@Lakeside, India. A Visual Treat

@Lakeside, India.

It was just common off, i along with my friend went on a drive near by the town, we happened to reach the beautiful lake side, where 2 boats were parked by the local fishermen, resting in there conditions! I was in hurry taking pictures and making the use of the subject and the conditions, while dancing here and there, I lost my mobile at this location, while i came to know it was peach dark, still we tried to find it out but alas we didn’t succeeded in the attempt. so we decided to come back on the next morning again more opportunity for the shoot, so we were up early next morning, went to the place, just stepping down the car i located the phone which i was missed last evening. Although it was dramatic experience, the atmosphere was great i clicked some of my favourite pictures in between one of them is here for your visual treat!

TRIBUTE

Tribute

Exactly year ago I photographed this Mango Tree at Lake Valdevi,  now again i went to the same place to get the different mood of this alone Mango tree, but me or Mango tree, someone among us was unfortunate, as the tree was completely dead. This image is the Tribute to the dead Mango Tree.

It was 7.30am in the morning, I dropped my son at his school and went ahead for my routine location scout nearby Nashik, I decided to take this unknown road, just went ahead ignoring the bumps, stones and dust on the way, and reached this place at 7.45am walked for some 100 meters distance as there was no road ahead can’t take my car ahead a SUV could have made it, and here I reached this serene place.  Found this alone mango tree fighting his own solitude.

It was 8 a.m.; the cool breezy morning has touched my soul.  The sky was cool blue, atmosphere clear though there were some clouds in the sky. it was refreshing sparkling  grass, and mountains in the backdrop, everything in the scene was glowing with the golden morning light. I was alone experiencing the thrill of driving and photographing the nature there, I shot almost 100+ images around this place, each one has unique character, when I came back the cars hatch door was full of dust.

This amazing serene place is approx. 10 kilometers from Nashik, you need to churn down some rough road, and rough, dusty terrain to get there. I tend to document the landscapes & city-scapes around the city.
