Camel Safari, Nubra, Ladakh, a photo from Jammu and Kashmir, North

Photographer's Note

Camel safari in Nubra valley at 10,000 feet above sea level fascinates any one with one of it's own kind shaggy double-humped Bactrian camel.

In the earlier times, Central Asian traders used these camels as pack animals but since 50 years they have been bred for transport purposes as well.

Today, these camels have emerged as the hot favorites of the tourists as the choice of their mode of transportation during camel safaris.

Good shot, Ranjan. Good lanscape interestingly caught! The contrast between the small men and the enormity of the mountains have come out good. Sharpness and color can be improved.

Hi Subhash,
Nice composition of the plain against the immensity of the mountain. The people & animals give a good sense of scale. I believe the presentation could be further improved via post processing particularly on the colors. sharpness, and contrast.

Regards,
Latiff.
