The moon, my cleanser!

In my childhood days, whenever I was afraid of any of my mistakes or hurt my brother and or anything that I feel guilty of doing it, I would try to isolate myself from the deafening crowd, find a lonely place and hide myself. As days passed by, I would find some place that is dark, sit for sometime, contemplate, reprimand myself. This activity took a different angle , one day I when I was sitting in dark, the Moon emerged out of the dark blanket of clouds, I watched it in amazement. I felt it symbolizes that I am cleansed of my mistakes, my fear and now I am a new man. Today, I took my camera to my terrace and watched the moon, it didn't cleanse me. I silently watched it, "You are beyond redemption and salvation", heard a voice from somewhere... Is that you moon?!

Tried & Tested

A few tests proved to be okay. This taught a lot, would try some more with the lessons learnt as the platform.

7 - 8 pm Power cuts

Today's power cut was utilized to click my neighbor Deepti's pictures, just the candle light as source of light.

Yahoo building, Bagmane Tech Park

YAHOOOOO!!!

The more I click, the more I feel clicking this building in various weather & lighting conditions. While on the way back home, stopped at this building and shot it with a Tripod. Clicked a couple of other pics of BHEL gate while the traffic was too heavy and everyone was in a rush to go home. I was immensely surprised by the madness surrounded by a traffic policeman. He was unperturbed facing the dirt, blaring horns, impatient motorists, and the speeding buses. He gestured left and right to manage the madness with the precision of an opera organizer. Hats off!!!

My Jewel Fish just laid more than 100 eggs and I captured it this time!

My notorious jewel fish pair appeared to be very normal, very rare. Calm, yet an unknown discomfort could be seen through out their swim. Just then Raina got out against the kings eleven Punjab, I saw something very unusual on the stones that were placed inside the tank. OoowwaaW.... on the palm size stone, there were eggs glittering, just like their mother, more than a hundred and she was still laying. My joy knew no bounds. Clicked, checked and clicked again for more closer shots. Here they are... for you to njoi!!!!

The day I was waiting for...

06:45 Am

When my alarm snoozed 05:30 am, I was still in slumber speculating whether to venture out or not. I've always told suki that I wanted to click the pigeons in front of the Amber High court building. Parked my bike near the high court as there was enough security to safeguard my beloved Arjun (My Bajaj Discover DTSI - SI). It was very pleasing to see lens men like me carrying a Nikon or a Canon, clicking and reviewing immediately with a noticeable smile on their face. Dad's with curious kids, shuttle cork enthusiasts, obese men and women walking so fast thinking that the body fat may just melt through their legs. Fitness folks running and Jogging in colorful cotton and branded shoes. A lady with 8-10 Labradors, practicing yoga in their company. She didn’t bother the ogling crowd when she was on a "Tree Pose". In fact they were looking at all her postures as she was too attractive for her age. I simply liked her Attitude. A crowd practicing laughter therapy and bending exercise, a few watching them wondering what makes these guys laugh for nothing? Skaters with head gears, a few reading news paper, some lost in their reminiscence of the past, a few working to get the Six pack that shahid flaunts with. Girls, wondering at the size of the Hounds and Danes. Tall daughter - short father, Caring mother - smoking dad, Kind hearted people feeding the pigeons and stray dogs - Cubbon Park is full of life.

A curious on looker said “someone hung himself from a tree, go click. You are from the press right?” Just moved away from him, why would I click someone who is stupid enough to die in a world full of life? Who knows what his problem was. May be, caught in a Love triangle.

Its been a long time since I wrote something on my blog.

I had been to Gowtham vasudeva menon's "Vinnai Thaandi varuvaaya". A superb movie where simbu and Trisha cast a magic spell on the viewers with their amazing performance and they certainly have the chemistry. I sinked into the movie right from the word go. The movie is a Visual treat and a Photographer's delight. Manoj Paramahamsa has handled the camera. His camera made me forget Gowtham and

Ar Rehman's contribution to this movie. A must watch!

As we were a little early to the movie, Suki and I decided to click some pics. check out...
