Tranquility: Upper Kachura Lake by RiazSiddiki

If there is a place in the world, where both me and my wife would love to move to permanently without thinking twice, it is Skardu. A beautiful valley (and a city) located at the confluence of river Indus and river Shigar. It is a place with breathtaking beauty; surrounded by mountains of Karakoram-range with 8,000 meter peaks.

I took this shot at the Upper Kachura Lake near Skardu during my second visit to the place. Approachable by a jeep track and hiking, the lake presented such cool and calm atmosphere that spending the morning there – just watching the crystal clear water, gliding clouds, and greenery became a memory to cherish forever.

Shadows & Reflections: by RiazSiddiki

I shot this landscape at Sadpara Lake (Skardu, Pakistan) at sunrise…………this beautiful lake is engulfed by huge mountains………the timing of this shot is important since the mountains behind the camera are casting shadow on the mountains in front…….giving it two tone look and the reflection in the lake is perfect replica of two-toned mountains…….this is possible because of the height of mountains and their being in close proximity with each other……….this view is available for only a short time during sunrise………………
