Gr8 pics shutterbug - is there anything more enjoyable than the
light show that unfolds daily during the magic hours of morning and evening?

Thanks Amit for sharing your pictures. Great to see all the sunsets and rises, just love taking pictures of the sun though I love it more when it is eclipsed by the moon!!!

Cheers,
Aadil.

The best picture is the "Sunset from the deck of Star Cruise libra at Mumbai". That's an awesome picture!

Amit your pictures are enchanting and I too like the cruise one the best.

Here are some of mine that capture sunset and evening in Leh.

Mridula: Your pictures also show how beautiful India is, whether you go to the north or the south, east or the west!!! Ladakh is one place I have been really wanting to see since a long time and I hope I will be able to go there someday soon!!! Thanks for sharing your pics here too.

Cheers,
Aadil.

Aadil, I have somehow fallen in love with Ladakh. Not just because of its beauty, though that in itself is reason enough. Before that trip I was stuck in a series of bad jobs and I got my interview call email for my present job in Leh and since then things have been looking up. So Ladakh will always hold a special place in my heart.

And I am sure you will end up there soon.

it was quite difficult to make those pics in a heavy shaking bus, but I like the results

Nice images Amit.

I would suggest you start using GND filters which add much more life to the images.
