Superb photography!
I think a photography class should be a requirement in all educational programs because it makes you see the world rather than just look at it. Mr. Shujaat, you are doing excellent job.

@ Sahib, I agree with your idea that our students need tips on photography. Professional photographers may be invited to educational institutions for popularizing photography as a decent education and career option. It is common trend that every one wishes for having digital camera but how to take good photographs is not a simple job.
@JP, sorry for the comressed pictures but I hope at least two of them you can use as wallpaper. Thanks for your liking. Next time, I will keep this point in mind.
Although situation in Hunza Gojal is not that much dangrous but our tourism industry has badly affected due to the fear of lake outburst and lack of transportation. There is a big loss for the benificiaries like hotels, tranporters, shopkeepers, mountaineers, trekking guides, porters, cooks etc. At least they would not be able to earn what they were earning before due to the visits of local and foreign tourists. Lets think how revival of toursim is possible under current circumstances. It is a matter of our economic development.
Simply Great Lower Pamir.
I been to gumit, Gujal and feel v. sad to read that this area is under lake. Allah will certainly come to help people effected by this clamity because these folks are so innocent and kind and decent. I love these people and pray for them.
