Looking Through A Train Window – A Flash Back Photo Story

Manu

Nature amazed me from my childhood onwards. I remember fighting with others for a window seat in trains and buses to enjoy the beauty while travelling when I was a kid, and on an honest note still do it without a fight to sit in the side seat, and I am sure it would be the same for most others here too.

In every country and state, there are many places that happen to be famous tourist attractions, where the places have enough natural features that could be mesmerising for people.

But some states are blessed by nature with some wonderful sights across a long stretch, so one will be able to have amazing locations throughout.

Last week, I was looking through some old picture galleries and was surprised to see that a few years back, I shot over 100 snaps from a train journey filled with different faces of nature.

I am posting here a few of the snaps, hoping that you people could enjoy them too.
