Last sunset beyond the mountain (Mizoram)

It was 31 December 2012 everybody in our village preparing themselves for new year eve celebration, i went up to a small hill, which is not very far from my home where i often watched sunsets since my childhood. To my mind if i could capture the sunset scene over the horizon it would be the last sunset for the year 2012. The last sunset of 2012 was already gone, we are having new days now, there's many sunset lied behind the mountain everyday but this picture will be memorable one for me as it was taken before i said "adieu 2012". After clicking the last sunset i went down to the street and from a distance i can heard this beautiful song "I thil tih zawng zawng saw thlir teh, hunin a liam pui saw, chatuan hmun lo thlen khalh tur che, Lal hma a din pui tur" played by our neighbouring house (This song must be played on every 31st Dec). While reaching home Dad asked "where have you been?", i replied "Just clicked last sunset on the hill", he said "I hope you enjoyed  it and get ready for dinner!".

One winter night in Aizawl

Unlike mainland India most of us in Mizoram usually have dinner before 7 P.M, the sun also sets before 6 P.M during winter season. Now i am staying Aizawl for a while, it was around 4:45 P.M me and my younger brother already done cooking for dinner and waiting for big bro came home from office. For time pass i was in verandah looking around our nearby houses and i saw many of them already started their Christmas house decorations (Christmas is the main festival in Mizoram). While i was thinking about the upcoming Christmas i can hear the announcement from local information centre which said  local council and YMA informing local youths to be there at the main street for Christmas decoration. At the beginning of December in every year Aizawl and bigger towns in Mizoram, the local people often collectively decorated to their respective main streets for Christmas, it is now popularly known as 'kawn chei' in Mizo. I think in this year also there will be more street decoration to be seen in Aizawl and other towns as well. As we were still not yet done dinner i clicked these pictures from our verandah and our landlord garage, you may think Christmas season has already started in Aizawl.
