Peaceful If you live in a place where you’re not blessed with year long summers, like in Sri Lanka, then spring is probably your favorite time of the year. It certainly is for me. After practically hibernating inside for the entirety of winter it’s such a great feeling to be out again in mild weather. The other day I was ...
Spellbinding While in the USA, being stuck in DC an extra day because I missed my flight, I used up that time to visit an aquarium in Baltimore. These lethal beauties, more than anything else, were so mesmerizing and attractive. The gentle ease with which they glide through the water is so serene and spellbinding it’s almost impossible to believe ...

I had known about it ever ...

Peaceful During my recent trip to the USA I was in Washington DC with a bunch of my friends. The daytime was spent catching up with the old buddies and going to a few museums around, and in any case I wanted to wait till the night fall to get a snap of few landmarks around. Which led to my ...

Behold the grandeur of mighty Canyon! Ever since I was a kid I was always fascinated how amazingly and beautiful our planet is. And the more I learned about these places – both human made and natural – the more I wanted to see them. But like many other children’s fantasies, I never really thought I’d actually get to see ...
Three Loonies The end of the year vacation in the United States was pretty great. The best part of it was… catching Looney having a conversation with herself. Scratch that, with two other her-selves. If that make any sense.Filed under: Indoor, People, USA Tagged: Las Vegas, Looney, MGM Grand, Photoshop, USA
Placid A few weeks ago I was in a photowalk with my favorite meetup group, the Night Photography bunch. It was a park near Shinjuku, Japan and some of the maple trees were lit up quite brilliantly there. We walked around for more than an hour when we finally came upon this lake, where we were greeted with this gorgeous ...

Which also meant I didn’t have to stay till late, so I confirmed my availability for the meetup I was thinking of going, went home, grabbed the camera and headed straight back out. This ...
Yokohama Bird’s Eye View This photo wasn’t easy! Couple of months ago, I paid a visit to Yokohama and took loads of lovely photos, some of which were pretty darn good HDR candidates. However, since then I learned about the view from the Yokohama Landmark Tower, and it looked spectacular, and naturally I wanted to go there with the camera ...
This was aken at the Mizonokuchi Station, Japan. I didn’t intend to take the photo with the heart positioned as it is, but it was a really happy coincidence. LovebirdsFiled under: Autumn, Night, Outdoor, People Tagged: Japan, Love, Mizonokuchi, Night, Night Photography
