...Hustling wings...

Hello again,
These are the Green Bee-eaters, I took this shot at the back of Jal mahal. It's really a good place for bird watching specially for the species which live near to water. These Bee-eaters are very common in cities and as you can see it from their name their main food is bee, And their ability to catch the bee is very accurate...

...A Day in the Life...

Hello again friends,
After a short break here is a new post from me.
These kind of scenes are common here in Jaipur and specially in the main market of the city.
I gave this colour tone just to give it a little nostalgic look.....
Hope you would like it,
With regards,

...Globalization’s Inferno...

Hello again,
Another fellow from my lens but this time the contradiction of smile,
I choose the black and white tone just to give feel to the shot.
On one hand you can see the logos of different brands but on the other hand a poor little boy is rag picking around. From this shot I want to say that what kind of development we are having in our country we talk about all these things like the rising India or like India as next superpower, But all these can’t be achieve until we could provide proper education to children like him. There is a well quote by Emily Dickinson an American poet; which is like this "If you take care of the small things, the big things take care of themselves. You can gain more control over your life by paying closer attention to the little things." This is what I want to say if we take care of these small children and provide education to them then in future they definitely add their role in developing our country.
Hope you would think about this.
With regards,
Vaibhav…

Hello friends,
This photo is of a man whom i found trapped in this crual and meen world...

It's morning to you, for me another day for survival.
It's a traffic signal to you, for me it’s my workplace.
It's the blue sky for you, for me it’s my blanket.
It's cold for you, for me it's invitation to death.
It's rain for you to enjoy, but for me it's water in my bed.
It's bread for you, for me its like an oasis in a desert.
For you it could be an interesting story,but for me it's life.
My face is stodgy like a grave, from the day I was born,
Spent childhood in the cradle of spines,
And now the life is bare footed on the hot coals,
That’s may life which is without any hope……
-Vaibhav

Kind regards,
Vaibhav...

Hello friends,
This photo has transformed into this state coincidentally... Actually i was experimenting on this leaf to get the shot of the drop on it but i didn't succeed in that. Later when i was doing some photoshop work to this shot the idea of using different colours stroke in my mind and the result is in front of you...
Many people says that black and white photography is the purest form but i think colours are also as good as black and white. And on being an Indian i realize what is the importance of colours in our life..
We have different colour for different festivals and each colour has it's own meaning... Colours can define the mood, one's physical state..Many animals in the world use colours to show their feelings like the lizards use them to warn the predators and birds use them to attract the other birds for mating...Find more about colours here- http://www.color-wheel-pro.com/color-meaning.html..
Hope you like it.
With regards,

...Smile...


...Smile...

"Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing. "
-Mother Teresa

"Beauty is truth's smile when she beholds her own face in a perfect mirror. "
-Rabindranath Tagore

I found this small boy at my village Baamboli, Alwar.
He was enjoying the game of cricket with his friends in the fields,
I think that a smile can do what 1000 words can't ..
I also remember one beautiful line that is "Smile has no language".
With regards,
Vaibahv..
