Stunning Views From A Height of 1500 meters Above Sea Level

What a view...The real signature of GOD's touch on nature

Embracing The Nature

In photography, the one feature I really like is the macro shot. A close look into the beauty of everything around. This time too, the flowers and the trees, the beauty of nature, got into my canvas.

Ani too started loving the macros, the below has some pics contributed by her.

Freeing The Mind

Reading newspaper early in the morning - did not happen for a long time in my life. But after the sunrise walk, when I reached back at the hotel, there was a good collection of newspapers. Thought of reading it for some time.

The room boy came with a hot steamy coffee. Enjoyed each sip and the serenity around.

Walking Around

Wanted to walk around for some time, enjoying the greenery and that special violet color flower, which was almost everywhere in Yercaud.

On the way back I noticed that the car windshield was blurred with the fog. And did the same, what everyone else does in that situation - scribbled some texts on it for fun :)

The place was so calm that, I couldn't find any other tourists around. Felt like the whole place was only for us. And that’s was the best part of the trip.

Sun Rise at Yercaud

We reached the resort by 12:45 am. Got the room in five minutes and immediately settled to embrace the bed. We were totally tired by the hair pin bend drive.

A totally different place and atmosphere. A real feeling of vacation, away from the same usual daily life. The feeling was wonderful.

While I travel, I prepare my mind to experience the best of that place. Mind creates that mood. Even the minuscule things around will feel special then. And the feeling is priceless.

The place around was quiet, chilled and peaceful. Kept the alarm at 5:30 am and slept like a baby in that tranquility.

Got up by 6:00 am. There was an urge from inside, to get out of the bed, which usually never happens on a typical day, but always happen on a vacation. Rushed out of the hotel to walk around, to feel the Yercaud morning. Unlike the vehicle horns, the sweet talks of birds around welcomed me. It was so soothing to be around then. Fresh air kept hitting my lungs, which chilled me from the inside. I decided to walk for a few distance, towards the mountain edge, to see the spectacular view of the city. The city was still sleeping then and the white colored fog covered it like a quilt.

Wondered and enjoyed the beauty of the nature for some time and walked back to the hotel, which presented me with the wonderful sight of sun rise. Every time I watch the sun rise, I feel like the duck egg yolk rising up. The orange color is so intense, that I tried to capture it in my frames. Enjoyed the view for some time and walked back to the hotel for a coffee.

How can I describe that feeling which I went through? I don’t know…
