Can you see that flicker of a rainbow across my face resonating towards the valley?
Yup. That’s me exuding positive energy :)
Ok. Ok. It just so happened that the sunlight touched the lens of my camera and voila! A rainbow appeared in the picture! Also, I’m really not going to get into the technicalities of it, therefore if you’d like, leave me a comment and I’ll elaborate 🙏🏻
This picture was taken atop the Altit Fort in Hunza. I’ve currently been overcoming my fear of heights to the hilt whilst roaming the streets of beautiful Hunza. Just a brief history, Altit Fort is unquestionably one of the greatest monuments of Gilgit Baltistan. Shikari Tower of Altit is almost 1000 years old, making it the oldest surviving standing structure in the Karakoram. Also, when you’re there, ask for Karim Bhai to give you a tour. He’s the best!
