‘The road to Leh, Ladakh was far from the most comfortable journey I’ve ever embarked upon, but what it lacked in elbow room and smooth tarmac it more than made up for in visual masterpieces for the entirety of the 15 hours from Keylong. We were stopped at one of several passport checkpoints on what can only be described as a dirt track winding its way through the majesty of the Himalayas, when these horses - carrying goods to meet tourist demands - were ushered off the road and down the ravine to the stream below. As their guide encouraged them enthusiastically, if not brutally, with a rather large and thick stick to the rump, the lead horse became entangled in the guiding wire. Panic ensued as it tried to free itself from the hindrance, it kicked and flayed chaotically, creating this scene as its comrades followed calmly and cautiously behind. Miraculously, no horses were injured, and when all 5 of them safely arrived at the stream, the only evidence of the recent bedlam came in the form of a few red apples rolling gingerly down the hill.’
