Every time I go to Matheran, I like to go see the lake runoff from the Lord's point. I have clicked all three photos from the same spot, with the support of the same tree. It's a dangerous location with a wonderful view.

When the stomach growls on a Matheran afternoon, we usually head for Shabbir bhai's biryani. On the way there is this old house with a nice colour...

wonderfull lands ...

I traveled into fantastic lands ... of waterfalls, of hills shrouded in clouds, of green green nature ...

Mumbai Monsoons ...

Heavy rains in Mumbai city.  This is from our place in Goregaon, 11th floor.  I hate it that I am stuck in side ... :(

rain drops

I finally noticed the rain ... this midnight, on the Naka. It was nice - we listened to some soft songs on the phone while we waited and watched. Watched as the rain drops fell ...

photography raag

devotion - takes all forms


... what raag's I give sometimes to people ...

... but photography is not about the camera... it not about the (process of) capturing of light to depict something ... it is about _the_ something you are trying to depict... a 2d slice of a 3d life... a slice which will be it's own context ... it's this translation you need to think about ...the day you forget the camera and think of the photograph, I think you will be happy with your results .. :)
