Photography

Photography is another medium I like to express through...... I am not very regular at practising it, but  here are some of the few good clicks that I have managed....



Bound

I   am a voracious reader and  love the smell of  the pages in a book!.....This click represents that books today are bound and can only give so much knowledge unless otherwise explored by the reader.




                                                                           Bling!

This picture solely represents the girl in me!....



                                                                     Harmony

I click to me, represents how the paradoxes in nature like land and water , live in harmony  so well.We humans should really take a leaf out of their book.



In Perspective

I loved the  array of colours and clicked this on a street side chaat shop



Kolapuris

A macroshot of the good old  Kolapuri chappals.

The Tabla

This is really close to my heart because I love the  tabla.I clicked this at a tiny shop repairing tablas, nestled in a cranny of a busy street.



A Special Bound

I clicked this while in a bus.....I just love the intensity of this shot.



Across the River

At Singapore....



Potpourri

I clicked this at a side street at MG.  Road. It portrays my love for books perfectly!


Autumn

Dried leaves floating in the river.....


Paradox

I clicked this at a marketplace in Bangalore.The turban represents respect and royalty  in India and here was a man wearing one but sitting on the footpath mending shoes.The pardox is astounding.



Greek God

The Trevi fountain at Rome.....


Heritage

I found this huge wall painted about Karnatakas rich heritage and the coconut sellerin front of it emphasized it.


Boundless

 On the cruise.....



Merlion

Singapores' national symbol.....


First glimpse of snow

The first time I saw snow.....
