This is my family…every one, including the deceased and the extended ones! The opening image was shot the day entered holy matrimony. Tho other two couples are my parents, and my brother and his beautiful wife. The big family picture is that of my in-laws. Needless to say, I love each of them in my own…

Thatched Wonder!
I haven’t been to any other European city, so my point of reference is weak. But I have been told that such orange thatched roofs are quite a common sight to see across the continent. However, such roofs are rare to find in cities like Mumbai, where the humid climate doesn’t help at all. However,…
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…
Weekly Photo Challenge: Hidden
OK, you can’t really call this hidden, just a smart way to camouflage what it is, or present something it wasn’t meant to be. In most Indian banquets you will spot such vegetable based decorations, which I find fascinating, though I haven’t tried making any myself yet. How about you?

Weekly Photo Challenge: Comfort 2
I am a sucker for romance, and happily ever after stories. When I am feeling really low, I turn to my clean Mills and Boons collection of carefully picked romance novels. I can feel you roll your eyes, I mean yes, all stories have a standard storyline, but it restores my faith that when it ends…
Weekly Photo Challenge: Comfort
This is a door handle at the St. Nicholas Church, at the Old Town Square, at Prague, Czech Republic. This past month has been a bit rough on me and has managed to make me more resolute as a human being. It made me re-evaluate my choices and understand people’s perceptions and insinuations. The post…
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…
