The setting sun at coorg
Tell me O wise one!
Is there anything as sublime
as breath taking as
the sight of the setting sun?
Sunset at the sand dunes near Khimsar, Rajasthan
Each time the sun goes down
on this beautiful golden desert town
fervently to the sky they raise their hands
sending a million prayers up
For peace, prosperity and mercy
on their barren yellow land
Khimsar, Rajasthan
The night fairy beckons
the day monster’s gone
Bathed in glow I wait
For twilight’s melodious song
Sunset at Andamans
Dark clouds
part your heavy veil
grant me
one last long look of this vale
Andamas
The one whose pallet holds
so many shades of gold
Can you even fathom
what his soul may behold
Andamans
Bereft of hues
still splendid
the incandescent sun
takes leave
Andamans
As my darling we part
give me a last lingering touch
The morning we will begin anew
our never ending love
Goa
‘My Sun’ it never leaves me
His bright chatter fills every moment of my day
The setting sun doesn’t perturb me
I listen rapturously to what ‘My Sun’ has to say
The theme at Where’s my backpack?‘ this week was Sunset. I have a million pictures of the sunset. Its one of those things of nature I can never get enough of. These are the few I picked from my old photographs. Hope you enjoy them!

Awww, this is so beautiful! Particularly love the Coorg and Andaman shots, and of course the one with your ‘Sun
thanks madhu
Andamans is very beautiful! raw , untouched and pretty clean.
What a wonderful gallery of sunsets – I especially like the last one – so sweet!

glad u stopped by
Gorgeous!
thanks kathryn!!! one of the first times I put in pictures clicked by the hubby and me !!! I must dig into our holiday albums more often
Lovely photographs. The one of the sunset at Khimsar has to be my favourite here.
glad you liked them. Khimsar is beautiful and there is a haunting beauty to the sun setting in endless expanse of sand. Thanks for the visit
Sunsets are one of my favorite times of day, these are lovely. I don’t think I can pick a favorite, though Khimsar is really evocative.
Khimsar is a special place. Its really small and has this old palace that’s been converted to a hotel. the area has a lot of black buck deer and the dunes a little away from the village are stunning! Glad you liked the pictures
I love all of your pictures, but the combination of pictures and words is especially beautiful! Would that there were another dozen pictures . . .
you just made it all worth it! thank you
