Bang... & Crackers

Whoever told you that 'Diwali' is just a festival, must have been drinking; not that Diwali is complete without people boozing :)

But this year I celebrated it in a different way. By shooting Fireworks. Well, this was my first go at shooting fireworks, The Photos haven't turned up very good, but much better than I expected!

'The Nebula'

'The Shooting Star'

'The Trails'

'Meteor Shower'

'The Kids'

And 'The Gang'

Still have to work on White Balance. Anyway, Happy Diwali!

A Little Ahead Of Schedule...

I am a sucker for masterpieces, be it a Gadget, a Book, a piece of music or a Photograph. However I never thought I had the 'grey cells' to appreciate oil paintings; until one fine day I came across an Oil Painting named "A Little Ahead Of Schedule". Strangely enough, I came across this painting when I was reading an article on Photography. 

I saw it; it was love at first sight. I was just awestruck by the beauty of it. I never thought that a painter could have such in-depth knowledge of lights. Let me show, what I mean.

'A Little Ahead Of Schedule' - Tom Fritz

This one took me by head. I have decided that whenever I do make my own house; I am going to have one of the paintings by Tom. For people who liked this & would be more interested to see Tom's work, visit Tom Fritz .
