Shogran is a village situated on a green plateau in the Naran Valley, northern Pakistan at a height of 2,362 meters above sea level. The village was affected by the earthquake of 2005 when some buildings were damaged. It is only 10 km from Kiwai village and 34 km from Balakot. The road from Islamabad to Kiwai is metalled and measures 212 km. From Shogran, you can ride a jeep or horse or hike to several picturesque places like Sari, Paye and Makra Peak. Hotels and motels are easily available at affordable costs. The local people are friendly and helpful.

Asslam o Alikum
I am back here with travelling and photography, I did last trip in March 2011 and after that I left travelling and photography even I had chances to visit Naran Valley and Gilgit-Baltistan.
Although I did not recover properly mentally, spiritually and emotionally but my love and my kids dragged me back to life. So, I am here again.

This picture was taken on the Track of Saif-ul-Mulok Lake-Naran, when we were climbing down towards Naran village on 2nd day of Eid, on 8th November 2011.
My wife, son (Feeman Ali) and daughter (Ashna Elahi) was also with me.
We paid a visit to Naran Valley from 4th November 2011 to 11th November 2011. it was my first family tour to mountain valley.

Story:
I daily visit the Lawrence Garden Lahore, before I join my office/university, on 23rd June I was on my routine deadly slow walk in the Lawrence, I was walking through bamboos and this head of the dead crow was 'ready for photo shot'. So, how could I avoid to click for the baby. So I did. I don't like this shot and I can't stare even for a single minute. Can you?
