Dear Giby ji, How thankful I am to you for catching the mistake....!!
You are very right... I had made the mistake in gross ignorance and since my folders are jumbled up I did not notice it... BUT tracing back the time the photograph was taken... The first photo was not taken at the altitude of 2100 mts but at a LOWER ALTITUDE OF 1300 mts and the SECOND set was taken at an altitude of 2100 mts....
