This is an attempt to explore 4 elements namely Earth, Water, Air and Fire through a few photographs. Explore The Elements is a Travel Photoblogging Challenge organized by Thomas Cook.
Lets start exploring the element Earth, where we all are living.
Earth is a beautiful place indeed.
It can be very soft..
Soft, muddy land
At times it can be very harsh too..
Harsh deserts // OFFICIAL ENTRY // @ Desert, Sharjah, UAE
Or very rough and tough
Rough road leading to Tough mountain
Also it can be hard and Stubborn
Hard Rocks Caring the soft water
We can see that however tough the earth looks, it takes care and protects the water.
This leads to the exploration of next element Water.
Be like still water that gives you a true reflection of the self.
Colourful Reflections on water
Or be like flowing water that is moving so freely
Free flowing water
And make intrinsic patterns that comes with that freedom.
Patterns of Water
And flow around the obstacles with all your might towards the goal
Flowing around the obstacles
And be a free spirit to enjoy the freedom like flowing water
Enjoy the freedom // OFFICIAL ENTRY// @Kerala, India
Talking of the free bird, they are the kings and queens of sky. That leads to our next element, Air.
Fly high in the air, fly above your obstacles
Flying high
And enjoy the majestic flight..
Majestic Flight
Or be really become a free bird and enjoy life to its fullest
Be a free bird // OFFICIAL ENTRY // @Kerala, India
And expand your life and go up with air like lightness..
Or maybe like smoke..
Smoking up
Yes, the smoke that signals the starting of Fire.
Fire isn't fun to play with, but some rituals involves fire play

Step back and enjoy the beauty of all consuming fire..
The beauty of fire
And talk about life sitting around it
Sitting around the fire
And laugh at life's problems..

And explore all these elements again if you are interested.

It's a wonder idea 😀 And very well presented, the pictures are absolutely stunning 😀 Hard work and beautiful results ! Kudos 😀
Thank you so much. All the elements fell into the right place and so I could connect them. Glad you liked it. 🙂
The photographs are fantastic.. as well as your knack of describing it all in a few words. That makes the post all the more interesting.
keep up the great work..and keep travelling to all those interesting places 🙂
That is very kind of you. Thank you so much for the appreciation. I will try to travel as much as I can, and as much as the resources would permit me 🙂
Good luck for your future endeavours!

Its alright 🙂
Awesome...and I knew it 🙂 earth shots are great, especially the way you connected them with your words and I love the first two fore shots. Nice warm glow of fire looks beautiful. All the best for contest. However, need to mark one photo as official entry in each category. I missed it first in my post. Later updated as ThomasCook told me on twitter.
Thank you. Glad you liked the pictures and presentation.
Yea, they have informed me as well, to mark one picture as official entry. Now I am confused 😛
Hahahaaa...I went through the same 'ordeal' when they told me... 😉 😀 I think you have made wise choices. Best wishes for the contest and thank you for mentioning my blog. 🙂
haha.. I can imagine that. Glad you liked my choices 😀
Thank you and thanks to you for letting me know 🙂
