I finally learnt about how the F/Stop works on my camera! Taken on a partly cloudy sky, you can see the sun peep out of a thin veil of cloud. And the rays look absolutely glorious! Don’t you think?

Passing Through the Ghats
On a rain kissed day, we decided to ride up to Malshej Ghats near Mumbai city. The destination offers some great views, but the ride through all those tunnels is just fun! Reminds me of times when I was a kid and I used to love the end of light at the tunnel. Fun days!
Wild and Free!
The nature has its own way of showing us that not everything pretty is desirable and not everything desirable needs to be pretty. This is pretty much a wild flower, that no one would want to pluck but adds a bit of beauty to its surroundings. Being wild and free ain’t that bad after all,…
Rise and Fall of the Meenas
If you ever visit the Amer Fort or Amer Palace, you cannot miss this stunning temple ruins standing awkwardly yet with pride in a seemingly modern setting. The temple has an amazing story too. Originally created by Raja Alan Singh Chanda, the Meena king belonging to the Matsya clan, the temple is erected for Goddess Amba whom they…
Lavender Skies, Towering High!
This stunning structure stands just behind my office building, and we were at a mezzanine terrace looking up at the towering structure. I have never witnessed a lavender sky ever before, so I was absolutely thrilled with the shot. What do you think?

Weekly Photo Challenge: Sunset 2
I got this shot on our visit back from the Ranthambore National Park, off a moving jeep. The picture is a bit hazy, but it was too amazing a shot to throw away. I love the tree silhouette that blocks the setting sun, accentuating it further, making the picture looks magical. What do you think?
Weekly Photo Challenge: Sunset
The setting sun, is a sad goodbye to times well spent, journeys throughly enjoyed and a live well lived. As a photographer, it’s probably nature’s perfect pose for the camera, but in my mind’s eye, it’s a time for reminiscence. For whatever its worth, good or bad, the faces of life and love teach us a new lesson every…
Monumental Bliss!
I seem to be bugging perfect strangers (yes, I am talking about you, my blogging friend!) with my constant rants about my first trip outside my country. But I can’t seem to get over the tourist syndrome I feel for Prague. In the picture, there are several beautiful monuments that describe the scenic beauty of…
Old Town Square at Prague
Old Town Square at Prague is usually bustling with visitors and is visually a very beautiful place to visit. You will find people meeting, having a beer, eating or just enjoying a splendid walk with the guides, understanding the history of Prague. In the picture, you can see the Gothic-style Church of Our Lady before…
