Photos From A Day In My Life : Rice Fields And A Stream

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

I had to travel to a village on the 10th, a few days ago. To reach the village, I had to drive for two hours, then walk for another two. I had wanted to take some pictures along the way but it was a dreary day, with rainfall dogging me, and the sky was overcast.

Despite the weather, I did manage to take some shots of the terrain and while walking, I had to cross a stream which was swollen, and some rice fields which had just been planted. I hope you like them!


All photos have been touched-up using GIMP, scaled in size and taken with my mobile camera, Samsung Galaxy S6 edge



Came across these rice fields while walking down. The fields had been planted just a few weeks back and you can see the terrace and the water it holds.



Another view of the same fields. Notice the clouds and the overcast skies.



Had to cross this stream, or a khola as we call it. Otherwise a small stream, it gets swollen up as ice melts in the higher reaches of the Himalayas this time of the year.

Great photos

Thank you!

I'm jealous of your travels. Rice fields staggered like that look so awesome to me. The stream is impressive too.

And I feel lucky I live in such a place!

The staggered fields using terraces are the primary method of growing the staple, rice, around here. But I am glad you liked them and thanks!:))

These photos are beautiful! Thanks so much for sharing this glimpse into
the Himalayas with us :)
