Stand by me

Posted on September 26, 2004

If I was a poet, I would have written a haiku to go with this tree that really caught my fancy during my Nandi Hills trip. I found some lyrics instead:

    “When the night has come
    And the land is dark
    And the moon is the only light we see
    No, I won’t be afraid
    Oh, I won’t be afraid
    Just as long as you stand
    Stand by me…”

A photo essay

Posted on November 16, 2005November 17, 2005

I was looking through my trip photographs and decided to pick one or two from every place I visited and do a quick photo essay : a memory recap through all the places and sights I saw and the people I met. Just little memories that keep popping up… Here they are, countrywise, but in no particular order.

Goa in the rains!

Posted on August 14, 2007August 14, 2007

Most people would probably stay away from Goa during the monsoons. But somehow, I like this season. Maybe, because one of my fondest memories was going with a few friends to Goa in August of 1998. We found a magical beach way back then – no people, no crowds –…

    Hi Anita:

    This picture itself is a poem.

    I came across this site by chance

    I also looked at the photos found in ‘The The world through my viewfinder’ …

    You have an amazing talent and you will make a great phoographer (if not already..) and may hold exhibitions worldwide..

    Keep up the great work

    Thank You

    Thanks Numb and Mehak 🙂

    Ganesh: Thanks a lot for the compliment! And I can assure you that I have a long long way to go before that 🙂 Actually, I’m really keen to continue my painting too, and right now both the hobbies are fighting for attention and I know I can’t pursue both of them with the same level of intensity!

    Thanks Shobha!

    That’s a nice snap… I can’t help myself remembering these words…

    A poem worth a life

    Of a few words, unsaid

    A few lines, undrawn

    A single dot, unmarked.

    Written by a tree

    At the crack of dawn

    I shall sing it my remaining life.

    It reads even better in Marathi, the language it was originally written in…

    madame francois,

    it eej “if i were” not “if i was”. even mamzelle dupont would be able to tell you that it is so.

    Sahil: Lovely words! I am sure it would sound even better in Marathi.

    EssBee: Must say I didn’t understand your comment!

    You are welcome…As it happens many times a few are gifted with spontaneous creativity of expression in a many different ways (Photography , Painting , Writing ).. How about posting one/ few of your painting(s) for our viewing pleasure, when you find some free time.

    Thanks Chirayu, the picture is mine. But not the poem :)Unfortunately, poems are something I have not been particularly good at. I have made several sad attempts in the past but realised its not my cuppa tea!

    Anita: Got a chance to browse thru the art gallery …the soothing colors of autumn, basket of flowers, sunset or sunrise and fresh veggie look terrific. Although I am not very knowledgeable with technical aspects of painting and colors, still I am happy that I could appreciate nice painting(s)…

    I also read some of your articles written in rediff and like your sense of humor and writing style. (Simple and direct)…Guess what… I have decided to bookmark your page and visit them again.

    Anyone can become angry. That is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose and in the right way – that is not easy.
