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…

The Trip from Port Blair to Havelock on M.V. Makruzz
I was excited about traveling on M.V. Makruzz from Port Blair to Havelock. It was my first trip on a luxury boat! It was a fast, short and comfortable journey. The wait period was also not too long. The boarding was orderly, however when I did the trip, the boat was not full. This is…
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…
Skywatch Friday- Wandoor Beach, Port Blair, Andaman Islands
This was a beautiful evening from my recent vacation at Andaman Islands. The beach is called the Wandoor Beach. The good part is that they do not allow any vendors at the beach, hence they are spotlessly clean, unlike other places in India. For more beautiful skies from around the world please visit the…
My First Ever Scuba Dive at Havelock
How do you put in words the experience of my first scuba dive at Havelock? I don’t know how but I am still going to try. I spent a week in Port Blair and Havelock. I came back to reality just yesterday. I had more nights at Port Blair and less at Havelock but that…
Back from Andamans
There are two highlights of the trip. Did Scuba Diving for the first time and I can’t stop grinning. Then I got up at sunrise to take a few pics along the sea shore. Tripped with my DSLR, new 70-300 lens and cell phone. All are non-functional now. But it was an amazing trip.
