BLUE & WHITE

Blue & White at Lokmanya Tilak Terminus, Bombay

It was a lazy winter morning at Miao in Arunachal Pradesh. My dad, a police officer in those days commanded me :P to bring the gourd which was hanging in our backyard garden. Instead I took my camera and took this photo, Curving Fall. My mom got pissed, when she saw me taking photograph and scolded me, 'you fool! Gourd will kill your hunger but photography will kill you hungry. And when you are hungry, eat your photograph and do not ask me for food, you stupid fellow!'

FALLING BUILDING

I was wandering around my college and it was a hot summer afternoon in Madras. I was clicking action freeze photographs which was my photography assignment to be submitted the next day. I went round and round and round and round my college 365 acres campus and was pretty exhausted at one point of time. I wanted to cool myself and wash my face. I came to the connecting corridor between the science block and the college auditorium remembering the water tap which was there. I kept my camera and move towards the tap but after I saw the tap, I picked up my camera again and rigged it in my stand. I took some photos and one of the photo is Falling Building.

ACID LAMP

One of my friend in Bombay told me that they are going to Goa for the new year celebrations. I could not stop myself and I plunged into the plan without any considerations. But when the new year eve came, me and my friends found ourselves in Bangalore instead of Goa. Yes, I know it was disappointing. But my friends were so, so, so happy because they were going to do acid in Bangalore but I was not, as Goa was still in my mind. They promised me that we will go to Nandi Hills but I thought, what hills will amuse me when I was born and brought up in mountains. Days went by and Nandi Hills was already out of the map and we met few more friends in Bangalore. My friends were high on acid everyday till the new year eve got over. I took some photos including Acid Lamp.
