Cold Weather Games



Cold weather evenings here are touched with melancholy. It becomes dark so early, and the evening is so short. The day does a quick-fade, and spirits dip even as we get a thrill looking at all the play of light in the Western sky.

Look, SkyWalker!



Talk about walking into the sunset! This man here is helping to pull down the scaffolding that formed a structure that housed the image of the goddess during Kali Puja. The little white dot in the sky is Venus, setting.
Location: Mal Bazar, Dooars, India.

Idler's SkyWatch Post



You cant get more idle than this. I didnt take any pictures of the sky this week, but Partha Dey, who is a family friend, sent me two beautiful pictures he took on his Nokia phone camera.
One is of a jet plane flying over Bagdogra, our airport town, and the other is of the wonderful view of the snow covered Kanchanjunga range of the Himalayas as seen from his office and from his home in Siliguri.


I have started this blog for pictures because my nephew wished it. His wish, etc. I'm happy to take part in SkyWatch Friday again, even if these are not my pictures.
