One morning passing by - in a bus

Going by office bus in monsoon mornings in Mumbai is a different experience. The whole city is drenched, almost Green, people are everywhere but you can still feel the cool hug of moist air.
The whole city becomes content, people go to work, but you can feel their happiness in this rain soaked city. Mumbai sucks rain like a sponge, get itself clean like a glass, dress herself like a lady out of a fall.

I shoot with my beloved Nex-3 mounted with a Industar 50mm f3.5. An M42 lens older than me. shots are imprompty, through the window of the bus, while moving.

Photos here are not for document, facts, stories. They are for your own feelings. Look for the symbolic graphical blacks, whites, greys in between, look for shapes, impressions.

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.
