Missing India.. - 2:36 AM
0 comment(s)
Suddenly I missed traveling so much.. I guess traveling gives you a whole new perspective to life and even photography where there is no boundary to your creativity.. Everyday new experiences await you that stimulate your mind and leave you dazzled with amazement..

I took this photo about a year back when I was backpacking in India.. It was taken in one of the Punjab state called Amritsar where it holds the only gateway to Pakistan from this country.. The temple at the background is called the Golden Temple. As the name suggested, it is not just because the temple is golden in color but it was plated with 750kg of gold which the Maharaja gave for the building of the temple.. Everyday, there are thousands of people visiting this temple.. They come from different parts of this vast land, from all walks of life.. It was a pity that I didn't get to enter the temple as you can see the never-ceasing queue.. I think it'll take me more than a day to queue to get in..

Miss the culture, miss the people, miss the forts and palaces, miss the Himalayas, miss the snow, miss every bit of India, both the good and the bad..
