Of sunsets

November 8th, 2004  |  Published in Art & Culture  |  26 Comments

If there’s some­thing that I am really fas­ci­nated by, it’s the vast expanse of the sky. Some­times I’m dri­ving down the long road to office, so fas­ci­nated by the chang­ing colours and pretty pat­terns that I almost for­get that I should have my eyes on the road!

And one thing I love about Ban­ga­lore is the clear blue expanse of skies, when­ever the sun is out. Believe me, after six years in Mum­bai, I for­got that there could actu­ally be blue skies! And that one could actu­ally see the sun set! Lit­tle for­got­ten pleasures :)

I am yet to see the per­fect sun­set how­ever! Or to cap­ture it on film. But have you had such a moment when you looked at the hori­zon and felt: this is just the most per­fect scene you have ever witnessed?

    I remem­ber see­ing a per­fect sun­set once in my home­town in Ker­ala.… I got so fas­ci­nated that I got shut off from this world…

    You really can get nice sun­set pics in any part of kerala…

    Note: I am not pro­mot­ing Ker­ala here :-)

    Check out

    http://www.eng.usf.edu/~gopalakr/pics/sail_sunset8.jpg

    And maybe if you have time sail_sunset1,2,3…

    These are sun­set pics that I took when I went sail­ing in the tampa bay , florida. THe moment and the sun­set was so per­fect that one of the group (the sail­ing club in the univ.) actu­ally had tears in her eyes. The group of us were totally silent for about 20 mins. No one talked no one sneezed. nothing.

    what are your plans for this looong weekend?

    Ker­ala is awe­some, Rad­hakr­ish­nan. This was one I got when I went this Feb­ru­ary. It was an amaz­ing sight. The Chi­nese fish­ing nets just add to the whole setting!

    Thanks Khushee!

    Arun: No actu­ally. I haven’t painted much since I came here. But I have a long list of paint­ing to be done, so I might have to get down to my brushes now :)

    Mahesh: I’ll be happy to! Have a few to com­plete for a friend in Mum­bai, for Deki. Will put you in my list too!

    Noidadude: Loved the 8th pic­ture. Gore­geous colours.

    Aqua: It’s com­ing up :) Not to worry!

    Oh.. and thaks to the canine sub­jects in this post, I almost for­get that this one counts as a bona fide sun­set too :)

    Hey no fair — you can catch some gor­geous sun­sets if you go down to the beach in B’bay…I’ve wit­nessed sev frm the Versova beach. Granted other (smaller) cities offer you big­ger can­vases of the skies..infact I’m see­ing alot more of the sky since I moved to pune..but no sun­sets by the sea..:-(

    So you paint as well as click? Cool!

    If u love the skies, you have to add the state of Mon­tana in the US to your travel list. The land here is absolutely flat, no high rise build­ings and all you can see above is the vast sky.

    Deepak: Nice sun­set. Was that in Ban­ga­lore? I also liked the one with the two canines. Where did you take that one?

    Gee­tan­jali: I actu­ally did live near Versova for a while, but never caught a sun­set!! But that might also be because I wasn’t look­ing hard enough!!

    Q: Added to my ever-growing list! Right now, I’m aim­ing for UK, France and Spain next year. Hope­fully, the US the year after that. I also want to visit a few places in South Amer­ica. Like the Andes :) And ride down the Ama­zon. So many plans.. Sigh!

    The first one was at Ban­ga­lore — near Embassy Golf Links, Off Inter­me­di­ate Ring Road.. (I don’t know why (or how) I’ve put air­port road on my blog :p)

    The one with the canines was at Hyderabad’s Durgam Cheruvu (known for some rea­sons as the “Secret Lake”).

    And Oh — Happy Deepawali!!!

    ah.. all sun­sets seem per­fect till the next one.. I have some of them here -> http://www.fotolog.net/twilightfairy/?photo_id=1548936

    Also, LOL at the mu$ical fire­works thing :).. the tune (dont know why the word “mu$ic” is being shown as objec­tion­able con­tent!!) is a per­ma­nent thing at my blog .. but the fire­works are only tem­po­rary.. BTW i think that such things already do exist..

    That’s a lovely paint­ing. I love sun­sets too. Infact cap­tured var­i­ties of them in dig­i­tal form. I am cur­rently started to work on a col­lec­tion of paint­ings with sun­sets as theme.
