Aparna Mohindra sharing Travel Photographs from the pristine valleys of Kashmir (India)

I had always wanted to visit Kashmir, and when I reached I felt a real connect with the place. I felt I was able to (weird as it sounds) understand the environment, and by that I mean nothing related to the politics in the region; just the intensity of the fragile calmness.

Know the Photographer - Aparna completed her Diploma in Photography in August 2013 from Apex Academy for Photographic Excellence and has since been interning with renowned photographer Aditya Arya. She believes that life is so busy, so complicated, that we forget the little things, the most important things, and photography helps us capture those times, that we all would eventually forget. According to her photography conveys something that often words can't, or can but with more of them- pictures truly can speak a thousand words, and are as skilled in eliciting feelings and emotions in people as any great song or novel.

If you liked this post and found it helpful, I would request you to follow these things when traveling -

- Manage your waste well and don’t litter

- Use dustbins. Tell us if you went to a place and found it hard to locate a dustbin.

- Avoid bottle waters in hills. Usually you get clean water in hills and water bottles create lot of mess in our ecosystem.

- Say big no to plastic and avoid those unhealthy snacks packed in plastic bags. Rather buy fruits.

- Don't play loud blaring music in forests of jungle camps. You are a guest in that ecosystem and disturbing the locals (humans and animals) is not polite
