To be fair, Red Fort hasn't changed a lot more than 300 years. 25 years is nothing compared to that.

Where is this from? It looks surreal.

Haa haaa Haa, that's what I meant.. Wanted to add a winking emoji, but you can't add them while on mobile...

I didn't take pics or visited the buildings / barracks that British had built in the premesis...
Believe me there are plenty of those eye sores there...

Why not?

The workmanship on the red fort is so exquisite.

What other fort in the world can compete as far aesthetics go? The European castles I guess. Many of those around.

Forts aren't meant to be pretty. They're supposed to keep the barbarians out

Forgot to mention the location, it's Tawang, Arunachal Pradesh.

Do you guys use dry cabinets to keep your cameras and lenses?

Do you guys use dry cabinets to keep your cameras and lenses?

Yes, along with monitoring the temp/humidity using a xiaomi mijia sensor.

Loved the sky

Yes, along with monitoring the temp/humidity using a xiaomi mijia sensor.

Which one would you recommend?

I've kept my camera and lenses in a cupboard and haven't had any issues in 10-15 years, but I guess it might make sense if someone has expensive gear and lives in a humid environment.

Which one would you recommend?

I have the Hiniso Ad-50c, got it for ~10k. Has temp/humidity readout (not what I'm using to monitor) and keeps the relative humidity down below ~50%, with the sensor placed at the exact opposite corner (built in display reads ~30%), even with BLR humidity reaching 80%+ this week. Friend uses a smaller cabinet, Ad-20c (iirc), and they have larger sizes as well.

I did a desi jugaad. I keep the camera and lens in air tight container with one of Absorbia Moisture Absorber !
Works well in humid conditions of Mumbai !
