For a long time I’ve had the idea to start a blog where I write on photography and related topics. I finally started it a few days back. If interested you can check out the blog here. I’m open for well written articles on any topic related to photography so if you’re interested in contributing do get in touch with me through the ‘Contact’ link on the new blog.

July 2007, Gerolstein.

August 2007, Rothenburg.
Over the past couple of years I’ve had the chance to use a fair amount of cameras, lenses and other equipment. So I decided to make a page where I could offer a fair opinion on how I found a particular photographic tool in practical use for those interested. If you are interested you can read my reviews here.

August 2007, Rothenburg (Fuji Sensia 100).
Rothenburg is a town which lies on the so called ‘Romantic Road’ in Bavaria. In spite of being quite touristy it has some well preserved, beautiful medieval buildings and is well worth a visit if you are in that part of the world. While wandering through the town we happened upon on a wedding in progress in the town’s church so went inside and witnessed a part of the proceedings as reflected in today’s photo.
I got the chance to attend a meeting of the current Dalai Lama a couple of days back in a nearby university town where he had come down to receive an honorary doctorate. He has a great sense of humor and is very very down to earth. He talked about the responsibility of science towards society and there was an interesting discussion with him about the same. He also talked briefly about how China was systematically destroying the Tibetan way of life and how he believed the Tibetan freedom struggle was perhaps a lost cause. I hope I’ll have some photos of him to share with you all soon.

August 2007, Somewhere between Paris and Cologne (Fuji Neopan 400).
With this my series of photos on Paris comes to an end, at least for now. Due to unfortunate circumstances I could only use my small rangefinder to make photos in Paris. It was a little weird to shoot exclusively with film but in the end, even with a lot of misses, I enjoyed the whole process. I only wish my plans to do a night time series on Paris had borne fruit.

June 2007, Luxembourg (Fuji Sensia 200).
Yesterday, I sold my first print so I’m currently grinning from ear to ear. 🙂 Thank you to RedBubble and the person who bought the print for making this possible.
