Photo story: It rained in Dehradun

It rained in Dehradun today and the view couldn't get better. The roads were muddy, the sky was clear, the sunset looked beautiful and the mountains were clearly visible.

While going on a cycle ride I thought why not post a photo story about today. So here it goes - An ode to the first winter rain of Dehradun.

The Ugly Side

Let me start with the ugly side of the rain first. This road was dug for some pipeline work and even after many months (I cannot remember how many probably more than 2 months) the road is still not repaired. 

The hand which didn't grow them

A sarso flower for the ongoing farmers' protest. We cannot survive without them. 

"I am constant"

The perfect sunset point near Subhash Nagar. During the lockdown, I came to this spot every evening just to see the sunset. This spot never disappoints.

The cloudy affair

                                 

It is a rare sight. The mountains are only visible when it rains or some other day only known to scholars and God.

Hanging there

The droplets are hanging on the wire because the clothes cannot. 

Hope

We hope for the sun after it rains. We are hoping for a vaccine. We hope to live happily. Hope is what we need right now. This picture represents hope.
