I’m sharing a picture of the sunrise in Jaipur shot during my trekking excursion. Sitting atop a hill, I couldn’t avoid capturing this beautiful view on my phone. Let me also share with you these lines penned by H.W. Longfellow, an American poet that seems most befitting.
I stood upon the hills
when heaven’s wide arch
Was glorious with the sun’s returning march
And woods were brightened
and soft gales
Went forth to kiss the sun-clad vales……..
What I like in this picture is a depiction of the winter landscape – the soft sun, haze, and the bare tree.

Thank You! I agree…bare trees make for a great photographic opportunity. In monsoon, these trees become really green. I’m sure you must be aware of Monsoon phenomenon. I have written a post on how the forest transforms with first few showers.
