The King and His Camera -II





Over the years, I have developed a deep sense of passion and love for photography. In fact, I have developed a special relationship with nature and photography. Every step I set, I find a special place for photography –it calms my mind and consoles my soul. I can connect well with my everyday happenings. I can also relate it to my profession and upbringing. 

It is both humbling and inspiring that our great king continues to bless us not only with extraordinary leadership but also with great workmanship of sharing and connecting our countryside especially people, nature, avifauna and development. Nonetheless, lives and activities of our rural communities and youth have deeply touched and are the king's favourite subject. 

We are witnessing a great transaction in our country and around the world in the field of nano-chips, which is becoming the ultimate super power and our king is so concerned to live upto like the other developed nations in the world. And the king shooting the countryside and his people is the true symbol of great virtue, kindness and care, and a new generation of thinking. Not to mention development, modernity and globalization in the heart of our king. And photography is one small part that unites people in one frame, a Royal Frame that will remain for eternity.

Our king's photographs are truly representative of the Bhutanese people from all walks of life, especially from the remotest pockets to the modern lifestyle that our people are adopting from the west. Our king taking time in collecting photographs of all beings and landscape is a symbol of the Royal concern, knowing his people and country, knitting his heterogeneous society in one single frame, above all, it resonates His genuine love, kindness, and timelessness for his country and people. 

This will be one of the greatest legacies of a king looking utmost loyal to his country and people. It is truly a work of nation-building. It is to improve the lives of his people no matter how far and unlucky the places are, the king is always guiding and saving us tirelessly like a true son. The love we receive from our monarch is counted in every shutter button pressed to make a royal footprint and legacy.

Iron Lady of India dies at 68.

It was neither a good news to millions of Tamilian nor to the parliament house. But, she will continue to remain one of the most influential person in politics and in the film industries. Perhaps, she became more than the goddess of Tamil Nadu politics. She has been a greatest asset to her country in her best pursuit. The women who has ruled India more like 'Gandhian Philosophy.'   Jayalalithaa jee She has done every preeminent possible ways to bring massive changes in the life of millions of people and uplifted the Indian society than any other women. She had worked so hard, she had risk every bits of her life just for the benefit of all the Indians because of which she had gained a huge popularity amongst the other leaders. She was popularly known as an ‘ Iron Lady ’ for being tough and firm in her action and ‘ Amma ’ for acting more than a mother for millions of homeless and to the needy ones.’   The best part I have seen throughout her political regime and fil

Golden Words Of King Jigme Singye Wangchuck

King Jigme Singye Wangchuck "...in particular, speaking for myself; my sorrow in having lost my own father is indeed very great.

Goodbye Beloved Teachers

When life has thousands reasons to walk and live, I've thousands different ways to spend my coming holidays. So, does you all my ‘teacher-colleagues’ I've been working so hard for nearly, 280 days round the clock in, educating different lives with different wants, likes and ages. Honestly, I've been so busy and fully occupied for countless hours of teachings, correcting exam papers, assessing note books etc… – and that is called the life of a ‘every tangible teachers’. As a teacher/educator, almost every time - life goes beyond teaching and correcting exam papers. As, we need to engage our students into various fields of learning – going for extra classes, attending club activities, prayers, co-curricular activities, literary activities, cultural programs and so on…and this is the life of each teacher behind the screen. Yet, we get lots of blame starting from the people of highest rank to the lowest. In Bhutan, now a day in the name of suicide case, educa
