The Wandering Hermit's photostream |

The Present is a Luminous Ball.
Behind it - the Past; in front of it - the Future
The whole soars in total darkness and reels to and fro, now gently, now vigorously.
Below there is an abyss, above vapor, It is pitch dark.
Either the ball crashes, then all is lost or it glides into the future and renews hope.
Which way is it going? I for one am totally helpless and can't seem to influence which way the twin headed hammer of time will fall and what will be the result.
===========================================
Bitten by Wanderlust I roam around, I'm a Drifter
A traveler to the peaks and passes of the Indian Himalayas...
The high mountains are where I am in my element, ..
Aspiring Author meantime I scribble as I dribble.

Enlight us more with your brilliant images. KUDOS......

Motographer says:
"With myriad hues and shades, the mighty Himalayan peaks breathe life in Zofo's photostream. One needn't look at the hundreds of comments and favourites to learn that Zofo's mystically spectacular pictures leave his viewers spellbound for minutes together every time they show up in his photo stream. True to his real name, his pictures are quite simply one of a kind!
This man is a gifted artist, as evidenced by his mesmerizing pictures and his passion for scaling mighty mountain peaks to sink in those rare glimpses of heaven that manifest as photographs of the most exclusive terrestrial vistas in his photostream. While many of us may not be able to witness them in our lifetime, we can, at least, take heart from the fact that we can experience them virtually through the Wandering Hermit's lens.
As a long time fan of Zofo's work, I wish to express my thanks and appreciation to him for sharing with us his marvelous works of art as I eagerly await the next new set in his photo stream.
Cheers!

"Each pic in his stream is a master piece. can spend hours just seeing at his stream and if possible steal some ideas and click :)
If i can click atleast one pic like him, that would be a greatest achievement for me.
Keep rocking dude :)"3rd July, 2009

"I have not really seen someone come up with such stunning photographs one after another like Apurva does... Every picture that he presents is a masterpiece, every frame that he displays is worth a large wall...
In addition to the photographs, I feel that I have learned more about the mountains in India from his pictures and words than ever in my life !!!
Thank you Apurva for these amazing pictures... I look up to you ( literally as you are on a higher altitude usually :P)"20th January, 2009

"i can't remember when i first saw " The Wandering Hermit's" photostream .... the only thing i can remember is that his photo-collection is one of the remarkable i have even seen on flickr world.
i adore his photography cos it affects so strong & magnetizing due to his view of perspective which bring the images to such quality the others don't have.
with do respect, i adore his extreme hobby too which allows him to the mountain peak where i could breath no more....thus allows us to see fabulous & magneficient images out there.
Z.....keep up your marvelous work, i'll be watching it and i'll be your nr. 2 fan if there's a nr. 1 already :)))"13th June, 2008
