<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A morning shot taken in Bhopal, as the fisherman prepares his boat to go out into the water. Bhopal is also known as the city of lakes, with 14 main bodies of water resting within its perimeters. Some of the prominent lakes in Bhopal are <span style="background-color: white; line-height: 23px;">Upper Lake (Bada Talaab), </span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 23px;">Lower Lake</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 23px;"> (Chotta Talaab), </span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 23px;">Motiya Lake, </span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 23px;">Shahpura Lake and </span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 23px;">Sarang Pani Lake. </span></span></b></div>

<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #0e2233; line-height: 23px;"><br /></span></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This photograph was taken at "Bada Talaab" or the upper lake, which apart from the magnificent natural beauty is also known for it's water sports activities. Legend says that King Bhoj constructed this gigantic lake, which is believed to have cured his skin disease. One famous saying related to it goes "Taalon me Taal Bada Taal, Baki sab Talaiya". </span></b></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I do not know the reason I decided to go with a black and white photograph, but I feel that it gives an all new depth and meaning to this image. For me it seems much more beautiful and serene to see this image without colors. Maybe life is not that hard too, you might not find the right colors to make you happy at that moment, yet sometimes happiness lies in stop searching for what you don't have and embrace what's there around you. </span></b></div>

<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This time on my blog, I intend to
take you all along with me on an exciting road trip across the Scottish
highlands to Cairngorm mountain ski resort. Located on the beautiful peaks of Cairngorm
Mountain, the resort attracts tourists throughout the year. </span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

to April.</span></b></div>

<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you do not know how to ski, do not worry, as there are peaks for beginners where you can put your ski skills to test.</span></b></div>

<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

if you wish to view the resort from the top, the mountain railway is there to fulfill your desire, at it takes you to the highest point of the resort 1097m above sea
level. From here, you can breathe in the breath-taking beauty of the snow-capped
mountains. </span></b><br />

<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Aberdeen city is known to have two main weathers - rain and

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The wooden bench near River Don in Aberdeen. A relaxing and beautiful spot to spend the evenings at. There are a couple of these benches [you can see the other one in the backdrop]. Carved out from wood, these chairs give an ethnic feel to the visitors. They also blend in beautifully with the surrounding buildings which are built in accordance with the Scottish architecture.</b></span><br />
