Lavasa: May 2013

It was a dark & stormy night. Yes it was.

Three bikes with three photographers entered Lavasa. By the time they reached they were drenched, and it was dark & foggy.

All their plans of shooting the shiny new Enfield with the colourful city of Lavasa in the backdrop were also drenched, and had to be thrown in the lake.

We had to do the best with what we had. And I think we did decently well.

And you get the wallpaper one day early because tomorrow is an international holiday :)

Word of Grace: Photoessay

DSC_7081_up
Word of Grace is a growing congregation of Christians in Pune – what we generally call a Church. They don’t meet in a Church building. Their Sunday get-togethers are held in a hall in the Camp area.

Anish took me there. He has been a part of Word of Grace, and wanted me to help him in making a video for the Church.

That Sunday I met all these really wonderful and warm people, who come together to share their happiness & sorrows with each other, sing & laugh with each other, and welcome anyone with open arms and a heartfelt smile.


Hovering: April 2013 Wallpaper

Bought this R/C helicopter for my nephew on his birthday.

At some level, it was for the kid in me who loves toys too :) And for everyone in the house who was enamoured by it.

Tung and Nostalgia

Tung and Nostalgia
Almost a five year old photograph. One of my very first treks after I moved to Pune. My first opportunity to bond with a great friend, colleague and fellow rider, Nitin.

My first time at the pool of beauty named Paavna.

March 2013: Calcutta

Calcutta
Quintessential Calcutta. Everything Calcutta.

Finally I did the obviously Calcutta photowalk – in the flower market in Mullickghat.

As almost a tourist in a city I used to call my own. I still love Calcutta.
