Oz-zoo
The Taronga zoo was a delight to visit. I may have been the best wildlife enclosures that I have ever visited. Although I judge myself for taking easy way out to take photos of the animals behind bars and glass but I could not feel a little fulfilled after capturing some emotions and tight shots.…

Dream
I am so glad about the subject of lens artists challenge this week. I went for a short photo walk today. the colours of autumn are setting in the south of England. The green is leaving and the skies are turning grey ( well, they were grey to begin with, this is England ). I…

Bravehearts and Seawaves
Last weekend, my wife and I went on a leisurely bike ride to the cute beach town of Dawlish in south west England. I would say that it is a short bike ride per British standards ( 45ish Kms circuit? ). There was a nice warm start to the day with the golden sandy beaches…

York and Monochrome Sepia
I’ve been looking forward to this weekend when I would get the chance to go through the photos that I clicked in York, Yorkshire recently using my new ( new old actually ) Olympus camera – Olympus OM-D-EM1 ii 🥳 It is quite an upgrade from the 1st generation Oly EM10. I am going to…

Lisbon and Ektar
Some film photos of Lisbon streets – undoubtedly one of the coolest cities to walk around and capture stories. I figured that it will be a nice time to try out Ektar 100 in summer when there will be ample light in the narrow streets of Lisbon. The favourite subject in the city is obviously,…

Thresholds
Through the streets of some European cities, shots of doors some open some closed. Some with people waiting on the thresholds and some with a blanket of darkness inside. Some of the photos of doors from recent trip to Athens and Lisbon. An art corner in the streets of Athens. Typically, I like to capture…

Backgrounds
This is probably my favourite photo challenges. I love to find stories with multiple layers – something interesting with the subject and how it ties with the background. I captured this shot in Santorini, Greece while walking through the streets of Fira. The Caldera makes for the best background that a photographer could ask for,…

Winter Streets
Dawn’s Monochrome Madness post reminded me of the photos that I took in the last weeks of winter. It is interesting that it is not only the humans who feel doleful during winters, the streets also get gloomy. The grand streets of touristy towns like Bath are also not as bustling as they would be…

Scope
In the midst of a narrow trail in nearby park, a clear winter day offered a beautiful view of a distant church. I love this trail especially because of the canopy of trees which create a tunnelling effect. It is especially fun to play around with vintage lenses in this trail. This photo, however was…

Strada
When in Rome, carry your camera. -Anonymous Photographer There is a beautiful composition in every corner of Rome. A beautiful city with amazing architecture which was a delight for me while trying out my hand at street photography. In this photo, I played a bit with hue and colours to accentuate the yellows of the…

Confined
Turn any corner in Rome and you may find a tunnelling alley leading up to a beautiful piece of architecture. One of the most beautiful cities to do street photography. Posted for Dan’s Thursday Doors.

Windowful
London – she inspires street style of photography. Shoot in colour or without, there are always interesting stories walking around in London. Posted for Leanne’s Monochrome Madness

Dew and Bubbles
While practising photography as a hobby, clicking photos of bokeh has been the most fun. It does not always need to be smooth and silky. Sometimes, the bubbles are fun to have in the bokeh.

Rust
With the spring season upon the northern hemisphere and beautiful colours starting to bloom everywhere, it is almost nostalgic to remember the rustic colours of autumn and winter. Posted for Cee’s Midweek Madness Challenge

Sprung
Rome is one of the most beautiful cities that I have been too. Away from the crowded tourist locations and the monuments, the charm of back alleys of Rome is just hypnotising. Posted for Dan’s Thursday Doors

Pop
Neither British weather nor the British fashion usually offer a lot of colour, especially in the winters. It is a delight to capture pops of colour in otherwise gloomy wintery streets of London. The film here is Lomography CN 400 and like I pointed out in some other posts, it does well with the reds.

Bridged
London is one of my favourite places to shoot street. The thing that I like the most is juxtaposition of old and new in London but every now and then you see pops of colour in the chic parts of the city that just make you fall in love with the city in yet another…

Push
A cute photo that I was able to take of three generations pushing a stroller through streets of Camden, London. The elements of the house and the street bring nice pops of colours to the photo – bright blue door is the start in my opinion, followed closely by the post box. Once again, Lomography…

Charm
A random shot in Camden, London with Lomography CN 400. The film shining again with deep reds and excellent low light performance. The bokeh elements are courtesy of the humble Canon kit lens.
