Oil Slick

So you take a weak sewerage line structure, a tired driver in the prime mover, a tank truck hauling the precious black gold and the patience to prance around an oil spill in the most unexpected of places; and you have yourself a beautiful reflection of the truck in a deep pool of what otherwise would have made some really expensive electricity.

Until you have a reasonable explanation of how did anyone manage to tilt an 18 wheeler at a place where the speed couldn’t possibly increase more than 15kmph; this makes for a pretty amusing sight.

Oasis

When you live in a metropolis with greenery as sparse as the rule of law in a war torn country the sight of a few well maintained coconut trees is nothing short of a treat for eyes grown weary of a concrete landscape.

Just a glimpse of the world outside the boundaries of the frame will reveal the absolute barrenness of the surroundings but we are here to treat our eyes not bore them with the redundancy of concrete structures.

Macro on iPhone

Took some time to experiment with the Macro photography on my iPhone. That would be the first presentable shot that has been managed. iPhotography has suddenly opened a whole new world for me!

Centuries past when Helious reined the skies and mortals bowed to him – the Lord of Light – it was still the Ocean which was the feared deity. For it drowned men, killed then who tasted it and swallowed the light to spread the insanity of night fall. Ocean; mother of darkness, slayer of the Lord of Light and bringer of terror which consumes men grown.

Behold, the last glorious moment of the gracious Helios and prepare for the rule of the vengeful Mother of Darkness.

Captured in Ruins

Times when things beyond usefulness suddenly don’t seem useless. In death they mingle with the barren landscape and come to life when captured in their ruin!

Turn to Gold

With dusk, a lot comes to life; things which don’t exist, colors only imagined and ideas which are mere fantasies. And if you happen to find yourself at the right place at the right time you may witness a rarity never seen before. For dusk is a fleeting moment and it’s elaborate mysteries reveal only to the fortunate few.

In the Right Shade

The right light can do wonders for a photograph; anyone who has ever used something as primitive as a point-and-shoot camera is well aware of that.

However, when your primary camera is one mounted on the phone you carry around in your pocket, mostly lightening isn’t a luxury available to you. Though that doesn’t mean that the world of creative photography is lost to you and sometimes even shadows & mere reflections provide with shots which, if nothing else, are interesting to look at.

Here are a few to validate that claim.
