This Myna had everything going for it, it had a funky hairstyle, a great eye makeup but had no sense of lighting. Look where it decided to pose! Went to the shades, so there are shadows in the picture. However much I pleaded, it did not yield. I still like Dhaba birds as my models, they are…

Sparrows in the Backyard
My neighbor puts a lot of bird feed and I get to click the pictures. I wish I had the pose of the first sparrow along with the background of the second (loved that bougainvillea flowers background) but then birds are one of the worst models of the world. And yet when it comes to…
Lazy Sunday Photo- A Black Redstart Bird
I have posted a Black Redstart before but that was just the excitement of spotting a bird for the first time. But yesterday I managed to get better pictures at the same spot where I had found the Black Redstart a few weeks earlier.
Sharing a Shawl

Never thought something like this would happen to me because of my blogging! And I started blogging only because my sister and brother-in-law talked me…
Skywatch Friday- A View from the Skies
This is an aerial view on the flight from Ahmadabad to Delhi and that is why I am unhappy if I do not get a window seat. At the end of the year I am wondering why is it that the end and beginning of the year that get so much attention (including mine) every…
2010- The Places I Visited
January 2010 saw me going to Jim Corbett National and it was a wonderful trip. But no tiger sightings. I remember the fog in which we started off and the treks I did with my students. The next trip was to Bhimtal in February at the invitation of The Fisherman’s Lodge. I had a good…
The Taj Mahal Palace and Towers Hotel, Mumbai
Well if you click Gateway of India, you also click the Taj Mahal Palace and Towers. Next time hopefully I will make it before the sunset and manage better than a almost white and completely black sky!
