You and your camera

You need life for living, right?

So does your hobby. how a camera can take photo if you do not make it to take some.
So, carry one with you.
You may have something inside to tell the world, you may have found something to share with your world. Bring them, grow them in your camera, shape them in your computer, give them a final life in your print or a in a web post.

Live life of yours through you. You do what you want to do.

I always thought about taking a barber shop's photo on my morning walk road. The barber come early, cleans his shop floor, chairs, put washed towel on the window and wait for his customers. This is life, waiting is life.

I wanted to capture that. But was always shy to take his photograph. He knows me and I was sure he will find taking his photograph a bit awkward.

One day I brought my camera NEX3 with a Pentax K30mmf2.8 with me. The moment I took the up to my shoulder, my friend ran moved away quite fast. Luckily the shop owner still didn't noticed me.

So, I got this...

Kaas plateau - impossibly natural

You are lucky if you stay near Satara. If not, pack your camera, reach Kasara or Pune to reach this place. You will be welcome by a patient nature who did impossibly natural beauties there. We had hard time trying close our jaws and keeping our eyes open. Kaas is a flower land, a plateu full of varieties of flowers. They grow naturally, they live for a short time, like any other beauties. And the place keep on bringing new varieties within days. It all happens in June to October beginning, depending on temperature, humidity of the time. Lets stop talking or reading, start seeing the faint tr that me could through a mere light sealed box and lenses.
