Faces - Part 1

If playing one flute wasn't hard enough, this guy plays 2 with his nose. Pretty cool, Eh ?

A man dressed as Dushasana from Mahabharata, an Indian mythological story.

A Hawaldar from the Mumbai Police. We Mumbaites call them 'Pandu'/'Mammu'. These guys are probably one of the hardest working people in the city. Respect.

A few faces from the recently concluded Kalaghoda fest at Mumbai. This is Part 1 of a new series which includes my new found interest in Portrait photography. 

Travelogue - Part 3

The lighthouse at Fort Aguada,  Goa. The fort was constructed in 1612 to guard against the Dutch and the Marathas. It served as a reference point for vessels coming in from Europe at that time.

Just for fun. With the B&W infrared filter, this small scooter looks quite awesome. In Goa, these are available for rent to make transportation easy.

Future Beckham ? Nope, Just Chuck Testa :P

A few friends, on a small beach near Calangute, Goa.

This is the 2nd and last series of my last year`s trip to Goa. All of these photos have been touched up using Adobe Lightroom which I have recently started using. The originals are just as awesome, but the presets give them an all new dimension. :)

Travelogue - Part 2

Arambol beach, Goa.

Missed the Sun by around 30 minutes. Would've been a perfect picture of the Sun, Moon & Venus.

Travelogue - Part 1

The  rock formation seen in the background  forms the peak of Mt.Kalsubai, Maharashtra. This photo was taken after a long trek climbing up to an altitude of  approx 5400 feet.

 

A fishing village north of Mumbai celebrates the onset of Narali Purnima. The festival marks the advent of  the new fishing season and fishermen appease the sea-god before sailing out in their decorated boats.

 

As the sun sets over Venna Lake, Mahableshwar.

Gorai Jetty, Mumbai.

Indian Railways, frozen in time.
Apologies for the grainy-ness, this was taken from my 2 MP mobile camera. 

Pratapgadh Fort in all its glory near Mahableshwar, Maharashtra. This fort has quite a history.
