This is a part of Golden hour collection. Golden hour is the short duration of time just after sunrise or before sunset, when the light in sky is magical. And this is the most difficult time to make it to the top of a mountain trail as it involves camping overnight. These landscapes are a very integral part of my journey as a photographer. Now that I take photos for a living, these have become my legacy in this world. I have trekked hundreds of miles, spent thousands of hours and lost quite a few fingers. But looking back, I find these worth every bit. This is still what drive me to create more landscapes.

This one is from the Nilgiri mountain ranges in south India. The view from the top hills of the deep valleys and the hill ranges take a magical tone during the sunrise, when the sunrays move the mist and fog slowly from across the skies.
