Sacred Lamp Of The Day....

"The sacred lamp of day
Now dipt in western clouds his parting day".

Trying out the new camera on a weekend evening on the shores of Powai Lake.

Taken on my Canon EOS 1100D SLR camera.

The Last Show.

Mumbai is having a amazing winter. Lots of programs n parties being organized for new year's eve.  

 I thought this show by the sun on the last evening of 2011 was perfect. 

Clicked these from my house balcony. May your new year be as bright as colorful as this sunset.

Wishing everyone a very happy, healthful, peaceful, and sunny New Year !!

Taken on my Canon PowerShot A480 Point & Shoot camera.

Sunset.

This was taken from I.I.T's Guesthouse around 6:00 pm on the shores of the Powai Lake....The first picture is taken from a distance, then gradually I zoomed in.....My camera supports up to 14x zoom.

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.

Color Me Gold.....!

Living in a high rise has its advantages. There is a cloud movie happening everyday. I watch, enjoy and click......

Late summer clouds.... Fascinating how the color changes!














 

I zoomed in on the same clouds in the above picture....

Photographed looking westward from the terrace of our building. Notice the strip of  Powai Lake next to the silhouette of the tallest building.....

Experimenting in creating the same sunset colors.....

Road leading to the swimming pool at I.I.T where i practice.

Clicked with a self timer, keeping the  camera on the road divider.

It was 8:30 pm, dark and the halogen light was doing its sun-impersonation.

Sunsets.

I live on the shores of the Powai Lake. Some sunsets as clicked from my Nokia 6303........
