San Francisco

Golden Gate bridge

Marine life has always fascinated me. Here I see what is called as a joyous inseparable unity of a sea anemone lashing against its serene environment.


Lombard Street

Mount Rainier, Washington

Nature is so mystically miraculous because it is always changing. No matter how many times you look at it, it is always different. Nature can set a sky aflame at sunset or magically transform a familiar landscape into a snow-white wonderland. It can paint a rainbow in the sky, paint beautiful autumn colors on trees, or paint a clump of daffodils in the grass with glow of soft sunlight.... here we witness a peaceful setting with the mountains covered with snow, as there is no wind to disturb anything in this quiet winter paradise. This relaxing and serene atmosphere may be talking about completely different things but it relates to the beauty of nature, in all its wonder. It is a wondrous scenery leaving one feel elated and blissful...one cannot help being captivated with the wonder of such a paradox where the sky is a most brilliant blue, and overflowing with billowing, soft white clouds that drift lazily along...this bountiful nature is like a feast for the eyes as preserving nature is one thing ... appreciating it is quite another.

View of sunset from Chesapeake bay bridge, Virginia

As the sun slips down it paints the sky in hues of yellow and orange. In shimmering delight the sun dazzles through into the evening. The colors swell to climax and while the reds begin to darken the clouds wear a crimson crown. We couldn't just swallow the beauty around us at the Chesapeake bay bridge but mustered enough courage to click n hold this precious momment forever.

Mount Trashmore, Norfolk

At Mount Trashmore the lush carpet of spongy grass was more welcome than anything else.This beautiful sunset sets the sky aflame and was caught only minutes before the sun actualy set.The sunset's dying spendour was a blissful site.

Shenandoah National Park, Virginia

A view of the Shenandoah National park as taken while we approached it.

Nature is lyrical in its ideal essence.At the Shenandoah National park these trees without a speck of green on them had a diffrent story to tell.They jus stretched themselves to infinity recless of the fact that they were looming without any bonds.

The woods are lovely dark and deep.I could not help but remember these lines written by Frost once I walked this curvy bend into the wilderness to ponder over more poetry.

Sunny Lake park, Ohio

The Sunny lake park at Ohio is haven for fitness lovers of the local area,but for me it was definitely more than just a joggers park...luckily i had my camera when this geese family crossed my path after collecting some dinner for the babies.

Nature is an infinite sphere of which the center is everywhere and the circumference nowhere has been very appropriately said by Pascal.Here we witness the splendid view of the Sunny lake terrific in its grandeur imparting a melancholy sensation of no ordinary description, filling the mind with awe and admiration.

Seattle downtown, Washington

Downtown of seatle-hustling and bustling with joyous vibrations comes alive as the evening draws nearer. As the street lights took off i coulnt help but capture dis moment.

Niagara Falls, NY

A pilgrimage for all nature lovers the Niagara Falls needs no introduction. Straddling the Canadian-United States international border and both in the province of Ontario and the state of New York, Niagara Falls attracts some 12 Million tourists to her majestic. It is the second largest waterfall on the globe. Never before had so much raw noise and power seemed so soothing and it left me wondering as to how had i been unfamiliar with this corner of the world.

Mounthood, Oregon

Mounthood ,Oregon was also quite an experience in itself or should i say an exhilarating one.The mountains appeared unusually dark against the periwinkle blue sky,the valleys however as seen here were strangely covered with snow maneuvering in between the mountains. Horror movie "The Shining" was shot in Timberline lodge, located next to Mounthood.

Great Falls, Virginia

Pictures taken at Great falls, Virginia.... have always reminded me to applaud Nature.The gushing and steeply falling water kind of heightens one's sensation... sort of making a person's senses come alive.

Cuyahoga Valley National Park, Ohio

Inside of the Cuyahoga Valley National Park we were surprised to see not even one tree changing its colour... here we take a look at a narrow Bridge which connected us to the shelter where we spent sumtime to grab a bite before taking in more of the magnificent greenery around us.











Much to our delight we were one of the few lucky people to have witnessed the earliest fall colour....chirpy yellows and firey oranges, flaming reds and pretty pinks, deep maroons and aging browns .. that sneaked up before us set this season apart from the others.

Fall colors at Sunny Lake park, Aurora

Brandywine Falls, Ohio

Here we take a glance at one of Ohio's finest waterfalls... Though Brandywine is not a very "massive"waterfall... it has much to say for itself.. the cascading,churning and splashing water creates a mist over d rocks below....


































This picture is invariably one if my favorites.... i was kind of Awed by the calmness and indifferent attitude of this guy.... Basking in d sunlight he gazed at the green pastures as we caught im unaware in the wilderness..

Blissful India: Naini Lake, Nainital


Beholding this picture of gloomy wilderness we descend down via a cable car in Nainital during a short trip to our native land India. An exquisite ode to the subtle beauty of this region the Naini lake looks like a source of inspiration to many.

A thing of beauty is joy forever.

Times Square

Amidst the hustle and bustle of city life

NY from atop the Empire State

From atop the Empire state, we realized the magnificence of the New York city as a whole. Chilling winds searing through our spine made our senses loose their defenses. We could feel our sensations being heightened and our imaginations running wild as we looked down.

New York city skyline

View of New York city skyline. This picture was taken during the ferry ride from Liberty Island to Freedom Park. A palette of high rise buildings which are a cynosure of the city.

This is a view of the city skyline as seen from the Brooklyn bridge.

I got a splendid view of the city skyline which I could not help but capture at the Liberty Park only a few minutes after the sun set in.

Statue of Liberty

Can anyone believe this picture was taken during Christmas time?

Here we can see Statue of Liberty in all its grandeur and poise.














As the evening sets in, we capture another view of the Statue while returning from the Liberty Island to our destination, Freedom Park.

My First Post


This moment was captured in the month of Sep 2004 at Virginia Beach, one of the best beaches of US. Though it was a bit cold and windy, it didn't have any impact on the beach goers.
