Fling

Until fairly recently I didn't realise that shooting people would be so much fun. I now wish I had started sooner but it's better late than never. So much to learn but it's just so much fun. It's kinda addicting to be honest.

This is one of my closest friends and she was kind enough to let me take a few pictures. Sure it's not perfect but it was just for fun.

Under The Arch

I've been really inactive this past week and the reason is I've been busy with exams.
Anyway my holidays started today so I'm really looking forward to taking some more pictures if the weather permits.

Places like this always make for good photographs and they look really cool especially in black and white.

Clear View

So I was cycling down this path and I came across these tiny little man made ponds. These ponds are bone dry during the winters but fill up during the monsoons. Fortunately we had heavy rains the previous day and the ponds were half-full.

I noticed this little branch that jutted above the surface of the water. I just loved the reflection too because it was so clear. I just couldn't help myself and I stopped right in the middle of the road to take this picture.

I think I've mentioned this before that people in this area act really weird specially when someone has a camera. So needless to say when I lifted the camera to my eye a lot of people stared staring at me as if I was doing some recon work or something or taking pictures that would later be used to hatch a sinister plot against them.

I got of there as fast as I could.

You may have noticed that most of my work is in colour. I don't usually convert pictures to black and white but there is something about reflections that really pop in black and white pictures.

That's it for today. Have a good one and thanks for taking the time to read my blog. I really appreciate that :)

Reflection Is The Better Part Of A Champion

Remember a couple of days ago I told you I had gone on a cycle ride that turned kinda sour? If you read that post you'll remember that I also said that I got a really awesome pic. Well today I'm going to share this "really awesome" pic with you :)

It rained last Friday and this rain is what we here call the "end-of-winter" rain. It kinda signifies the beginning of summer. So there are these little ponds that fill up with rain water and I took this picture at one of these.

I don't usually convert my pictures to black and white but I decided to do it with this one because I think it makes the reflection much more prominent.

I got the title for this post from the movie "Remember The Titans". It is from a sticker on a mirror in one scene. If you haven't seen that movie I recommend you watch it.

Here is another picture of a kingfisher I took at an adjacent pond. It flew off soon after so I couldn't get a good close up of it.

That's it for today folks. I'm now going to have a massive bite of delicious home made pizza while I watch the latest episode of Arrow.

Have a great day folks! :)
