Nainital, located in the Kumaon foothills of the Himalayas, is renowned for its picturesque beauty and serene surroundings. The heart of the town is Naini Lake, surrounded by lush hills, offering boating and stunning views.
We had planned to go on a trail, but the park gate was still closed. It used to be 'open at dawn' but now not until 7am. Change of plan. A #silentsaturday instead at the lake on a cool (52F/11C) morning. A heron flew away as we approached.

I decided to roll the dice, that my CV joint on my car wouldn't blowup, for a run up north out of city lights to see the aurora--& I'm so glad I did! Two shots from northern California: First is from Doyle & the second is from Frenchman Lake. What an amazing display! For a time the aurora covered a 180 degrees from east to west & was overhead & could be seen in the south! I shot these photos with a 15mm f/2.0 30sec ISO400.
The bass are still busy spawning and sitting on their nests, but I was able to land one last night. My hollow deceiver looks skinny out of the water, but it has volume under water where the fibers aren't under tension.
Mom & I went for a lovely morning #NatureWalk at #ElkLake after my denturist appointment.
We only saw 2 other people on the trail. We had our morning tea, at the lake.
