Reflection

I was so cheerful today, my thought-process almost ran berserk :-) To top it, no fuss at all! :-)

The lunch treat by L was a good one. What made it even better, was the sight of pink and purple blooms throughout the way. Bengaluru does look very very pretty :-)

While coming out of office at around 6.30 pm today, saw an amazing sight! the lovely blue sky had a scattered cloud pattern which was almost scarlet because of the sunset. Add to it a crescent shaped moon peeping in between the clouds :-)

Nature..i love thee!!!

Played with my nephew for a while.. its always fun trying to teach him to speak.. the gibberish he speaks is so so so pleasing to the ears! :-)

time with family, and then collected the kid's scattered toys in the living room...

writing this post and a knock on the gate!

Save for some auto (the drive was no less a roller-coaster ride and I won't even get near the tampered meter topic!) and bike issues, the day was really pleasant.
It ended perfectly too!

Am really thankful for these LITTLE things that sum up life.. they do make a BIG difference!


and am off to count my blessings.....good night!

Surprise Surprise!

Found this in one of the cartoons (Between Friends) in today's Bangalore Times. How true!!!! :-)

"Why are the little somethings that are unexpected so much more touching than the big somethings that are?"

Hampi!!!

Trip to Hampi was on the cards for a long long time. Finally accomplished it!

3 days, 15 people and Hampi, Badami, Aihole, Patadkal.

The richness of Hampi is obvious even in its ruins! The architecture esp. of the Vijaya Vittala and Hazaararama temple is something that has to be seen to be believed. Don't think the pics will do any justice to it. Still, will be posting the snaps a lil later. Watch this space! :-D

A day to remember

A very pleasant evening etched in my memory forever....
      the gentle cool breeze, the glow of moon visible from a canopy of pink and orange bougainvillea, the sounds of the temple surrounding us... the light banter and the more serious assurances..

A friend's birthday celebrated with grandeur...
      lights and colors, chocolate cake, talking and playing the entire night without a wink of sleep..

the chill early morning weather, good morning wishes, drive back home with a bunch of sleepy-headed friends..

touchwood!

Hazaaron Khwaishen Aisi

Sudhir Mishra's direction..Powerful acting by Kay Kay Menon, Chitrangda Singh and Shiney Ahuja. What I liked the most is the song - Baawra mann

wonderful lyrics and soulful singing by Swanand Kirkire. [ full lyrics here]

baawra mann dekhne chala ek sapna..
baawra mann dekhne chala ek sapna..

Kehne ko Jashn-e-bahaara hain....

On the way to Point Reyes Viewpoint.

Calm seas ahead?

Warm Glow

Sunset captured?

Light house and the sea

ChhoTa sa ghar hain yeh magar...


And to end it, a macro ;-)




Note: I know I said the sunset was awesome, but none of the snaps did justice to what I saw.. so not adding any sunset snaps here. Just one, but probably won't classify as a proper sunset pic.
