Tibetan Buddhist prayer flags are a common sight in Sikkim. The concept is truly beautiful. Prayers are written on flags and put up. The wind plays its part in letting the flags flutter and the symbolic reciting of the prayers.

Made this painting of prayer flags across a frozen Tsomgo (Changu) Lake on 22 June 2005.
