Soaked in Winter Twilight


“There is nothing wrong in being in love, in love with the camera”

It was a lovely and a romantic evening, reminded me of the chick flick “A Walk to Remember”, as I missed my companion for the walk, I realized my love for the camera.

PS : Can anyone spot a couple in the distant background

The Guiding Light


"I can see colours in a Black & White photograph, any colour I like"


I'll be out with a whole bunch of Landscape photographs in B&W soon. Monochrome seems to give a better and new perspective to landscapes.

O’ Brien’s Watchtower


O'Brien's Tower
marks the highest point of the Cliffs of Moher, located a short distance from the village Doolin, famous for its traditional Irish music.

The tower was built on the Cliffs of Moher in 1835 by local landlord Sir Cornellius O’Brien as an observation tower for the hundreds of Victorian tourists that frequented the cliffs during the time. O'Brien also built a wall of Moher flagstones along the Cliffs and it is said in the locality that he built everything around here except the Cliffs.

Cliffs of Moher


“What can be viewed from the eye can't be seen by the camera,
but what can be seen in a photograph can’t be seen just from the eye”


The Cliffs of Moher (Irish: Aillte an Mhothair, lit. cliffs of the ruin, also known as the Cliffs of Mohair) are located in the south-western edge of the Burren area near Doolin.

The cliffs rise 120 meters (394 ft) above the Atlantic Ocean at Hag's Head (Irish: Ceann na Cailleach), and reach their maximum height of 214 meters (702 ft) just north of O'Brien's Tower, eight kilometres away.

The cliffs consist mainly of beds of Namurian shale and sandstone,with the oldest rocks being found at the bottom of the cliffs. It is possible to see 300 million year old river channels cutting through the base of the cliffs.

There are many animals living on the cliffs. Most of these are birds, with an estimated 30,000 birds from more than 20 species. These include Atlantic Puffins, which live in large colonies at isolated parts of the cliffs and on the small Goat Island. Also present are hawks, gulls, guillemots, shags, ravens and choughs

In Tribute to dear friend Tushar - RIP


“If there is a beginning there has to be an end, everything that is born must die and everything that dies must be reborn”


I woke up today to the news that my friend Tushar will no longer be with us to spread his love amongst us. He has been relinquished from his earthly duties and called upon by god for a heavenly abode. May his soul rejoice the union with the omnipresent and god give strength to his family.
