The comments are back. I must thank Jag, who noticed there was an extra ‘e’ that had got blacklisted in line 602! That was what was causing problems with leaving comments on the blog.
Though I am sorely tempted to remove the comments box, I feel it’s an integral part of the blog and am not […]

My experimentation with backlit photography during the last weekend trip to Bandipur and Ooty.
This was early morning at the guest house in Ooty. With the sun illuminating the flower from the back, it made a really pretty picture.

The ‘getting locked out’ of my own house was the bad thing that happened on Saturday. The good thing that happened was passing my driving test.
The wait for the RTO inspector stretched on for 3 hours. I nearly played hop-scotch on the pavement outside the RTO. To make matters doubly difficult, the driving school brought along […]

I could listen to his sexy voice all day long!
Staying home alone on a Friday
Flat on the floor looking back
On old love
Or lack thereof

I’m jaded
I hate it
I’m tired of being alone

So tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
Searching all my […]
