  • Of coincidences…

    Was browsing through my feed on Facebook today, and this happened! 

    I don’t personally believe in coincidences but this is interesting 🙂  

    One illustration is with Ram, and the other one a devotee in front of Shiv!

  • Positive India Post # 2 – Bio-toilets in Trains

    Starting this series to collect positive news and motivating articles about India and Indians… Thanks to The Better India website for the inspiration! I would make an attempt to collect more positivity about India and Indians, and put it here!

    Here is an article on 800 coaches from Pune being fitted with Bio-Toilets! I have been in love in Indian Railways for as long as I remember, and I always feel great about something new coming up related to them!

  • Positive India Post # 1 – Aha moment of the day!

    I met someone yesterday for an End of Lease Cleaning job for my current unit! He has been in Australia for over 45 years, however has his roots in India. We got talking, and he told me about his tenure in Australian Navy (he served in Australian Navy for over 20 years), the war games Navy used to play, and that Indian Navy is a force that you do not want to go against!

    Loved that bit 🙂

  • Flower Vendor in Old Delhi

    There used to be a lose flower market every morning at Fatehpuri, Chandni Chawk. This market has now been shifted to Gazipur in East Delhi, but the memories remain of my many trips to this place hoping that I would get good photographs… I did! This is one of them!

  • Chole Bhature in Chandni Chawk

    For any passionate photographer in NCR, Chandni Chawk and its lanes are where you start your Street Photography Pilgrimage from… Every weekend you can see a lot of photographers trying to capture everything that you possible can from the place!

    This is from one of my weekly darshan’s of the place… The man in the photograph owns an old Chole Bhature shop, right next to Giani’s near Fatehpuri… We got talking and discussed how Chandni Chawk and old delhi had changed in the last few years!

  • We the people…

    Met them on a shoot of the Daurala Sugar Mills….

  • Railway Crossing…

    A few pictures from a Railway Crossing in Daurala, Meerut!

    February 21, 2008 - Daurala Railway Crossing S-1286 This is what would practically define every railway crossing in India… The bigger vehicles would “have” to stop, and the cyclists, don’t care! While one of them is already making his way through, the other is getting off his cycle to cross!

    February 21, 2008 - Daurala Railway Crossing S-1295 A tractor trolly loaded with sugarcane for the sugar-mills… a common sight during the mill season!

    February 21, 2008 - Daurala Railway Crossing S-1297 Yezdi! I am simply glad to have a picture of this bike in my collection! It has served a lot of folks in India well for decades, and there still are die-hard fans of the bike!

    February 21, 2008 - Daurala Railway Crossing S-1308 This piece of cloth is called a Loi or a Khes (very popular in UP and Haryana for light winters! Its interesting how this would also serve as a wind-cheater for some!)

  • Happy Family!

    One of Knot Just Pictures’ latest post has been gaining a lot of attention, and all for good 🙂
