Mountains of Ladakh, seen from an aircraft window..

I witnessed this magical moment of crossing a river’s path from high up in the air, when I was returning after concluding a photography tour of the winter landscapes of Ladakh. I wasn’t really looking to shoot through the aircraft window, as the haze/clouds during the day really spoils the opportunity to make good images. It was 10.30 already and the sun was high up, but Ladakh’s air was remarkably clear and seeing the river from 30,000 feet up in the air was a moment not to be forgotten. I was sitting by the window, but my camera was packed and put away in my bag. I grabbed my neighbour’s camera and quickly fired a few shots. Here is one of them.
