I was thinking today how much I have started taking air travel for granted thanks to the low cost airlines. But when I was growing up, the only domestic airline was Indian Airlines and air travel much beyond our reach. The first time I got inside a plane was when I was already doing my Ph.D. If…

Lazy Sunday Photo- From a Plane Window
I want my plane windows to be clean or else a lot of beautiful pictures turn out to be hazy!
Skywatch Friday- Sky from a Flight
I know this could have been anywhere! But just to give you some idea I took this one on a flight from Dubai to Manchester in November 2009. After this I have taken only one more flight, from Delhi to Bangalore but I have acquired a new past time now, to click pictures of the…
New Notice at IGI Airport New Delhi?
I think this notice is new at the Delhi Airport. Not that I go to airports quite frequently but I cannot recollect seeing this before.

Lax and What Else?
I like Emirates. I have flown with them twice, once in 2002 and the other in November 2009. But could not resist posting this one. I wonder how I managed to click ‘Lax and …’ instead of relax and …’ I took this picture at the Manchester airport. And while I am talking of the…
Nature- The Biggest Inspiration
Once again the picture was taken from the flight from Dubai to Manchester, somewhere over Alps. On that trip I did only two things, watched back to back movies and clicked pictures of th scene below, left right and center. Most of the times, when I would find the movie slow I would look out…
