The Himalayan Revelation

Some time ago Pankaj Misra got in touch and said he had a book he's written that needed a cover. Since it has Hampi featured in it and then it goes all the way to the Himalayas and China even, it got me interested, and this is what i did for him . . .

Here i have used two images that i shot when i was in Chickmagalur, Karnataka. At one of the hills in Mullayanagiri.

The type for the title design has a nice colored drop-shadow which was spot laminated. i went berserk on the colors for this cover!, quiet different from what i usually do.
