Neighborhood Bird Watch
Don’t go by the color of the water, this is a ditch in the neighborhood where lapwings are a regular feature. I have observed that these birds lay their eggs on the ground and if by mistake if you start walking that way, they scream and scream. I had first clicked this bird on a…
Hopefully Some of this is Abstract!
This week’s challenge at the Digital Photography School is abstract. I hope these water drops are a bit abstract and fits into the theme. These miniature oranges grow in my backyard. I always drool over them but I decided to do something about it today. When Chhavi started taking her afternoon nap I…
Non-Birding Pictures from Bharatpur
I associate the Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary with what else but birds. But today I decided to post a few non-birding pictures of the park. In the picture above is the long narrow road which is the main hub for bird watching. Blue Antelopes are also very commonly seen at the Bharatpur bird sanctuary. This one was…
Skywatch Friday- Uttarakhand Mountains

From the Streets of Jaisalmer
This picture was taken while roaming around the Jaisalmer Fort which is also known as Sonar Kila after a Satyajit Ray movie. We did not have much time, otherwise I am sure there would have been many other such interesting signs to capture.
Colorful Pictures from Dilli Haat
I visited Dilli Haat with my sister on Saturday. As usual it was a riot of colors. I thought I should do a photo feature on it. So here I go. These small miniature roses (not real) make for such a pretty picture. For some I am sure they make pretty decoration pieces as…
