Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
If you know what I'm singin about up here, come on raise your hand
Purple rain, purple rain
I only want to see you, only want to see you in the purple rain

Sway away.......!!

Spinkled and random, yet there is some perfection in the way the stones and shells lay on this grey sand....
Nature somehow manages that.....somehow!!!

The composition alone was too beautiful to miss......

Want them to, but I guess some moments just pass never to come back again.....
Why??! So that you can cherish them forever....

Reflection....perfect mirror!

Sparkling water.....

Hmmmm.....its the same wish all the time when you see them.......

Just plain driftwood............

Waves of sand created by waves of water.....there are just to many waves on a sea shore.....!

The place to be during monsoons in Pune......Kamshet (Boat Club)....

Rock on!!!!

Hot hot hot.....!

And then there are times when you want to touch and feel colors......

Sands of time,
Leave nothing uncovered,

Everything is buried,

But even so,
Some edges will always show,

And some memories,
Always remain....

What the hell are these two smiling about?

How would this be for a view from your window?

Hahahaha....Ghode pe ulta baitho aur Zingaro beer piyo....yeh kaisi aag hai??!!!!!

Yummieeeeeeeeeee!!!!! (but what??!!)

Hmmm....what do we call her? She's French....so you know her name dont you?

God sure has steady hands to have done up an outline so perfect.....

Arc de Triumphe.....more reading at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_de_Triomphe
And by the way...Parisians...drive pretty much like we do...

Mr. Frost's fingers...

One of the many frosty mornings in Brentwood....

Just one of those typical Eifel Tower shots that tourists take...but the lighting aint all that typical.....

What if you touch her and dont feel anything under your fingers....?
So soft...that even a feather might shy away.......
My neice....Saira.....

Someone's playing Peekaboo..!!!!

Look closer....

Where the roads are made of silver.....and I rushed to get there....wanting to be washed with this light.....but when I reached, nothing but grey concrete....and as you rightly said.....the beauty did vanish......nevertheless I enjoy it still.....

Flowers are probably the easiest of the subjects....they are all beautiful, dont move about too much.....and and very photogenic too....in any light.....

He's behind bars.....but I feel caged....
I am Homo sapiens (Latin: "wise man" or "knowing man")...

If you could be anywhere you wanted to be......where would you want to be.....?

Just plain grass.....fooling around....trying to trick us into believing that they are dry and dead....
Huh....wait till the monsoons are here.....

What happens when you couple Rajgad fort in April....with a bunch of silly guys who want to climb to the top....errr....you get severe dehydration......
This was a completely spontaneous (smart way of saying unplanned!!!) trip.....we had no water....and we completed the grueling trek 10 AM to 3 PM....with odd glasses of Nimbu paani and thaak (butter milk...)made for us by angels(shriveled old ladies...but surprisingly they did look like angels.....)....using water from some lake nearby....I dont know what I drank that day.....and I dont wanna know either......ever!!!
But would I do the trek again???
Anyday!!! :)

Then you wonder about these forts.....they took the pains of making such large inaccessible ones and yet they couldnt hold these up against the Mughals.....??!!!!

I told you so.....they always catch your eye.....

This is most definetly the most thought provoking picture, it provokes so many thought that I dont know which one fits!!! And then the last one came....and it said "Calm down"

The Grand Arsonist....

Damn cool lookin dawg....I'd say....with those front legs crossed....ears perked up...tail the perfect curve(u could ask...but dont bother...)...he just looks elegant...

Finally I get this right.....for the first time...you all can see exactly what I see....without my glasses....

Beyond...what we can see....

Somehow the texture fills you up....an overwhelming sense of completeness....
Dont ask what it means....but I am sure it means something....

Ahhh...I come back to the subject of shared solitude.....
How can solitude be shared.....?? Cant be answered.....
But there are two places where its possible....that I know of.....
One a place from my school days and the second is here....if only the temperature wasnt 2 degrees....
:)

Cracked....

I just stood there, watching the waves come and go, there was always one in the making while the others raced and smashed against the rocks at my feet...
Wonder, why the rocks and the shore?? Why not go further into the sea??!!!

Check out the new Windows Vista Wallpaper....
:)

They make rules...but I am colorblind....

First I was stuck, then I flew and I floated and I then I sank....
Hahaha....nopes...no analogy to anything but this leaf, I found busy sinking.....
Wonder if the leaf though of all this at all??!!!
Freedom felt....I guess

Was wondering if I should save him.....but then I knew better....

The Road to hell.....well actually Glencoe...but the song goes well.....cold, desolate, stark contrasts.....sounds much like the landscape inside my head....sometimes
Chris Rea - The Road To Hell

Reflect.....
