Red Radial Captivity

Since my childhood, I have been fascinated by this flower. Whenever I've spotted this flower, I have troubled my family and friends in getting this flower for me, as it blooms on a big tree.
After seeing the details of this flower, I realize that nature offers such a wide variety of wonderful patterns and design. This is now inspiring me a lot in fashion designing :)

Strategy Lessons!

It was wonderful watching the mommy spider with her small one on her. The baby spider was moving around her body and it looked like the mother was teaching strategies to the small one :) I stood there for a few mins and it was wonderful watching this. I should've taken a video…

Prince Charming

This frog who was happily swaying caught my attention while I was portraying my friend. He looked like he was playing a flute and dancing to the nature sounds.. :)
Only later when I transferred the pic to my laptop did I realize this frog was not a normal species. I was flabbergasted to see the golden lining around his eyes. Hope this guy is not the "Frog Prince" as in the old fairy tale who transformed into a handsome Prince.. ;)

Every phase of life is beautiful..

The first leaf is young, fresh and colorful. It looks full of life.
The second leaf is old, shriveled and faded. It still looks stunning with attractive patterns on it, despite the hardship it has undergone through all these years.
If I ask you to choose one beautiful leaf of the two presented here, I am sure most of you might find it difficult to decide..
Friend!, Enjoy each and every moment and make your life as beautiful as these leaves!

Water Sculpture

The 3 dimensional water sculptures were created by my friend Sushma by throwing stones into the pond and captured by me on my cam :). It required a lot of synchronization wrt the timing and the target, which we obtained after a few trials.
After we got a few good snaps, we appreciated the team work :).

Nehal

The portraits are of my best friend Neema's 3 yr old kid, Nehal. It was a little hard for me to capture her expressions as she was in a very playful mood and was singing, dancing and running all around. Whenever I asked her to smile, she would give me a beautiful smile( like the one in the 1st pic). God bless her with all the happiness.
It was wonderful meeting my dear friend with her kid after a long time and spending a memorable evening with them.

Nature

Small elements of nature bring such immense happiness which cannot be replaced with money,
power or whatsoever.I got these roadside species on Mysore road. I have them in my room and everytime I look at them, they appear more and more gorgeous! :)
My collection includes leaves skeleton, rose petals, tiny wild flowers, and some similar wild species.. These are memory links for some special days/events in my life.. Either I pick them on a special day or the day gets special in someway when I pick them :)
Good work GOD, your creation is the best!
