A Rainbow - An Optical Phenomenon
As winter's final frontier blurs with the arrival of spring across the vast expanse of India, crimson palash and shimul blossoms mingle in a riotous dance, as if sweet melodies in the air. Meanwhile, in the foothills of the mighty Himalayas in Himachal Pradesh, thick layers of pristine snow cloak the peaks like a serene white blanket, while intermittent showers and hailstorms, like whispers of frost, send shivers down the spine on the slopes below. Amidst this symphony of nature, suddenly, at dawn, peeking through the clouds, rests a geometric marvel on the canvas of the emerald valley - a rainbow.

As I began to capture the moment, the gentle patter of rain commenced once more. The taste of such soft light will linger in the eyes for days to come, yet conveying its essence through a mere photograph remains a challenge that intrigues me deeply.

"The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain." - Dolly Parton
