Taare Zameen Par. The scenery was perfect. Except for the trash that managed to photo bomb my composition. Modern image editing apps are powerful enough to erase it in one swipe. But I'd rather let it be. The past year has seen a positive change in the maintenance of deer park. Now only people's mindsets need cleaning. Also, this has been a fairly breathable winter, compared to recent years. #givemehopedelhi #cleanmindset #delhiwinter #wintermorning #fog #cold #morning #greenery #nature #serene #delhi #deerpark #hauzkhas
