The Mystic Falls by Ratnadwip Saha

Please don't confuse the title for the Vampire Diaries. But this fall is indeed mystic.

Tirthamukh - the headwater spot for the largest river of Tripura, Gomati. Basically it's an artificial fall. What you are seeing here is the overflowing water of a dam but as they say, sometimes the natural components create mysticism in a way that exceeds the boundaries of artificiality. Particularly for this shot let me tell you a backstory...

This place is an approx 3 hours drive from my home. And I had heard that the best view of the place is achieved with fog. So one fine winter night, I set my journey towards it. It was 2 am.. I would reach by 5.. And here's the twist... I have visited this place for the last 5 winters only to witness the fog just one time. And thus I feel this fog is more mysterious than others!

In this fog I found solace. I found an exceeding amount of closeness to my own soul. Sometimes we visit places on hype and I am not judging but true gratification comes when that hype turns to peace without us knowing and somehow Tirthamukh is one of such places in North East India. I believe that my birthplace has a lot to do with my love for photography, it's naturally blessed and thus let "The Mystic Falls" be a special page in my book of memoirs.
