Being Shutterbugged

Okay,now I am not that famous a Shutterbug, but I do happen to use the shutter to my best. Here are some pics that I clicked, some with my cellphone camera and some with my newly bought Semi-SLR digicam. I didn't want to upload them directly as I wanted to do some experiments with flash objects. So..here it is.. (Use the Pause button below the Pics as you read)




1. Dire Straits From The Rock Encyclopedia
This is a pic that i clicked from a Greatest Rock Stars encyclopedia with one of my good pals.

2. My Guitar
This is my guitar. A real "Pluto" imported brand. Yes I can play one :)

3. B&W
No. This is not my mom and dad, but apparently my friends mom and dad. This Pic was shot from an old B&W snap upon his request to improve the quality and take a larger portrait of it.

4. Zipp-errr!!
A Zippo! which i bought during my college days. A real good one ofcourse and besides it is the waist-let of my roommate giving a rugged look!!

5. Up above
Decoration .. a pic clicked by me when back home during the Puja holidays.

6. Marbles
Apparently these small marble looking things are not MARBLES. These are some synthetic material which swells in the presence of H2O and appears as marbles. Available in market for decorative purposes and used in place of soil for in-house plantation as the water content is high.

7. The lamp
The neon battery lamp with a vendor selling fruit salad at Elliot beach Chennai.

8. Rain of fire
Corns being burnt. Amazing taste with lemon squeezed and salt on it. Elliot beach again.

9. Minty
An Indian five rupees coin, with some 50 paise cons behind. This pic has the outblur effect with my cam and hence in this collection.

10. Green
The close up of a.... Green leaf...apparently the was way too small and I struggled to shot it from inside my room from the window..phew!!

11. Brick in the wall
"We dont need no ejjucation!!" , we do!!, Somewaht! Another close up. A hole in the wall.

12. Like Crab
This is apparently not a crab , but some successor or predecessor of it I found at the Beach. Mutant I presume! :P

13. Bridgestone
The day i spent with Schumacher... Naaahh! I am too busy for that..lol! The tyre of the F1 McLaren Mercedes displayed at our office premises. This pic was taken from my cellphone camera, and hence the quality.

14. Sandal
Yes, of course, what else, a Sandal??...I have no idea why I clicked it...but it seemed elegant to me *in some ways*.

15. Sparks
Flying sparks as I zoomed in and clicked.

16. Decora
Decoration done at the Durga Pujas, back home!

This pic was taken by me on our trip to Nandi Hills. The people in the pic are my dear friends.

28. Sammy Jenkis
This was a concept pic taken by me for my friend Sam's profile. I emphasized on his shadow , more than him!

The Nandi hills at early morning...An awesome view of the Hills..Just couldn't resist clicking.

30. Way to Hills
Pleasant morning . Way to Nandi Hills.

31. King of Good times
This pic was taken while we were returning from Nandi Hills. The car was at a speed of over 100kmph and exactly opposite direction to that of the craft. The B'lore aerodrome runway is apparently parallel to the highway. Clicked at the knick of time from inside the running car. A kingfisher Craft Landing at B'lore airport.


P.S. You can share this album from Flickr...well, if you wish to!
P.P.S. Please do not sell my photographs. And if you do.... I'll accept cash :P

The Boar and the chopstick


Quite some times back i had a gut feeling that i should possess a pair of chopsticks. Why chopsticks? Why not BMW or iPhone?.. well the selection was biased towards my innate love towards food & the curiosity of "How can one have a plate of rice with two sticks?", and here i am a Proud owner of a pair of Chopsticks imported from Japan right away...




An achievement in Product categorization, assortment, and identification is what a Bar code might have achieved, but I find it painstakingly difficult to understand the significance of the picture. Yes it is a bar-code...just a bar-code ... and yes its obvious that its the identifier of my pair of chopsticks above.



I discovered lately that my birth year is "Boar" in decent words or "Pig" in indecent words. Well the picture above has no relationship, far or near, to my birth year being "Boar" or "Pig". But atleast i am sure of the fact that a BOARian is allowed to take absurd pictures to feed the Photographic persona withing himself. Its just a HANGING LAMP, no strings attached!!
