Kashmiri boatmen row their boats on the waters of Dal Lake in Srinagar May 30, 2007. For Dal Lake, an ebb in Kashmirs separatist insurgency and tentative peace moves between India and Pakistan has come none to soon. Raw sewage, land encroachment and years of neglect have been threatening the survival of a lake where visitors from Mughal emperors to George Harrison once enjoyed the idyllic stillness of its waters surrounded by Himalayan mountains.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of Dal Lake in Srinagar, India. Taken on May 30,2007, it showcases Kashmiri boatmen gracefully rowing their boats on the tranquil waters of the lake. Against a backdrop of majestic Himalayan mountains, this scene exudes tranquility and peace. However, behind this idyllic setting lies a tale of struggle and resilience. The caption highlights that Dal Lake has faced numerous challenges over the years. The ebb in Kashmirs separatist insurgency and tentative peace moves between India and Pakistan have brought some respite to this cherished natural wonder. The survival of Dal Lake has been threatened by issues such as raw sewage, land encroachment, and neglect. Despite these obstacles, the lake continues to enchant visitors with its timeless allure. From Mughal emperors to legendary musician George Harrison, many have sought solace in the stillness offered by its pristine waters. Photographer Fayaz Kabli skillfully captures both the fragile state of Dal Lake and its enduring charm through his lens. This print serves as a reminder that even amidst turmoil and uncertainty, nature's beauty can prevail if we strive to protect it.
