The Valley at Night

There’s something about darkness,
Which makes you adore the light more.
There’s something within us ,
Which guides us to our soul !

What is it that keeps your fire alive,
In spite of losing your shore ?
Maybe the churning darkness within,
That makes you adore the light more !

The picture above is of Manali valley, shimmering under the clear night sky. I surprised myself by capturing this stunning photo with my smartphone.

Darkness truly have it’s worth…..

    The click is stunning. Dark, light everything has its own beauty only the eyes who capture them make a difference. 🙂

    You take amazing pictures. You inspire me to take up photography😊! Isn’t this playground of ours a beautiful place? Pity we do so much to destroy it and others…
