Hyderabad 10K

The 10k started off on a great note and lot of rejoicing. There was a note of sadness attached too, of an unpleasant incident that was too dear for all of us to forget in all the revelry, the Mumbai Carnage. This run was thus a tribute to the Spirit of India. It now stood for reasons above & beyond those imagined by the promoters of Good Health & Good Spirit. 10k-Revised thus stood for Unity, Peace & Brotherhood and the Rising of India from Goodness to Greatness. It was a movement in support of all Mumbaikars and their togetherness, for the civilians and forces that lost their lives to some irrational terror causing maniacs. Dear Mumbai keep up that spirit, do not give in and keep giving us the strength and inspiration that ye possess. In the End... All good things sometimes get lost in the run. Such is the case with Hyderabad 10k. The picture depicts the waste produced in a time frame of 2 hours. And this is just a fraction of the waste generated. Good things sometimes tend to get shadowed by unforseen ugliness, losing their shine, thus tainting the larger picture. If only we can correct or rather be cautious in our actions, we will have a better & brighter future.

Hairy Pals

These hairy ones make a great shoot. They make hell of a noise and they are real good at it.

I caught these somewhere in Dalhousie bylanes and they were very happy to meet me.

These two remind me of a character from Tintin. Now who can tell which one. Where are all the Tintin fans.

Bugged

This is one great find. I've seen plenty of Lady Birds, but first time I saw them hanging around in groups. Thats a new behaviour. For me thats a very good pic. Any comments.

Introducing the Camera: S3IS

Turkey Duck: This is the name I was told for the birdie. But after several verifications I could not confirm. Well it certainly reminds me of the Star Trek character 'Worf'. So for all purposes it is to be called Worf till someone out there can confirm Worf real name. I met Worf in Dalhousie and he surely was one Tough Guy. Beware next time you are anywhere close, this guy can be daunting. So with this entry, I have made my Mobile Blog a combi. Till next entry, ciao.

Beauty lies beyond Sight

Now this one is a great catch. Have been inactive with my blogging and it is sad, but then the drought has to end. Do give this shot a good thought. Tell me what you see. This is one of my best mobile shots and the experts will agree. But it came naturally, not much of an effort. Ciao

What is Life!

A whisper in the Woods, a rustle amongst the Trees, trickling rain drops, a painting of the Clouds on a cold morning Sky, a cup of coffee with the rising Sun, a glimpse of the morning Rays filtering through the Leaves, a fist full of the cool earth, the clattering of the horses' hooves as they trot by, the plaintive notes of the Cuckoo with the first Rain, the crow of the Cock at the hint of Dawn, a brush of the east Winds as you laze by the water front, the sounds of the alive jungle as you tread by, the gliding swallows on a breezy day and the swaying trees dancing to the zephyr; then what is Life, if not Poetry in Motion.

Miss you Ma...

This was when I took Mummy to a park by the name NTR Garden in Hyderabad. It was a nice little walk and an animated talk (that we usually get into). Mom is like a friend who has veto powers. I enjoy seeing mummy happy and try to compensate the times we were away; whole of my growing up years. Any thing for you Mom.
