THE UNEXPLORED PARADISE: THE ANDAMAN AND NICOBAR ISLANDS

Occasionally I get lucky to capture beautiful sunrises and sunsets with blood-red skies, and there are times I get trapped in a clear, boring sky. But the strange thing is, it will never be boring. The bare and clear space allowed me to explore the stars and the Milky Way at night.

It was one night around 7 or 8 pm on the shores of the Corbyn’s cove of the island group of Andaman and Nicobar, when I and my friend were all set to capture the cosmos with everything required, and most importantly with the excitement of being surrounded by the beauty of nature. As we stood on the shoreline listening to the sea waves, we could see the stars in the sky. Of course, with naked eyes, we enjoyed the view, the picture only acts as a memory.

The experience was serene and can't be explained in simple words and no doubt We have completely no control over what nature provides us each day but I am sure watching more night sky is always better than watching Netflix because it leaves you ever-contented. The view was real bliss to the eyes and soul.

"The horizon is the thin line that separates the golden and blue hours."

The sun has not yet risen. It's dark outside, and everyone is either sleeping or returning home from work. On the other hand, some fishermen have come out and are setting to work, preparing to catch fish. And if you're awake at this hour and planning to hit the bed, I'd say you're going to miss out on a lot.

it was around 5 am on the shores of Port Blair. I was ready with my tripod for capturing long exposures when I saw the clouds look dramatic every way possible. the sea was silent but the clouds and the sun were having fun with us, throwing lights on us. its reflection added to the beauty of the calm sea. such views and drama make Andaman and Nicobar Islands my favorite place.

The golden hour is essentially the first or last hour of sunlight, that is, the time before sunset and after sunrise. And the blue hour is the time before sunrise and after sunset. These are the most important hours of the day in the life of every photographer. We yearn for it. It is when we witness nature's pinnacle of beauty. It occurs when the sun tries to peek out from behind the clouds.
