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 Pune’s 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.

A moment for you

The corkscrew shells caught our fancy while we were walking on the beach at Vagator, Goa.

While I crouched down to take a picture of this shell, I sensed a wave approaching it.

And I clicked. In time.

Morning Catch by Amit Sharma
Gokarna is a beach town situated just south of Goa, and is known for its beautiful pristine beaches, its mythological roots, as well as the regular flow of foreign tourists.

While walking on the Gokarna beach on the morning of Diwali, I came across this curious boy looking at a group of fishermen bringing in their morning catch.

Flickr Love: Peace


Peace, originally uploaded by recaptured.

This picture of a tourist meditating on the Om Beach at Gokarna has registered more than 500 views on Flickr since last evening, when I uploaded it.

The last picture that got such activity was the photograph of Aditi picking hermit crabs on the beach at Dahanu.

Why don’t you show it some love at 500px and on the NatGeo Magazine site?

Incredible !ndia

Dear Editor,
The sweat was dripping down my face and into my lap, making my clothes very wet and sticky. I sat there, walking, watching. I was trembling violently as I sat, looking at the small slot, waiting – ever waiting…

Thus begins Douglas Adams‘ first known published work.

Well, here’s my first published (with credits) work:

Incredible !ndia is a publication of The Ministry of Tourism, Government of India. Nice magazine with good articles and (ahemm) photographs :-), but it’s a pity it can’t be found on newsstands. If you still want to check out a copy you’ll have to go to a MOT office.

Here’s the original photograph on Flickr:
