My pictures with their little stories

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)

Pictures from the morning walk today As the winter recedes, one can see several changes around. The leaves start changing their colours and ultimately they take a bow. There is this tree near our place which throws up spectacular transition of colours around this time each year. Happened to pick up some nice pictures today morning. (shot on Fujifilm X100V)

Monsoon clouds over Pune skyline To see this out of the window first thing in the morning was enough to make me high. Fresh coffee was incidental. For a change, dark clouds brought hope and cheer and elevated the mood like nothing else can do.

Tree cover at Pune university It  was wonderful to experience this feeling of being surrounded, covered, protected and comforted from all sides by so many trees with their leaves of all hues and colours and most importantly shadows of different scales of black. One of the enduring and fascinating sights has been the play of sunlight through the tree cover. This sight has never stopped fascinating me as it continues to fascinate countless photographers and painters.
