Colors of the "Phirki"

"Phirki" is a popular plaything for children, and its very simple to know why..... If such colors can captivate us, then of course.. children cant just let go of it. Captured this at Juhu beach, Mumbai

The gaze

I was on the bus, and girls here usually cover their faces while travelling to keep away the smoke and dust. I couldnt resist myself from taking this snap of my friend, her eyes were just so captivating. Hope i did justice to them :)

A Midnight Munch

Once when in Mumbai at Tunga Regency hotel, I was getting bored inside my room. The low dim light was really getting on my nerves, when suddenly i saw the grapes were giving a good glaze with that light. This photo followed suit. Its just shot with the dim light on.

Sunrise in Kumaon

around 5:45 a.m.. i come out of my room at Munsyari and i see this.... This is Kumaon range, bathed in the first rays... the five peaks seen at the left are called Panchachuli... Its believed that Yudhistira (of Mahabharata) went to heaven from the highest peak of the Panchachuli range...

The Grand Comeback

The attack on Mumbai last year left an indelible mark on all our hearts. Yet the city rose from flames and Mumbaikars again gave proof of their resilience. One such phoenix tale is of the grand Taj Hotel...... I took these snaps about 3 months after the attack.
