OMG, How I missed this!!! I'm spellbound, and all these pics are just making me Nostalgic and reminding me both of my failure attempts to Conquer SPITI.

Fascinated by your blog!! planning for a ladakh and sorroundings trip, and am fortunate to find this... great camera work. By the way, what camera gear do you carry? I would appreciate some info. on that. Thanks.
Thanks much! :) Let me know if you need some help planning your trip. I shoot with a Canon 500D and a 18-55mm Kit Lens. I use a Hoya CPL and a Cokin Graduated Filter as well.
Hey Neelima, You have beautiful shots. A word about the pic captioned " Sculptures in Spiti". Those aren't sculptures. That landscape is what is left behind after years of soil erosion from the mountains. :D

I love the Ki Monastery pic. Even though the monastery looks awesome, they are dwarfed by the mountains :)
