Dal Lake in Srinagar, Kashmir

Boating on Dal Lake in a Shikara.

When we first heard about the boat tours on Dal Lake in Srinagar, Kashmir, we thought it might be too touristy for me.  Well, sometimes it’s spots just like this that make for beautiful pictures.  The water on the lake is so clear that you can see the aquatic plants below the surface, and then there’s that Kashmir BLUE sky overhead, and those one-of-a-kind boats, called Shikaras, floating along that create a fairytale landscape.

Editing our India 180º books is proving to be difficult, due to the huge volume of photos I made there.  Every time we look for a picture to post, we lose 3 hours because we can’t stop looking through our albums. What a beautiful and amazing place India is!

About the Authors

Photographer George Edward Giunca, and his Thai wife, Apisatha, have traveled around Thailand armed with a circular fisheye lens to create a photo essay on the rich cultural diversity, and abundant natural beauty of the Kingdom of Thailand. Fleeing from angry water buffaloes, slapping huge mosquitoes, watching exotic festivals and religious rituals, gorging on delicious spicy food, applying aloe vera cream to sunburned skin, wading through rice paddies, getting drenched to the bone by heavy monsoon rains, and gawking at breath-taking scenery; made it a journey of epic proportions! The result is the book, THAILAND 180º. Later, they traveled extensively through Myanmar, Malaysia, and India, gathering a massive collections of 180º photos. They currently live in Chiang Mai where they continue to blog and are now working on a CHIANG MAI 180º book.
