As Frances Shea’s character said in movie Legend (2015) – “The world is quite like London. It’s not good, it’s not bad, it just is. There’s no morality or dishonor, just your own lonely code. Until your race is run. Until the end. Until we’re all just ghosts of the people we once thought we were.” I like how London is compared to the world, … Continue reading We Vs Ourselves
I saw a dream last night. Happy dream, rare for me. In my dream, I heard a knock at the door. I got out of bed, opened the door and there I saw someone at the door, standing right there, in front of me. I remember, I was genuinely happy to see that person there. I can’t remember if I said anything. The rest of the … Continue reading Knock Knock
Happy Valentine’s Day (to whomsoever it may concern)! Not that I have anything against love, but somehow, almost every year, this day passes like any other day for me. I have been in fairly awkward situations in the past because of missing this day. Once I ended up booking a table in a fancy restaurant with my cousin (we both had missed what day it was) on valentine’s … Continue reading It’s [Just Another] Valentine’s Day
AtoZ – there is a whole world of words in-between! Ever thought what is the longest word you can type using a single row of a QWERTY keyboard? TYPEWRITER Irony, isn’t it?! 🙂 Continue reading Irony
Speaking of dreams, art and dreams have always been interlinked, be it ancient paintings on some cave walls or be it more contemporary forms of arts. Photography, however, is odd one out when it comes to an artist’s ability to link his dreams to his work (presuming here that photography is an art as much as any other form of art). A singer can sing to express … Continue reading Dreams, Clicked.
This is this the monochrome image of the week and also entry to Monochrome challenge at Leanne Cole Photography. ‘Dreams’ is a very tricky concept with so many meanings and interpretations. Word dream may mean a wish or an ambition or a strong desire of something or merely a vision one sees while asleep. Irony of human nature is that there are dreams we don’t get … Continue reading London Dreams : [Monochrome Image of Week 10082015]
When it comes to birthday gifts, I never disappoint myself. This time it was a Canon 24-70mm F/4 L IS USM lens. I had been planning to get one for a while and this looked like a perfect excuse. This photo is one of my early experiments with the lens and so far, it has met every single expectation I had from it. Even without going into technicalities of the image, its … Continue reading The ‘L’ League
I have been posting a series pictures of Eiffel Tower I had taken on my last trip to Paris (also my first). As I always say, there are infinite possible combinations of weather, sky color, mood, time, lighting and places from where photo is being taken. Every photo of Eiffel Tower taken at any juncture is unique in itself. These are the last two of … Continue reading Concluded – The Iron Lady Portfolio
Flying makes me nervous. And that turbulence when crew acts like nothing is happening, it freaks me out. Someone like me should not see something like this. I had heard Heathrow Airport is busy but what is this? Is it like “I’ll land first, I’ll land first!”?? 🙂 Continue reading Aviophobics’ Nightmare : From Latest London Visit
I tell truths, loud and clear, often inconvenient, so easily that they stare at me. As if I did something inhuman or as if they are asking me if I was kidding. I stare back – “What?!” Radical honesty is really easy to practice once it becomes habit. And it is not that difficult for people around you too, once they start knowing you well. The … Continue reading Conversations : #1 Radical Honesty
