At the border of India-Pakistan lies a little village of Bogdang. A village which has been witness to numerous wars and unrest for over 7 decades. Despite having a very volatile existence, this place is among my most favourite and most visited corner of Ladakh. Reason is pretty simple. People.

Bogdang hosts some of the finest humans I have ever met. They are kind and they are real. Their hospitality, humour and ofcourse the yak tea are as warm as their hearts and smiles. Presenting one of the angels I met in the village, her beloved nickname is gulab (rose) and no points for guessing why. I have made number of revisits to her since and still happen to stay in touch with her parents.

As my sign of gratitude, 25% of the proceeds from this NFT will be handed over to Gulab for her educational purposes.

PORTRAIT OF HUMANITY collection image

My genesis as a travel photographer began with my first visit to Himalayas a decade back. My life, focus, devotion, religion, priority & every breathing moment has since been photography.

Himalayas - Land of extreme altitude & lowest oxygen, arid landscapes & majestic snow cap mountains, decorated with glaciers and ice. Picturesque gompas, meditational mani walls & multi hued buddhist flags further exemplifies the beauty of the roof of the world.

However, what shines for me as a portrait photographer are the people of the land. Despite residing in the harshest of scapes & lacking the bear essentials of life, people of the mountains are as joyful & as content as one could ever desire. Warmest smile, tightest hugs, sweetest words & kindest deeds define their existence. I may roam the world, but my heart always beats for the Himalayas. In this collection, I present 1/1s which gives you an intimate glimpse into the real soul of the Himalayas.
