Yūgen 幽玄: An awareness of the universe that triggers emotional responses too deep and powerful for words.

Night sky in Hunza (Location: Duikar, Hunza, 2019)

Here i stand in the shadow of these magnificent giants , lost . Billions of stars in the sky all letting you know of the paths ahead. The limitless beauty of the world wraps around me and takes me on a journey of life.

First light on Hunza Peak with Lady finger (Bublimotin) still in the darkness. (Location: Duikar, Hunza, 2019)
Lady Finger and Hunza Peak, (Location: Duikar, Hunza, 2019)

The silence is broken by the sounds of the morning. I look back and the light ignites the scenery.

Gilgindar, (Location: Duikar, Hunza, 2019)

Faraway in the distance , the light had started to paint the day on the other side.

Diran Peak, (Location: Duikar, Hunza, 2019)

The lights smooths out some of the harshness of the mountains, from a distance everything seems calm.

(Location: Duikar, Hunza, 2019)

The clouds would every now and then, wrap themselves around the sacred peaks to protect them from the harshness of the sun.

(Location: Duikar, Hunza, 2019)

And when the mountain would be ready to reveal itself to the light, the clouds would slowly hover above .

Golden Peak (Location: Duikar, Hunza, 2019)

The mountains around slowly started to wake up as light caressed their faces.

Chotokan Peak , Gilgindar and Golden Peak, (Location: Duikar, Hunza, 2019)

The light wrapped itself around the giants. The giants in all their magnificence, stood guard.

And then Rakaposhi arrived.
