Look out for an opportunity..

During these hols i went back home!! I had a chance to go to our house where we lived for 15 years (now we have changed our house..) !! Right from my birth i was there.. Also the house is as old as i'm now... Took out my camera and started taking pictures for a remembrance... And this picture was taken in my room.. Too bright outside.. I used the metering technique to capture the brightness at the window alone.. Ipch.. Finally came out well!! I was wondering on seeing this picture then... Seems to be more accurate for me.. Waiting for the windows to open!! Something like waiting for a good oppportunity in life...

Mushroom Towers

Its raining hard in Chennai. Result: Mushrooms all around our campus.. These mushrooms seemed to be nice.. A click!! It really came out well.. !!!

Atomic Explosion of Clouds

While travelling to Madurai, the climate was cool and was getting prepared to rain. Saw clouds rising like an atomic explosion. Took a snap from the moving train!!!

Mushroom

So nice to mushrooms.. Not only for eclogists!! But for me too.. I found these mushrooms near my room.. So nice were those rings!! Spent some time on its beauty and took some snaps..

My friend Siddaarth told me that mushrooms make ecologists happy since they yield protein to the trees.. He explained a lot more concepts behind it!! All i could infer was that the growth of mushroom is a good sign..!!!

2 Fast 2 Furious

One more photo from the night collections!! Tried to trap a van speeding at a high speed.. ipch.. cud only get the trace of its head light!!! A fine streak of head light from the van in red makes a rich look for the abondoned koturpuram road!!

A night ride at Mount Road

These 2 photos were taken at Mount Road, few days back, at around 11.30 in the night, while returning after treat... These are streaks of headlight from cars and bikes on the other side of the road.. The reason for such an effect is that I used the night mode for taking the snap!! In the night mode, the aperture speed is slow, taking long time for capture. Since more amount of light falls into the lens and the object is in motion, i got a streak of light!! If i wasnt riding, then there wudn't have been any motion blur giving much more effect to the photo!!

As usual expecting ur valuable comments...

Clouds of anger and hatred

(PS-ed version)

While taking a snap of the mountains near my school (Nagamalai) from the terrace of my house, luckily i got two pigeons sitting in opposite directions. Got a myriad of thoughts on seeing it..

Some of them include..

1. One is male and the other female for they are of different colours. Of course, male is black as always ( ;) ).
2. Probably there may caste problems between them like in mankind. (Hope it is not like that!)
3. Each one may be waiting for their air route to get cleared. (Even there are routes for airplanes. wont birds have one?). Read a RFC of using birds for transfer of data. This thought supports it.
4. They may be close friends showing their back out of anger.
5. They may be lovers sitting far-but-near after a terrible fight.
6. (*) They may be siblings. White is the sister of the black brother!! They may be sitting near-but-far after a terrible quarrel actually for nothing. May be each one expecting the other one to give up their anger and speak. But they themselves not giving up the anger.
7. This wud be the best of thoughts i got since it was sitting in my house's terrace reminding me of my quarrels with my loving sister.

P.S.: If the two pigeons are sitting after a quarrel then it shud not be the right place since they are sitting on top of my house's terrace at ''Shanthi Sadhan'!!.

(Dedicating this post to two of my friends who arent speaking to me for a long time [one for 3 years and the other for a month and more!] . Hope they give up their anger and speak to me at the earliest!!)

11th Finger

For many, cellphone has now become the 11th finger in their hand. A second without mobile is something like a minute without air for them (Theory of relativity ??) ... This post is dedicated to all cellphone lovers !!
I tried taking snaps of my new mobile. Nokia 1112 !! The first and the last snaps are the ones i like the most.

Lord Krishna

To start my photoblog with God's grace, lemme put the snap of my mom's master piece!! This glass painting was done by my mom in about a month's time. So awesome that i used to stare at it always when i get back home.. Tried enriching the picture by giving more exposure, but lack of tripod resulted only in blurred images... This is the only snap with a good framing i cud take!! Eagerly expecting ur comments abt the painting rather than the snap.....
