Great Job Done. Thanks. Would be grateful if you share some write up too by visiting “Sajag Himachal” Campaign launched by the HP SDMA in social media sites.
Thanks for your suggestion and appreciation. I have emailed you regarding the same. Kindly respond.
I can’t believe that I was at this bridge few days back
while on our trip to Manali and Solang Nallah, along
with my family. The area is very arduous. And the flow
of water at these locations was dominating…..
Seriously bad!!! Guess the roads have been restored now but now these cloudbursts are becoming very common in August 🙁
This is such a mess. Thanks for sharing these photographs. Although I feel like these watermarks could have been smaller and at the side of the images. these are really annoying at this size and centered.

Thanks Raman for your valuable feedback. We had to take this decision of bold watermarks because plagiarists were after us badly. Many photographs and news reports were ‘stolen as it is’.
We will take a look into it and definitely come up with a better and user-friendly solution.
