Kaleidoscopic Skies
There were some plans to travel this weekend but I in the end cancelled my tickets today. Maybe next week, maybe not but will travel soon. In the meanwhile I took my daughter’s toy and tried to create a cool image in my own backyard! Enjoy the Kaleidoscopic sky!
The Sunset Brightens My Daily Commute
My daily commute to my workplace is a long one. Combined with out Indian way of driving it is a tiring journey usually. Also a lot of it is through drab and concrete filled places. But on Wednesday this week nature decided to brighten up my commute! I took this with my cellphone and I…
High on Malaysia!
I did a brief trip to Malaysia in May 2012 and I have to say the country completely amazed me! It was a stop on a short notice so I had very little idea as to what to expect. I came back completely awed. The infrastructure was sound, the city clean and the people friendly….

High Rise!

And then there was a Rainbow!
When it was a bit sunny and there was a bit of rain I started hoping. I love rainbows and I don’t get to see many. The trouble was that when the rainbow started happening I was on my way back from work. I actually parked my car on the side and took out my…
