Fire in the sky

Place: DELHI

At least that seems to be the case. It seemed as if flames of fire would simply devour the entire sky and leave nothing to see next morning.

The skies at sunset somewhere in west Delhi.

New Himalayan range?

The Himalayas are actually at quite a distance, though they look
temptingly close from Rudrapur
Place: RUDRAPUR

Well, actually timber ready to be shredded, made into dust and then compacted to made MDF particle boards.

This is actually at the foothills of the Himalayas, at the Action Tesa factory in Rudrapur district of Uttarakhand. It was an impressive facility, with all kinds of processes and machinery churning out piles of particle boards of different densities. Then they were getting a sheen of a range of designs.

None of these could really my eyes for ever darting in the direction of the majestic mountains rising - isn't is just behind the factories - and wishing I could run and climb them!
