I clicked this tender coconut at Ross Island. The trouble with clicking everything is that people give you quite an amazed look as if saying what is there to click in this? Well I still liked what I clicked! Andaman is full of coconut tress and tender coconut. I enjoyed drinking coconut water throughout…

Sunrise at Havelock, Andaman Islands
This was the sunrise of the last day of my vacation at Andaman. The place is Havelock. I made a special effort to get up at the dawn and see what kind of a sunrise I was going to get. For a while I thought the sky was not going to put up a…
Sea Shell Resort, Havelock
These are the cottages at the Sea Shell Resort at Havelock. The rooms are air conditioned and it was definitely needed in October. I found the rooms comfortable and it has TV as well, which I hardly watched. Can you see how many coconut trees the resort has? No wonder, at lunch they would…
A Boat at Havelock
My photography experience at Andaman was such a challenge. First my wide angle lens started giving me error 99. Imagine yourself at Andaman and your wide angle lens behaving in a moody fashion! I realized it was the lens because the 70-300mm lens was working without problems. But what to do with 70-300 there?…
Havelock, Andaman Islands
This was the scene just behind my hotel at Havelock. It was Sea Shell Resort where we stayed and even though it feels like a very short trip, particularly the Havelock part, it was incredibly beautiful.
Red Cheeked Bulbul at Ross Island, Port Blair
I clicked this red cheeked bulbul at Ross Island, Port Blair. Port Blair is full of them. I heard from our guide at the Cellular Jail that when Vir Savarkar was serving his time there, he remarked that it was the song of the bulbuls that gave him solace. Now we can go inside the jail…

Sis Ganj Gurdwara, Chandni Chowk, Delhi
Sis Ganj Gurdwara, Chandni Chowk, Delhi I had been to Chandni Chowk sometime in June this year. I went there to get my camera sensor cleaned. It took them quite sometime to do so. While I was waiting I saw a variety of street food on display and people enjoying it. It is a pity…
Attar (Ittar) Bottles from Mussoorie
I saw this display of Ittar (oil based perfume) at the Mall Road, Mussoorie. The shop owner was engaged in a conversation with a buyer and I got a few moments to click the picture. Wikipedia has an interesting article on natural perfumes. I am not a big fan of perfumes but had another…
The Cemetery at Mussoorie
The last time I went to Mussoorie it was on invitation from Ilbert Manor. On one of my walks on the Camel Back Road, I passed through the Mussoorie Cemetery. It had a small white gate marking the entrance. I 100% agreed with the notice outside. I do not like plucking flowers and I…
