    Wow Superb shots Aryan.. Just love that flag pic. Only 2 bike pics ?
    Though I felt some of the pics a a bit over saturated , visible in sky- like the circles in first pic. Which lense are the lanscapes taken from ?

        Thank you guys. I used a polarizer this time, for a change. I guess I overdid the effect in some of the pictures.

        @Tau: Glad you liked the pictures. The RVMs were 'stolen'. Am yet to get those fixed!

        @Rockyyy: The landscapes were shot with the 18-55mm and the 100mm f2.8 macro.

            Thanks. Glad you liked the pictures. I did use a polarizer this time, for a change. I guess that is the primary reason why the sky looks deep blue, perhaps even a little black at times, in some of the pictures.

            Yes, there are a few HDRs this time. Tried them for the very first time.

Take any given year and Bengalis constitute 70 - 75% of tourists in the domestic circuits. As I was saying, no other state even comes close!
            It was pretty evident!

                                Leon_nerd, no we actually did not click any pic of the dam under construction, we were not very happy with the dust and the mud every where. as for the temperature, well, we had the best of both world, warm Delhi Night, cool Higway ride, a bit warm Shimla, Cool cool Narkanda, Hot Rampur, cooler Jeori, rainy Bhawanagar...and then COLD KAZA....
                                well, honestly speaking, during the entire ride we did not induldge into too much of eating, we ate what we could decently lay our hands on. But primarily, we survived on Parathas on the highways, Chowein(with all kind of weird spellings) in the valley, choclates during the night, Samosas on the Go..... tea and Cold Drink.
                                as for the local dish, well, nothing much but there's one chinese samosa..... I have clicked the pic too, wait will send you the link.

                                Cheers!
