Hey! Why are you staring at me huh?
I went for a holiday to Mumbai on the 12th, returned on the 19th. I didn't imagine this trip to be so fruitful. I used to live in Mumbai from 1999 to 2005. I then shifted to another place. So going back there was like a walk in the memory lane.
I felt very excited as soon as the plane landed. But seriously, after I hit the roads, that was all gone. Traffic unmatched, pollution such that you will guaranteed get Asthma. But nevertheless, there is a different aura about that place. I went to Water Kingdom(Asia's largest theme water park) where I had the time of my life! And of course I met my two best friends Abhinand and Vivek. It was all like a dream only on the edge of reality.
Me, Abhinand and Vivek
But then when I went to my Uncle's house, there I struck GOLDMINE. And I think you'll rightly
understand what I mean when you take a look at the following pics(self-clicked by my uncle):-
I've gotta tell momma, I'm on someone's blog!
We will always be together....
An amazing piece of macro-photography!
Ha, I'm at the top of the world!
Is this pose good enough to get me into Hollywood?
This pics weren't clicked using some fancy camera, but from a 7.1MP everyday Digi only. When I saw these, I knew where they belonged!
The clouds were very much present way from 12am midnight till about 11am in the morning
If you lived where I live, you would know that what I'm going to show you is something rare and coveted. Yes, rain is rare in New Delhi, especially heavy showers which leave fields feeling the blues with sea-loads of water. Just this happened the day before, and I got some exciting and beautiful shots to show it to you exclusively!
Notice how dark the tree-trunk has become, and the leaves look greener than usual, especially when you are looking at deciduous and not evergreen forest trees!
Look closely! Now tell me how many squirrels can you spot!
My photo-editing into action, read end of post to know how I did this!
Perhaps the best picture I've clicked in a long long time. This is part of the park where I play football every evening. Of course, the other half(behind and on the left) aren't full of trees, and they sure aren't mini-seas everyday too!
