Just finish processing my photos for the trip with fellow csers in June. Had over 300 photos. So I will be posting my fav in 600x400 size and others in thumbnail (with a link to the 600x400 size). Most are portraits and landscapes. Need to brush up skill in still-life and street shots in future. Had some IR photos and a few attempts at star trail. Photos are usually adjusted using levels + curves (coupled with reduction in saturation when necessary) + unsharp mask. Photos might appear too sharp for some of your likings.
This is my first attempt in cs 'travel-blogging'. This is half the series. Likely to post the other half on the same thread early next week. C&C are welcomed.
Trip is as follows:
Delhi-Manali-Keylong-Sarchu-Leh-Rizong-Leh-Pangong Tso-Leh-Nubra Valley-Leh.
1) AT MANALI
Our lodging Apple View is very far away from the town. Have to climb a slope with our backpacks in order to reach the place. Most of us were grumbling as we walk. But the owner is nice and once of the fellow traveller 'adores' the owner's daughter.
