covered in mist, the scenery was beautiful.

moon at the closest 12/13/08 00:00 EST

who said moon is beautiful?? i would say its just the on lookers imagination

colorful driveway

lone survivor

just for sake...

my first hand at macro...

the shade, the sun and the moon !!!

the future....

beauty of death...

Nothing becomes so beautiful before death than the fall colors...just few days to go for these leave to die and fall off...

fall at its best !!!

few of the shots i took from our fall trip to Grandfather Mountain, Chimney Rock and Biltmore House

a winter tale...

nature is ripped off all its protection and we go for blanket and jackets for extra protection...what a contrast

death of a romance...

who after Voldemort ...

(click on the image to see the villain in full resolution)

who painted me blue....

bridging the gap

another balancing act

an upgraded version of the balancing act

Deep woods

a picture perfect for the definition of "Deep Woods"

just a passing moment....

like this pic for the color of the grass and the presence of horses in the meadows

beautiful evening sky...

different shades of sunset...a natural color combination ,hard to recreate by humans

rain !!!

Rain always blurs the view through the window, here it is....overshadowing the beauty of nature with its own beauty...

only wind to talk to....

with only the wind to talk to...standing all alone

lonely...

a day will finally come when only the frame will remain and the protagonist will leave the scene..the way he entered..

flying saucer

not a flying saucer...just the hanging lamp shade..and to your surprise, this was shot in broad day light

another shot of the lamp

hanging lamp..but looks better the other way round

use and throw

i still dono y i shot this...but i feel it does convey something...we are cared and valued only until we are of some use

a love story

thats my best friend deepu accepting the love of his life, as his wife, as per Hindu tradition.
I must admit that this beautiful occasion was captured in my camera by Sam, another good friend of mine, and this happens to be the best picture till date, to be shot from my cam and will remain one of my favorite pic

balancing act ???

the act of balancing in one leg comes so easily for this bird, but for more powerful humans, it can be a difficult task... a task in which we may accept defeat to this mini creature...never ever underestimate anyone

in the hope of a better tomorrow

thats Sandy on a hill top in thodupuzha

never say die

even after getting perished, its still showing that it did exist there once upon a time...a never say die attittude

darkness prevails

a shot of the sunset through the woods...taken from the balcony of my apartment

New Years eve

was a beautiful night...a colorful beginning for the occasion.

half moon

the closest i could get to the moon on New Year's eve.. lacking a lens, which could have captured it better.
