A bird takes flight at Horniman Circle Garden, Mumbai


The construct of this shot was not deliberate or planned. It just happened. As I was getting ready to shoot the magnificent edifice of Asiatic Society as seen from inside Horniman Circle Garden, this bird came in landed in front of me. I hesitated for a moment for my shot and it suddenly took off giving me that fantastic moment wherein I could capture the bird in its early flight and the shadow on the floor below. Thank you Sir.

Texture on the wall at Gangtey Gonpa, Bhutan

Texture on the wall at Gangtey Gonpa, Bhutan There is this imposing wall to the right on way to Gangtey Gonpa in Phobjikha Valley in Bhutan .  The wall is obviously quite old.  Time and weather seemed to have played magic and created a wonderful textural effect.  The range of emotions these textures aroused were as varied as the patterns created - beauty, awe, complexity, mystery, melancholy, seeking answers and what not...It was a great experience to shoot these. The light was fading fast so there was not much time available. 

Colourful bylane

Cycling on Mandalay Line Mandalay line in Range Hills at Khadki is one of my favourite areas for cycling. It is quiet with little traffic. It passes via what used to be the Bomb Disposal Squad campus. Their unit shifted sometime ago. Last week when I was cycling on this stretch, noticed this bylane with brilliant colours of Bougainvillea and Gulmohar . The presence of a red car and a black dog who kind of posed for this picture, added the drama. (Pune, June 2022)
