Trip to Government College Lahore

Government College Lahore is one of the best colleges in Pakistan. Most of my family (me, my brother, mom and dad) studied there, my father also taught there briefly. During my current Pakistan trip, I had a chance to visit my alma mater. Every time I visit Govt. College, I am struck by its grandeur and humbled by its towering halls and rich heritage. It has been a privilege to sit in the same classrooms where the great philosophers and scientists of the last century like Dr. Iqbal and Dr. Abdus Salam first studied and then taught. Visiting government college was quite an experience, at times an over-powering one.

Here are some of the pictures I took. You can find the whole batch at my flickr site (http://www.flickr.com/photos/khurrammahmood/sets/72157601063600276/)

Colors of Lahore

As I was browsing around last night and missing Lahore, I thought why not make a collage of pictures showing the versatile and colorful nature of Lahore and of the Lahoris. So here it is 

I put as the background of my desktop and it looks really nice, of course I am biased. Feel free to use/edit. If you edit it, do share with us by posting it in comments.
