One look at a bunch of red roses and you can feel the love oozing! The flower has been a symbol of love and passion. How many of them are there you ask? Well, there are 10, and all for my special day on the 10th of November. Shakespear said that a rose with any…

27 and Counting!!
Not a very appetizing shot I realize, but that is the best I could manage to get of the birthday cake before it was demolished and subsequently wolfed down. I turn 27 today, and I guess this the a good time to think back and thank all the people who helped me make it this…
Soak Up The Sun!
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!
Rang Heena Likhna
Mehandi, or Heena as it is called forms an integral part of all auspicious ceremonies. One look at the pattern, and you can figure out what is the occasion and which Indian region the lady belongs to; South Indian patters are more geometric in designs, while that in western India spots human figures. The patterns up north seems to have a more…

Meet Rocky!
By now, it is quite a well established fact that I love both toys and animals. So when I got a gift that offers the best of both worlds, I was ecstatic. Rocky is a cute little stuffed toy that looks as real as it gets He brings out he Calvin in me, if you know what I mean.Although…
More Fireworks!
These crackers are also a hit here. They are called flower pots, or anar. They tend to give out a lot of smoke too, but I got two hues this year, red and green. I didn’t know what to put up so I collated both together!
Coloring with Powder
Rangolies are an integral part of Diwali celebrations. Every house sports these colored powder patterns at their door steps, accentuated with diyas and lamps. This one isn’t mine, but a pattern I saw in front of one of the houses. Pretty neat, isn’t it?
Flying South
I love animals, (yes I know, I’ve said that often now) they give you the best expressions without inhibitions. All you need to do is set up your shot and be ready for little nuggets. Most times, you wouldn’t even realize what is so special with the shot, but rest assured your computer will throw…
