Have just started adding the photo`s for my trip to India in December, huge task so have started added them bit by bit so check back to see them as more get added. Have added some new header images from Rajasthan to this page.. Amber Fort ( also known as Amer Fort) is located in Amber, 11 km from Jaipur, Rajasthan state, India. It was the ancient citadel of the ruling Kachhawa clan of Amber, before the capital was shifted to present day Jaipur. Amber Fort is known for its unique artistic style, blending both Hindu and Muslim (Mughal) elements, and its ornate and breathtaking artistic mastery. The fort borders the Maota Lake, and is a major tourist attraction in Rajasthan.
Jal Mahal (meaning “Water Palace”) is a palace located in the middle of the Man Sagar Lake in Jaipur city, the capital of the state of Rajasthan, India. The palace and the lake around it were renovated and enlarged in the 18th century by Maharaja Jai Singh II of Amber. The urban lake gets filled up during the rainy season; over the years, once the reservoir became full during rainy season, it got covered with Hyacinth. During this period only the red stoned palace became approachable by boat and through a causeway and presented a spectacle on the way to Jaipur city from Delhi.
Visited India over Xmas this year, hopefully the idea was that i get some good tiger photo`s, BUT no one told me that tigers don`t like armani after shave, and when they smell it they hide???? Well that’s the only reason I can think i never saw 1 tiger, hehehe, oh well, guess me and tigers are not` destined to meet… Great trip round I`ll be putting some shots up, it was a great month touring Rajasthan, covered a huge number of miles, few shots I`ll add here and slowly add better ones to 20 years gallery, first set are some general ones I just started to work on, of the wildlife and forts..
Next gallery its all birds from Ranthambore.
Also have started to add the images on to 20 years as I said above see here for better quality. India Xmas pages |
