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 mesmerizing 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 gallery 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 too.
It’s a water body, must be a lake
Zoom in, you could see homes in the middle
A long stream of water flowed along for a while before the train took a turn
A Village in the middle, mountains at the far end
Cool green from the railway line to the village
Its seems to be a temperory water body that fills only during monsoon
A road across the green field
Maybe some village houses are under construction
Full of green stuff
It seems like nearing a city area, and see people filling water in pots
Serene view with lush green fields and railway tracks under a cloudy sky.
Peaceful green landscape after rain, with ponds reflecting the cloudy sky and trees dotting the horizon
It looks like a painting, doesn’t it?
City skyline rising beyond calm rain-fed wetlands under a moody, overcast sky
Nature reclaims the forgotten — green life rising amidst concrete ruins under a brooding sky
Amid lush green fields and cloudy skies, progress pauses—unfinished pillars and passing vehicles tell a story of time standing still
A lonely tower at the end
More big towers, and people enjoying the monsoon time
A city life and village life in one shot
City profile goes with the water body profile
A city and a metro line under construction in one frame
Bridges rise above the wetlands — steel and concrete reaching out to meet the future beneath a stormy sky
Three phases – Underdeveloped, Developing, and Developed
Looks like a confused picture
Construction became a question Mark
That looks to be a colorful modern cityscape
Phase of the nature change to completely village, it seems
An industrial area?
A long lake-like area, now it seems
Monsoon made all the changes, it seems
It’s a paddy field, of course
Again, the same look
Mountain ranges in the far end, an Industrial area in the middle, and water bodies and greenery on the front side
Seems to be a landscape change to again a paddy field in front of a city like area
Water flooding overtook greenery in terms of area
Perfect scenic beauty
It’s cloudy over the paddy field
It looks like completely flooded
Slightly getting sunny
Electric lines look complicated in the greenery
Again, entering the city area
Looks like a long line of buildings in front of mountain lines
Cityscape looks thin now
Again, it looks like a flooded paddy field
Flooded greenery now
There is a road through the mountainscape along
That looks dirty now
It’s a relatively big water body now on the backside
A whole range of uninhibited areas
Flooded ground
A lot of submerged area
A lonely tree on the left side looks good in the photo
It seems like heavy-duty electric lines passing far away
Now, some small village construction at the far end
That looks pleasant, especially the small shrubs in a line
A paddy field and a single tree make a good combination in the photo
That’s my final snap on a bright time with some blue sky and silver clouds above, perfect cool green.
I hope you all enjoyed the journey. This is only up to the halfway stage of the journey I completed. It will continue with one more blog soon.
Please let me know how the snaps are..
Best Regards…
