City Pockets

Bangalore

I recently attended a photography lighting workshop. A lovely grand old man spoke about lights and how to utilize it favorably at all hours. How to work the light angels et al. It was a Saturday well spent. The assignment at the end of the class  before I begin the next set of advance classes was to put all the studio education to practical purpose. Photographing open spaces and people happens to be my favorite thing. Hence I choose the…

Bangalore has tons of weekend getaway options inside a 300 km radius. Chikmagalore , the land of home-stays and coffee estates happens to be one such dreamy destination. This was on my travel checklist for a while now.

Pushkar : Postcards from last winter

Pushkar| Rajasthan

Pushkar ,located in Ajmer district of Rajasthan is a visual delight. One of the oldest existing cities in India. It’s pure exoticism in a religious way.Surprisingly calm, pristine beauty as expected. The main attraction is the Brahma temple(few exist around the world) and the Pushkar pond. As far as mythology goes it’s supposed to have formed from the tears Lord Shiva shed after the death of his wife Satti.
It’s a smorgasbord of people. Pundits, coerce unsuspecting tourists into feeding…
