Goa – in black and white Posted on October 28, 2004 After finishing a few colour rolls, I decided to experiment with a black and white one while in Palolem, Goa. Here are some of the snapshots. This one is my favourite! I wanted to bundle all of them into my rucksack and bring them home to Kit Kit! The colour photographs will take a while longer, as the scans I got from GK Vale are absolutely crappy. So I will have to get all three rolls from the Dandeli-Goa trip rescanned. This is the second time this has happened. I think because of the load, their quality is becoming worse these days. But that’s really no excuse for grainy, low quality scans. Hopefully, I shall manage to get them all done by tomorrow.

Cycling TFN and the rest of the trip Posted on December 28, 2009March 25, 2011 Day 3: Hassan to Madikeri A day filled with scenic routes but a lot of climbs and pretty tiring too in the end.

The journey of a 1000 steps Posted on March 30, 2004 In my six years and a half years in Mumbai, I have never been to Kihim beach. So when the opportunity cropped up, I decided to grab it.

hey….I agree that GK Vale sucks these days…happened to me too 🙁 do ya know of any other place where I can take good scans (in bangalore ofcourse :)) Reply
Geetanjali, Merci beaucoup! Diplome… wow! I am not sure I will be able to survive that long 🙂 LL: Black and white do have a special charm… Vegas: Your wish has been granted 🙂 Wildflower: Hmmm.. obsession with Kit Kit is a ‘forever thing!’ Kalyan: Thanks. You did have a chance 🙂 Pratap: Try Prabhu’s on Brigade Road. They do decent scans and prints. The last few prints I took from them from slides was pretty good. Reply
Hi Anita, I was googling “GK Vale” and this page was the fourth one returned. It is amazing and interesting how search engines connect things… Thanks for the info on scans… GK Vale does a lousy job of scanning in spite of clear, repeated instructions… Good for me and bad for “GK Vale” that googling it returns this page!!!
