Lovely pics Rajiv!
The smaller scopes are actually part of the Gama Ray array.

LOL Rajiv, I am not the only one who is happy to get out of Kargil.
Useless Kargil hotel... JKTDC hotel or something else?

Fordmanchau · 21st June 2010, 13:52

Rajiv wonderful pics again. Probably I really, dont have words anymore in my mouth. But my eyes are wide open and the dropping jaw is supported by my neck collar. hehe..

Keep posting Rajiv.I am having a good "BHARAT" darshan through your lenses.

Edit : special mention of pics 2766, 2802 and 04.

mpksuhas · 21st June 2010, 13:56

Great pics. Also, can you please let know how did Sx4 perform during the trip?

harishnayak · 21st June 2010, 14:15

, basically this is the first time I landed in kargil in the middle of the day, and was facing the reality. No, its not haunted place, and there is nothing wrong or unsafe there. But its very uncomfortable place. Hotels are pathetic for the price. And food is impossible, there is no guarantee of what are you eating, specially for meat.

SX4 performed wonderful on those roads, BUT, honestly that 190mm GC gives you only little advantage over other sedans, no where near Safaris and Scorps.

But when the roads are better or Smooth, its the King of the roads, nobody comes near.

And my best drive was to Hanle, it was heaven driving SX4 on that road

Ok, thanks for the reply. Was going through your travelogue with envy. Both Leh and Sx4 very much high on my wish list

Hey Rajiv, these snaps are wonderful. So much crispiness and vibrance in all of them. Keep 'em coming bro.

goandude · 21st June 2010, 15:21

the sky looks really blue or did you use a polarizing filter?

MX6 · 21st June 2010, 16:04
