In Deep Thought?

Date: February 21, 2009 Categories: Art, On-Stage, Photoblog Comments: No Comments Share:

Those few moments before you go on stage are different for different people! there was a time I remember when I just started playing music, that I would get really nervous before a show and those last few minutes before the show started, I would be fully quiet and trying to run through all that I have to do on stage! This was one of those [...]

Siva’s Glow!

Date: February 21, 2009 Categories: Music, On-Stage, Photoblog Comments: No Comments Share:

Siva always gets a raw deal WRT photographs during the show. Most photographers tend to focus heavily on the guys in front and neglect the drummer . However, he always has the best shots during sound check! Its quite wierd for me to be part of the band doing a soundcheck and my camera always next to me so I can click some shots for the blog!

Yakshagana!

After our show today, there was a Yakshagana performance and this was taken backstage where the Yakshagana artistes were getting ready to go up on stage. These guys take a LOT of trouble to get their makeup and costume perfectly right before their performance. Sometimes, it takes close to 3 hours for the whole group to get ready! They then [...]

Infact thats where I got my 18-200mm lens from and more recently, my LowePro camera bag and other accessories from. This is him in his [...]

My Dad – The Journalist

Date: February 19, 2009 Categories: Family, Photoblog Comments: No Comments Share:

My dad retires next month! he as been a journalist for over 30 years now and has worked with almost all the mainstream newspapers in Bangalore across 3 different languages! I know it is going to be very difficult for him (and for anyone really) to one day stop doing what they were doing for over 30 years and it is going to be a dramatic switch [...]

Pilot!

Traffic in Kolkotta is CRAZY! and to add to that, our taxi driver from the airport to our friend’s house was quite a maniac! he kept weaving in and out of traffic like he was a bicycle! I think this was the closest I have seen anyone drive next to another vehicle without even scratching it! and on a consistent basis This was taken at [...]

The Bulldog

This guy was at the Melrose Apartments in Delhi where I stayed for the weekend. He is really really old and has to be the cutest dog ever! He just comes and sits by you and has such a peaceful look that you just can’t help but smile and pet him!
