View of Oxford City from Saint Mary’s Church I came back yesterday and was dead tired even though I had all the three seats to myself on the Jet flight and lied down listening to Hindi old songs for a long time, even managed to sleep for a few hours. Today, I managed to upload…

Hi from Oxford
Right now I am in Oxford and the second time around the places are a bit more easy to find. It is raining cats and dgos and the days go in meetings but I managed to walk around a lot on day 2 and plan to do the same in the remaining of the stay….
Heading Out Soon!
Would be heading out soon for a week in UK, mostly work. But will have a camera in hand too, actually make it two. Wish to buy a new lens but not sure if I will manage to. I need this break. Not the most ideal break but a break nonetheless.
Lazy Sunday Photo- Taj Mahal from Agra Fort
Taj Mahal from Agra Fort I wonder how my two nephews agreed to stand for this picture. Well, in those days I had no SLR and the my first digital camera, the Nikon Coolpix 3200 gave me this kind of a hazy zoom. Even with the SLR I have a wide angle lens. Hopefully, things…

Tentative Travel plans for this Summer
The first stop this summer seems to be Oxford in June for about a week, and no the visa god’s judgment is yet to be pronounced. Visa gods willing, this time I will try punting, take a walking tour and go on top of the church in Radcliffe Square at Oxford. I will eat at…
Bomings in Jaipur
7 bombs are said to have gone off in Jaipur. So many dead, the Indian news channels going their usual way, all cacophony, here is the discussion on Indiamike. I have spent quite some time near Jaipur and Jauhari Bazar (Jeweler’s Market) is quite a familiar place for me where I used to shop. Certain…
Near Abby Falls Coorg
Spotted this ‘Danger Spot’ board near Abby Falls in Coorg. I wonder what was the danger that this board was warning us about. One completely unrelated danger that I can see is that if I am not careful, my travel plans for 2008 are in real danger. I mean it is May and I have…
