Amazing Sunsets: Pune, November 2020

:: Galleries – Nature: Sunsets – Nov 2020:

One of my favorite quotes goes: “Watch more sunsets than Netflix “and it’s something I cannot resist! At every opportunity that I can get, I will not miss a sunset.

One cannot be sure of what it might turn out like, but, even if it doesn’t, it’s usually lovely, to see the journey of the sun (or, actually, the Earth we stand on), as it completes a day. Every season (hmm, well, maybe not the piercing summer here) usually offers some great sunsets, especially, as many photographer’s would agree, when the sky is also a tad cloudy.

It was on once such evening, and though, not very cloudy, as usual, with camera in tow, made my way to one of the best spots in Pune, to watch the sunset, little knowing, that what would unfold would be like none other.

Here, are the pictures of this outing – and surely, wouldn’t be the last for me. So, keep watching this space!

Someone took a delicious bite, huh?.

Cloudy skies promise a sunset to wait for... Playing with some colour, as we wait for the sunset... Taking in the peace... Solitude

Cloudy skies promise a sunset to wait for... Find your inner glow... The sun eventually makes its appearance. How will it be? Is it a bird? Is it a flame? It's an amazing Sun!

The Sun's flame is a powerhouse for our Universe Birds swoop by in the spectacular glow Evening spotlight?! Picturesque reflections...

Picturesque reflections... Myriad hues of a sun... It's almost like someone turned on the light! Someone took a delicious bite, huh?

It's like an eclipse, ain't it? Very few take a moment to stop by and witness beautiful sunsets... Well, it's almost like capturing the big red planet in our solar system! Shifting hues (do you see?)

Seems like it's rolling downhill! Balancing act, shall we say? Sinking into the arms of the Earth A primary source of all energy in our solar system, the Sun is about 109x the Earth's diameter...

Picture perfect landscape! Sinking in, for a night of rest... There's so much to be grateful for in this world... Shifting focus to the sky, but the Sun yet draws attention.

Rajgad Fort Trek, Pune (cont’d)

:: Rajgad Fort Trek, Pune (cont’d)

The trek to the Rajgad Fort, started off with inspiring notes, and as we embarked on the trek, we continued to enjoy (and capture) amazing scenery.

I’ll be adding more of them here, as and when I get the chance, but, do have a look.

Flowers, along the trail... The beautiful flora along the trail was making it harder to leave the views and go on! An (unsatisfactory) attempt to capture the sunburst - but it turned out well after all! The fort walls seem to be getting a tad closer...

The flowers along the trail sway in the soft breeze, contrasting beautifully against the clear skies... The pace gradually begins to pick up with the top in sight Whoo! This bee seems to be taking off, literally! (Well, we'll not be able to fly to the top) More scenic views with the fort in the background

Hmm, who would you say has a better view...? That's a scenic frame, ain't it? That's scenic...and, it's still far away to the top! That's scenic...and, it's still far away to the top!

Another group of trekkers take a halt before hitting the top Scenic & historic frames The winding trail curves by along the edge of the mountain... The winding trail curves by along the edge of the mountain...

Honestly, not sure how to describe this unique formation! Looking back towards the valley... Looking back towards the valley... Looking over the expanse of the valley...

The climb is getting steeper... We're on a roll - the top seems to be getting closer (well, somewhat!) It's worth pausing, and looking over the shoulder, at the vast expanse These lovely flora sway in the soft, cool breeze...

These lovely flora add a great contrast to the scenery, as they sway in the soft, cool breeze... These lovely flora add a great contrast to the scenery, as they sway in the soft, cool breeze...

Trails, bordered by lovely flora, make it such a pleasant trek... Bumblebees seem to have no time to soak in the beauty... Bumblebees seem to have no time to soak in the beauty... Frankly, it's hard to decide, what to click: lovely contrasts!
