Utsab Roy Chowdhury from Kolkata sends in this picture of the Gurudangmor Lake in North Sikkim.

He writes, "The Gurudongmar Lake is situated 18000 ft. above sea level along the Indo-Tibbet border. It is surrounded by snow clad mountains one three sides and its beauty is bound to leave you hypnotised."

Samindra Ray took this breathtaking picture of the Kailash Mansarovar on his way to Dharchula in 2005.

Nitin Grover sends in this a picture of the Ladakh region, which left him speechless.

The Lidder River in Pahalgam, Kashmir is the source of inspiration for this beautiful picture by Swarupananda Saikia who visited it early this year.

Another photo by Swarupananda Saikia, this time of the Yumthang Valley in Sikkim.

"This is one of the most beautiful places in India that I have visited. The locals call this a mini Switzerland."

Raju Gupta writes, "Ladakh is all snow or sand. Greenery is scarce and this is one such rare view. It looks more like a painter's job than of a photographer.  We visited Ladakh in 2005 and enjoyed the snow fall every day. Recently, we also visited Switzerland but found Ladakh second to none."

Subhojit Chakladar writes of this picture, "During the Goecha La trek everybody is focussed on the Kanchenjunga massif or peak of Pandim due to its proximity. But Tenzing Khang, even though a much smaller peak, looks much more dramatic when seen from this side. We were unable to reach Goecha La due to bad weather and were in low spirits. While having lunch near the Samiti Lake (at the base of the pass) we spotted this beautiful peak which boosted our morale!"

This picture is of a breathtaking place is called the Drang-drung Glacier shot by Aditya Kumar during his road trip from Kargil to Zanskar valley in July 2009.

"This picture has been taken from our hotel room, in a hidden jewel of a place called Cloud End near Mussorie. Situated very close to Mussorie and yet hidden away from all the humdrum and madness, Cloud End is in the middle of a sanctuary. This picture was taken early morning from my bed through the window of our room," writes Vaibhav Sharma from New Delhi

Sandip Chakrabroty shares this photo of Kedarnath with us. He writes, "It was a journey of a lifetime. Exotic beauty of ice-capped mountains mixed with religious flavour was heavenly."
