Finally Some Sunlight


The sun made a brief appearance piercing the thick grey clouds ever so briefly, but it didn't help in adding any color to the frame. I have taken pics @ Marine Drive on 2 outings (the previous one was almost 3 years back) , but on both occasions I came back with disappointing images. I have been too lazy to move around to find more interesting vantage point. I tend to stick to a narrow stretch opposite the Air-India building & after canning few shots, I prefer just idling on the promenade soaking the salty breeze rather than working hard on getting that "hatke" image. Next time, I ought to do more justice to this captivating landscape. As with other aspects of my life, instead of getting better my photography skills are getting worse by each passing day!!

Aye Weebee, wat bottles are U talking about ? Those are rocks.. patthar.. triagular boulders, which I guess serve to break the tides.. or mebbe to slow down the erosion of the shore line. Okay me not done any scientific research on those rocks.. but thats I presume they are there for !!

Shooting pics on Maaaarsss.. Now that is a DREAM location, I guess there wudn't be a colorless day ever on Mars!! Would there be ?

Apy boyo, I am known to be little melodramatic.. So forgive me if i sounded bit grave about my job situation. I am doing quite okay despite my mediocre skills @ work
