'No matter how isolated you are and how lonely you feel, if you do your work truly and conscientiously, unknown friends will come and seek you.' -Carl Jung All you gotta do is do! Do it with all your heart. Do it with all of your love. What comes out of it, what it turns into, is the magic trick universe plays with you. Soo proud of you @gaisina.official ✨️🌻 @tzed_warehouse Thanks @ajmalfaisalaliahmed for my picture!

Look out of your windows, there's a world unseen by your eyes, a world that has not felt your touch. There are mountains to scale, oceans to sail. Maybe it's a book, a conversation, or a video online, but they are all telling you something. That there's life beyond these walls. Look out of your windows. Even if you don't move, the world definitely is. 🌻 #travel #monasteries #monk #lehladakh #portraits #child #canon #canonindia

It’s a blessing when you get to do what you love. Photography has been a consistent love for me for 15 years already and I don’t feel ever tired of it and want to shoot more and more. Here is some BTS with my creative partner @galbi.creativeeee from our last shoot for @vogue.polska x @fanci.club / Bts by @ardor.v

No bucket list was ever made that I could tick this off from. Dear life, throw at me everything that is wild and soft! 📹 @moxsantos @vlvtphoto 🤍 Senpai @joie.officiel

Bloom! Oh little seed, once nestled within the skin of a bird-bitten yellow peach, Now lying lost on the ground, confused and dismayed, You can curse the bird for snatching parts of yourself away, You can accuse the wind for plucking you from your branches. You can stay down on the ground and believe that’s where you belong. But remember—the same wind that brought you down will carry you to fertile lands. You can hide beneath the fallen leaves, but the rain will still water you. Though you may get covered in mud, you will break through your shell. Tiny roots will emerge, Helping you stand tall once again, New branches will reach for the sky, And your leaves will dance with the wind. You are the seed, and also the tree. You will bloom again! 📸 @rayana_sain the sweetest 🤍

Life is beautiful. It's neither good nor bad. It's the stellar mountains and the slippery rocks too! It's the breathe taking views and breathlessness too! It's the mystical monasteries and merciless men too. It's the rain and sunflowers too. And it is indeed the whole that makes it beautiful! The journey was not just about a gentle motorcycle ride through majestic mountains and stories of kindness. There were falls, bruises and hospital beds too. There were days i didn't want to get up from bed. Days when the pillows of the hostel beds i stayed in held back my screams. There were days I wanted to run back to my people. There were days I limped around with a swollen leg. There was a night I hit a car on the highway, got hit by drunk men. There were days I messed up my stomach and had to stop by every public toilet on the way. It took weeks to get over it. There was sun and fun. There was rain and pain. It wasn't all sunflowers along the way. But ain't that what makes the story interesting. And I still want to go through all of that a thousand times over. #pilgrimage #leh #ladakh #Kashmir #Himachal #mountains #manali #motorcycleride #motorcycletour #photography #royalenfieldlovers #royalenfield #bulletjournal #photographersofindia #traveler #off-road

As he moved ahead, he realized that he has been traveling from himself to Himself through himself! The oceans he crossed, The green lands he left behind, The scorching sands he walks upon, The snow clad mountains he see far away, Are all he experiencing Himself through himself. 🌻 #pilgrimage #Himalayas #ladakh #Kashmir #canon #canoneosr #canonindia #royalenfield #mountain #motorcycle #motorcyclelife #longride
