With snow-capped mountains, bearing the onslaught of bitter cold winds, overlooking desolate deserts, The Ladakh region, in India has one of the starkest topographies anywhere in the world. On a recent trip to the region I discovered that the barren moonscape terrain has been clothed in colors of Life. ‘Red’ being the chief among them! This photo essay is an attempt to showcase the ‘Red’ signifying – religion, faith, tenacity, innocence, friendship, protection, respect, grandeur – of life in Ladakh
The theme this week at Where’s my Backpack? is ‘Red’. Hope you enjoyed my composition. Do visit other entries at

As my name suggests I am a "dreamer" , an idealist at heart and dangerously sentimental. I am also a mom of two, a part time business woman, a book - lover, a stand in decorator for my restaurants ,a movie buff, a social worker by training and a "change-maker". I love traveling, reading and having conversations! not necessarily in that order. This blog is about the conversations! So if you have a moment to spare.
