1989 Altitude Cold Dunn Glacier Himalayas Kashmir Kashmiri Philip Sled Sledge
EDITORS COMMENTS
"Amidst the breathtaking beauty of the Himalayas, this photograph taken in 1989 showcases the enchanting landscape of Thajiwas Glacier in Sonomarg, Kashmir. The pristine, icy expanse of the glacier stretches out before us, shimmering under the clear blue sky, with the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas towering in the background. A local Kashmiri man, dressed in traditional attire, can be seen making his way across the frozen terrain, skillfully maneuvering his sled. The harsh altitude and extreme cold have not deterred him from making a living in this rugged terrain. His determination and resilience are a testament to the indomitable spirit of the people of Kashmir and their deep connection to the land. The serene tranquility of the scene is only broken by the occasional crunch of snow underfoot and the distant sound of the glacier melting, a reminder of the delicate balance between nature and human existence. This photograph, taken by renowned photographer Philip Dunn, transports us to a world of breathtaking beauty and raw natural power, a world where the passage of time seems to stand still." This image is a stunning representation of the natural wonders of Kashmir and the strength and resilience of the people who call it home. It is a powerful reminder of the importance of preserving the natural world and the unique cultures that thrive within it.
