  2. All the best Harsha for this new endeavor…I’m sure lot of the readers will be enlightened about the beauty of NE. And fyi…I love the feel of this blog!!

  3. As it is your city, I believe you will have a few thousands of photos in ur camera ๐Ÿ™‚ And I wish there was not this much distance between the LIKE button and the COMMENTS section ๐Ÿ˜€

    • Hahaha..Photos..When I was in Guwahati I din’t thought of clicking them as I thought I will never be away from my Place..But this time When I am there I will make sure that I have enough of Photos to share over here… ๐Ÿ™‚

      And let me check out the distance you are talking about.. ๐Ÿ˜€

      • I hope u manage to capture the perfect photo in the process ๐Ÿ˜€

        Well, I take photos of my place because I am stuck here & became a caged photographer ๐Ÿ˜€ ๐Ÿ˜€

      • Yes Surely I will…Because staying away from My Place made me realise how beautiful my place is.. ๐Ÿ˜€

        Caged Photography is good in itself because you are surrounded always with your own place.. ๐Ÿ˜€

      • Yes, until the resources to be captured finishes; but i guess that never ends, as the river came up into our garden this year & that added to the possibilities even as we lost our whole lawn in the process ๐Ÿ˜€
