My all-time favourite pics.....

Camera: Sony Ericsson K750i (thats my phone :p)

Most of these pics are unusual by the normal standards, but well, the results are here for all to see... :) These have been taken by me using my phone (since I carry it along all the time, but dont use it for much else) over the last one and a half years..

The pics are not in any particular order, but there is some description of each picture.. So, do try to read it and lemme know what you think..

The following pic is the marks of water on the golden sands of Alibaug.. Alibaug is a beach just off Mumbai and the only way to reach there is via a motor-boat from the Gateway of India.

This is the Mehndi on my left hand which was put on Teejri.. Teejri is a fast observed by Sindhi girls and women on the 3rd day after Shravan Poornima..Mehndi is mandatorily applied for this fast..This picture was taken at night with just the car door-light :)




Indians are famous for their spicy food.. ;) and here is where the magic lies. This is a typical Masale-ka-dabba in my house.


The next pic was taken during the drive from Agra to Fatehpur Sikri in an Innova moving at 80kms per hour..



This pic is an interesting play of colour by nature.. taken at the Yercaud lake just as the sun was setting .. It feels like the fountain is trying to blow out the fire in the sky....


Another interesting play of colours, but this time in the skies above Bangalore... this picture has been taken at dusk just after a drizzle


Now to start with my muse. I like photographing flowers and here are some flower pics (I dont know what flower varieties they are, so any information is welcome)

The first flower pic was taken at Yercaud - a bunch of vibrant wild-flowers


The second one was at a friend's mini-garden in the Garden City. :)


The third one was at a friend's mini-garden in the City of Dreams. :) Btw. As per my information, in Marathi this flower is called Brahma-Kamal, it blooms just for one night around 12:00 midnight and withers away by 4 a.m.



And this is one of the flowers used for the decorations when our firm announced its Merger..

Awesome! Can't believe they're taken with the petty camera on a mobile phone! Nice work.
