Recently I visited Shimla for New Year Celebrations with friends. It was Sunset time when we were heading towards Mall road. Here are few photographs of Sunset in Shimla...
This is a view from Hotel Landmark on Mall Road... It has a terrace where seats have been installed for tourists to enjoy scenic view of Shimla...
If you visit Shimla don't miss Toy Train Ride. to feel this ride @ Photo Journey : CLICK HERE
Sunset view from Christ Church on Ritz, Shimla... You can see Shimla Public Library on right side...
As the time passes one needs slow shutterspeed with high Aperture which gives this highly saturated Blue sky on Hill stations.... Here is a view of Christ Church on Ritz, Shimla...
Shimla has amazing architecture and I always recommend Viceregal Lodge which is a must visit place in Shimla. : PHOTO JOURNEY TO VICEREGAL LODGE
Sometimes a Photographer needs to compromise with other interesting subjects in the surroundings to get these colors of Sunset :-) But surely you will be able to recognize the place if you have visited Shimla... Its Ritz with HPMC shop on the legt, beautiful trees on Ambedkar park on its right.. Gufa Resturant of HPTDC and Gaiety theatre....
Here I tried to capture the crowd enjoying sunset on Ritz but photograph is not as bright as the one you have seen above... This is another side of Ritz when you are standing near Christ Church and looking towards Indira Market on Ritz.... Indira Market is underground market with variety of shops and Resturants...
A Sunset view through boundary grills on Ritz.... Overall designs and Architecture of Shimla town is very similar to Britishers... Most of the main buildings in Shimla are of the time of British Raj... Like Viceregal Lodge, Accounting Office of Himachal Pradesh, CID office etc.. I am not sure about Shimla Twon hall and few other buildings....
A view of Jubbalhatti Hills during Sunset... These hills have Shimla Airport....
Shot during our dricking sessions in Gufa... Gufa is an amazing place for good food with great views of surroundings...If you have ever visited Shimla, you might have seen this on Ritz...
A plain sunset shot with light on Ritz, Shimla...
Again a view of Ritz after Sunset...
Now sunset time has passed and crowd is increasing on Mall as well as ritz for Celebrating New Year at 00:00
This is the place where you can enjoy Ice-cream in chilling air of Shimla.... HPMC shops for Juices, Coffe and Icecream... But if you want to have best Icecream on Mall Road find Krishna Backers just below Gufa.. but its on Mall-Road not on Ritz..
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010 !!!
