Miss Pink, give me a wink- Said Mr. Sky !!

Summer has set in and this time, bangalore is going to feel the summer.. But in the midst, most trees are set with bright red, orange, yellow , violet, and pink flowers to make us feel the same old fact-"Bangalore- The Garden City of India"

Chocolat Truffle

There is nothing better than birthday cake. It's like a slice of concentrated love with buttercream frosting.



A little nonsense now and then, is cherished by the wisest men.
We have so much time and so little to do. Strike that, reverse it.
-Roald Dahl (1916 - 1990), (Willie Wonka) Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
I still recapitulate these lines and feel so elevated.

From "Forest Gump", the liner which I always remember is so truthful.
"Life is like a box of chocolates... you never know what you're gonna get."


Thought of the Day:

A compromise is the art of dividing a cake in such a way that everyone believes he has the biggest piece.

Heading for Home Making..!!

Building nest to attract females is a common syndrome seen in animal world to woo their partners and that's what is our hero trying to do... "Build a perfect home to disseminate its valuable genes!! "

So does human beings too.

Imagining when my better half will build my home for me.

Lantana Hoverer..!!

Catching pollination patterns and the business of this nature's batter system has been always a fascinating fact and stuff for me and the more I learn, the more am interested into it. The more I click these shots, the more I think scientifically.

Every time I click a shot, I feel so happy about my camera and I feel so close to nature after my mom. Thanks Mom for making me realize I too can be your pride a day.

Current Mood: Gratitude

White is Bright.

This shot says why white is bright. Thats so soothing a color and infact one of my favorites. When forests are reducing, the rain forest species are heading to urban gardens and Anthurrium is now-a-days one of the well known garden plants of many city homes and so a part of the urban nature.


Current Mood: Peaceful

There comes the KING

A memorable trip to River Kabini, after Kushal Nagar. And landing up in elephant breeding camp was all so enthralling for me. seeing the tusker so close to me was letting me nor-adrenaline rush out as a jet from the glands and the mesmerising beauty of the whole troop landing up at one place top have the supper from far inside the forest was all a live-in memory.

Thanks to Giri for planning out such a lovely trip.

Current Mood: Lost in OLD memoirs

Happy Id-E-Milan

Tis the witching hour of night,
Or bed is the moon and bright,
And the stars they glisten, glisten,
Seeming with bright eyes to listen
For what listen they?

- John Keats (1795 - 1821)

Wishing all a Happy and peaceful earth to live in.
Happy Id-E-Milan and the eve of Holi.

Spot Billed Pelican...

Happy Birding Times are back.. I took this shot because though this bird isn't that dosile, but it was quiet and calm and gave me some pretty decent poses to capture her from all angles... Thanks to Mr. Lingarajam Gowda of Kokkare Bellur village (our consulting guide). It was a true pleasure to know that these birds are protected by the villagers in association with MAN(Mysore Amateur Naturalists).

Thought of the Day:The truth is rarely pure and never simple.

Current Mood: Proud to be a Woman.

The F*** Factor...

This shot was taken in Kokkare Bellur, Karnataka, India.

I waited a lot to catch the storks busy in the act of love-making, which was of small fraction time... Attempting for some 15 times, i guess I caught the best.. I would love to thank my dear husband for helping me in taking the shot as he was a keen observer to catch the raw eye candid shot and myself chasing him with my camera to catch these storks into the ACT. Shot @ Kokkare Bellur, Karnataka(a village where the pelicans and storks visit every year around this time for breeding and such a Eco-friendly ambiance.
A gratitude to the villagers who are busy in protecting these birds)

The Sky is My Limit..!!

I am ready for the TAKE OFF as the blue vast clear sky is calling me to embrace me in its arms..!!

My 100th Post... I would love to love myself more and more and enjoy my success day by day.. I deserve the best, as Sky is my limit.. I will prove them all that I am the worthless. None can be compared to me. I dedicate this shot of mine to myself as I have realized I have left my home and have started flying.

And now I have to fly to reach there and no stopping as "The sky and beyond are my limits.."
As I have felt that, slowly i realized
"If you don't run your own life, somebody else will."
Also I have learn in past few years(after leaving home) that-
"The secret of happiness is to make others believe they are the cause of it."


Thought of the Day: "Every human is an artist. The dream of your life is to make beautiful art."
