Knock Knock ???

Well, I guess I have been away from this world for a long time.

Just thought of checking in to see, how active you all are...

This is me shooting by the side of Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada. I had some interesting moments there and was briefly involved in street photography and wild life.

Then I returned to Chennai, India and have been here for about three years now and very soon am relocating to a new city. Am sure I would have ample time to share my next phase, hopefully with more pictures.

Cheers.

The Answer!

என் கேள்விக்கு என்ன பதில்...!


I am Still waiting for The Answer...!

I had stopped taking self-portraits a while back. But when a friend of mine reminded, took this.

Surrounded

I'm an Island,
And you surround me...
She made me a poet,
What did you turn me into...

நான்தான் ஓரு தீவாய் இருக்கின்றேன்,
நீதான் என்னை சுற்றி இருக்கின்றாய்...
அவள் என்னை ஒரு கவிஞனாக்கினாள்,
நீ என்னை என்னவாக்கினாய்...

My Untranslatable Manuscripts

It's indeed hard to decipher some of the creations. This one is quite special...let me know if you felt like having a cup of coffee, looking at this :)



I have been quite busy...travelling just to take pictures. Now I have so much pictures, that I can write for years about my experience involved.

A Theory to relate to...

I liked physics only for one reason...because it had the theory of relativity. Only other theory that remains in memory next to the third law.

Journeys are quick and relativity is all over the globe...
Everyone is a racer in pursuit of a something...
One who realises that would know the real values that are being missed.

The Unknown Reach...

Do you know how far you can reach...

There are a lot of things that could be happening beyond our reach, which we might never know, like...

We could have -

...crossed some boundaries,
...broken some limits,
...made a difference for some,
...hurt some,
...made some think,
...amused some,
...turned something normal to magic for some,
...brought out few smiles on some,
...changed some forever,

As long as it is not known to us - it would be governed by:
...The law of the Unknown!

Not My Cup of Drink...

If this is an Elixir of Life...

...I would certainly not drink it, for I would only come across another set of selfish people.

The Illusionist...

He has waited all these years with the least hope of coming across the one, who still remains a mystery to him.


The shores of of Kerala would remain in his memories for two reasons. One is the ever smiling nature and the other for the moments, that would never come back. It has been a decade and the scenes are still fresh. It is indeed true that some smiles/ glance hardly last for few seconds but last for a lifetime.

It is a great surprise for someone who had believed that few things are possible only in movies, till that happened to him. It was only once he heard her voice and the echoes have not faded away yet. Strange that he landed on the social networking sites and even blogged...thinking that there could be a chance he could stumble upon her, just with a name. Interestingly it only lead to further more mysteries. It is a fact that he is fascinated by the illusions, but certainly not of these kind. While he likes the technology that has been growing rapidly, he hates it for happening a little too late.

Certainly this would not make a difference now. It is hard to describe a feeling which does not have a definition yet, may be simply because knowing a name and face does not disqualify the person under the 'Stranger' category. Does it? And it seems very likely that the face would fade off his memories too.

Whatever...he may capture lively moments, create illusions and captivate the perspectives he favours the most. But certainly he does not savour the reality that he could not capture the stranger who photographed him a decade back.

Destiny!...he would definitely believe in it if he meets her to 'thank' before the end of his journey, for she has been always in the corner of his mind with each of his creations...

Just not what you think...

Sometimes not the most beautiful thing, is the one that attracts my attention...

Something:
...that stays as what it is,,
...reflects the inner world,
...lot subtler than sublime,
...that gives me a sense of belonging,
...anything that is a lot like me.

That backdrop is water...if you are curious :)

As the leaves fall...

As the leaves fall...
And the colors change...
Wind gets so cold to embrace me like a hot spring...
Everything else seems blurred...
Only a moment of emptiness...
Stare that does not belong to a place...
Only noise I hear are the brustling leaves...

My wait has been longer than her ride...
...she could ever imagine.

Diamonds Unpacked ) *** (

Nature's gift...come mostly unpacked :)

I bought a gift for a friend when I visited India, even though there was a very little chance of meeting. It was a beautiful work, comparable to this.

I really couldn't ignore a friend who thought I was full of something...

For those who are curious, its a shot that I took without viewing...two reasons - its tough to keep the neck unless I have a Giraffe's & the other one due to excess dew on grass. People who know technical aspects will know how tough it is to get this...

Count 'less'...

Those who don't know me, will see and know only one name from the stones. But I know few names that are on there. Many that I am not aware of...will be a surprise as they flip in the journey.

I seriously don't remember few characters...after all these years. Probably applies to many out there.

And for sure I could be in many forgotten list too :)

Crossing the Borders...

Everytime I break my Barriers, it simply does not go anywhere...

Wherever I go, I find myself right where I don't want to be...sometimes when someone hesitates even to become a friend, really makes me wonder.

Colors were just too good to walk past without a click :) it should seem to you as if am on air like David Blaine...

Face of an Illusionist...

World is a better place to everyone who can see it differently. It's just that people are the one's who disappoint me - no matter how differently I see.

It's like sleeping in the shades of a tree along the coast on shore...
...getting up early in the morning
...stretching while watching the dawn

...almost like that for a post after a long break. Just to let know that am still out here... :)

To follow...pictures I click with my mobile. My theme would remain the same. However you would have to bear with the picture resolution for now. 2MP camera can offer only a limited...sharpness!

The Creature...

To me one of the most blank, hard hitting, utterly, subtle word that is not so commonly used is 'Creature'

We all were created as part of the universe and the way we gained superiority over the other creatures (known to us) through evolution is something beyond our control. Nature has been the sculptor all along, shaping us...

But He, only knows where we are headed - among the destructions & constructions we create.

Creatures for Creations or Destructions ?

Some of these patterns should be a designers delight...may be a fashion designer (...what do you say Bhusha) should say! I might get these on my T-shirts, if I get a chance!

Let me know if anyone needs :)
