May 2021 Wallpaper Calendar Eagle Hunter Kyrgyzstan

Babul Tree in Sarson Ke Khet - Rural Gurgaon

 The Tree of Life: In Sarson Ke Khets of Gurgaon   Don’t get me wrong, I am aware that the tree of life is a mythical tree depicted in art that transcends religion from Jainism, Buddhism, Hindusism and even some of the Abrahamic religions like Islam show the Tree of Life in various art forms ranging from Jali work in mosques to miniature paintings.  But for me every tree is a ” Tree of Life “, and nothing symbolises this more than this Babul or Acacia tree that grows around Delhi / Gurgaon and various parts of Aravalis. Now you [Continue Reading By Clicking Here…]

Every Lake in Ladakh Has Magic – Download April 2021 Wallpaper Calendar   As summer knock on the dusty plains of India, everybody looks to go to mountains to escape the heat, while for a long time the hills meant Simla, Mussoorie, Manali, Nainital in North and Ooty, Kodai and Munnar in South maybe 5 maybe 10 years ago the movie 3 idiots catapulted Ladakh into fame.

MALABAR GLIDING FROG -AGUMBE – MARCH 2021 WALLPAPER CALENDAR For the March 2021 Wallpaper Calendar let us visit one of the last surviving rainforests in India, the land of a million critters Agumbe in Karnataka.

The Frangipani Tree & Temple in Hampi Karnataka: February 2021 Wallpaper Calendar This post is about the February 2021 Wallpaper calendar featuring a small hilltop temple in Hampi Karnataka. Now I have not traveled in 2020, so I wanted to cancel the 2020 Calendar and calendar contest as I did not have any recent pictures to share on the monthly calendar. While regularly I use old images for the monthly calendar, the ratio is always skewed in favor of more recent trips. But then I thought why to cancel the calendar and the contest as that is one of [Continue Reading By Clicking Here…]
