I remember clicking photos of squirrels with the (primitive) click camera as a kid. I used to be so happy with myself thinking I had successfully managed to click a photo without scaring them away. Except I was brought down to earth when the roll was developed and no one (including me) could find them in the photograph. Some photos seemed like I was clicking photos of the ground and some, like there were some stones on the ground. The stones were actually the squirrels!

There were no bounds to my happiness when I clicked this photo. 

This has been the wall paper for a long time. :)

I clicked this photograph in Ahmedabad during the heritage walk in the old city. It seems like the dog is posing for a photograph! During the walk I noticed that there was at least one dog sitting outside houses that were locked, as if they were guarding them till the residents returned.

This man's daughter's wedding was decided and he had come to the mandai to do the wedding shopping. 

His face speaks about his concern and worries.

Opposite the Mandai is a row of shops that sell all things required for a puja or havan. 

The shops are very small and the owners make the most of the space available by displaying all the products outside. 

This is how Bright and pretty the shops look at night. 

I find the way they make the heaps of turmeric powder (halad)and vermilion powder (kunku) very amusing.

Mamta and me were at Mandai at 6.30 in the morning to see people open their shops only to wait till 7.30! 

So till then we roamed around clicking photographs of random objects and I came back with this. 

I have realized that I can never reason why a certain photograph appeals to me except say that "I just like it!"

So here's another I just like it photograph. :-)

Lost in thought. Man sitting next to his gala. 

This was a difficult ime for the gala owners as they were losing their customers to the malls and markets in the city.
