A panoramic view of Pangong Tso (Lake) near India-Tibet border. Pangong Tso is 154 Km long and 4 Km wide at its widest point. 1/3 of Pangong lies in India and 2/3 of it lies in China (Tibet). Spangmik, where we stayed for the night in camps is the last point till where civilians are allowed. Infact, China invaded India through this front in 1962 and the road to Lake still passes through un-removed mine fields. It is the biggest lake in Ladakh region and largest brackish water lake in world. Another fact : the water changes it's color every hour in shades of blue.
This pic was created by joining 5 photos. Post-processing include contrast and sharpness increase. I would be posting few more panoramas in coming weeks. In case, you are wondering what's up with me and Panoramas, maybe you can credit that to the person (who has taken one of the best panoramas, i have ever seen) who inspired me towards taking up photography.

Man, I'm falling short of words. Heavenly. Must have been a brilliant feeling to have been there. This is truly wonderful.
Oh, and are there any specific geographic reasons for the hourly colour changing pattern?

I was trying to figure out where one pic ends and other starts but I think i wont b able to figure out all 5 pics u hav joined ..
this is real magic ..
Ever Since I saw Subhadip's snap of this lake I was dying to see your's.
Man...I wish I could go on forever describing the beauty of the lake. Or the barren peaks that guard this heavenly beauty. Just imagine being there in person, watching this view worthy of gods...
You look at the lake and wish to extend your arm and touch the cold winds that is causing the water to flutter ever so slightly, feel this strange cloud coming towards you and you just close your eyes in anticipation and feel the filtered sunlight dancing in its wake, playing joyfully, trying in earnest to pierce the ever so placid lake who merely smiles at you and say...Welcome...I am where a man's journey end and a lover's dream begin...
I just have to be there...
