Ruined!

Although this little guy doesnt know it, he is very lucky to have born in Kodachadri, quite far away from human hustle and bustle. Except for the trekkers visiting the place now and then, the place is quite harmonius, I must say. But Wait, not so fast! Lets not jump to conclusions here. Forget about the foreground for a moment and take a look at the background. Now I realize that I've made a wrong statement, "the place was quite harmonius".

I dont understand why travellers sometimes become irresponsible. They do travel to see what the natural world offers them, but why do they give littering in return? There are many such places along the side of the trek path to Kodachadri.

One humble request, please dont litter. :(

On the way to Kodachadri...

It was 1:30 in the afternoon and we still hadnt started our ascent. We were walking along the dusty road when Rakesh spotted a stream nearby. We decided to freshen up and refill our supply of water. It was a beautiful place and spend quite some time there. Rakesh found these sets of stone, arranged them and asked me to shoot it.. And I did.

The second one is a photoshop tweak to the original. Its called radial blur in zoom mode. I liked the vortex effect that it produced.

What an expression Sirji!

Thats Vijay trying to smile while munching on a biscuit. I like to capture candid portraits and I tried the same with him. Unfortunately, he noticed me. But fortunately, I captured his squirrel-ish avatar.
This was shot at the foot of Kodachadri Hills, Shimoga, Karnataka, India. Its a must-see place, so go ahead append it to your things-to-see list!

Kodachadriya Naayi Mari!

It was around 5 pm when we reached the top. (Or atleast we thought we had reached the top, but Alas! There was 3 more kilometers to go). This cute little puppy greeted our exhausted minds with its usual playful activities. The Sun was at a low angle in the sky and muddy golden hairs of the puppy glistened in the sunlight.

A great start to a brand new decade

Hmmm.. Its been too long since I last updated my blog, almost 10 months!

This season, me and a bunch of my friends planned a trip to the Western Ghats, Karnataka. I must say I loved clicking most of the pics!
This here is the summit of Kodachadri, Shimoga District, Karnataka, India. We were all too excited (and too tired) by the time we reached the top. We had thought we would miss the sunset for sure. In fact, we almost missed the sunset due to this series of pictures.

Roshan HITLERized

Haha... This is gonna be a good one.
Here goes the story: Varun uploaded some pictures of Roshan sitting in the class. But due to his 'vibrant' photography, his picture was blurred. And the best part is, he had that 'Hitler look' in his eyes. And just guess what had crossed my mind when I saw that image. Aha, right! Merge Hitler and Roshan into one entity!!

And the result is right before your eyes!!

What is this blog is all about??

Well, thats the first question. WHAT is this blog all about??
Basically, it deals with my interests, experiences and the most important of all, my digital experiments!!

A bell goes ting in your mind. What are 'digital experiments' you ask? Here's an illustration:



What you basically see here is the result of a twisted mind, some free ime and an amazingly simple software called photoshop. This is an image of my digital hybrid with garfield!
