wild moments at some point in our lives, don't let the world tame you. Remember all good things are wild and free!


The best spot to enjoy the view

Bored!

I have my moments

Why so serious?

Just sit there look cute...that's my thing

Royalty! Whoever made lion the king of the jungle!

Pretty suave!

Say 'Moo'
Sleepyhead

On top of the world

United we stand



P!nk

"I may climb perhaps to no great heights, but i will climb alone"

What's sightseeing without some munching

Travelography: Hindustan ka dil dekho- Maheshwar


After a romantic rendezvous with Mandu it was time to head to Maheshwar. A historic temple town situated on the banks of Narmada. What people know of Maheshwar is that it is home to the exquisitely woven Maheshwari Sarees. Maheshwari sarees were specially designed for the purpose of gifting royal guests. Owning one must surely make you feel like royalty now! 
Not being much of a Maheshwari saree fan gave me enough time to explore and appreciate the temple complex around with it's overhanging balconies and intricate designs on the walls. The designs on these walls are in fact the inspiration for the motifs on the Maheshwari sarees, and i must say no matter how perfect they might look on those sarees nothing beats the real thing! 
Places like these just make you want to live in that era...so what if you didn't have phones...internet or electricity! Eh...ok let's not get carried away!

Travelography: Hindustan ka dil dekho- MANDU


Have to admit monsoons and romance make for a killer combo! Guess that's what made Mandu so magical...monsoon...palace ruins and the romantic tales of the fortified city. There are moments in your life when you wish you could stop time and live that moment forever. You can never spend enough time in Mandu...it will always keep you asking for more.

Once upon a time lasts forever...and nothing says it better than the ruins of Mandu.
