Cloud Shadows
Clouds seem to fly real low here in the UK. I got to shoot this picture while on a walk in Woldingham. A video would have been even better, because those shadows move quite fast over the land.
Karwar – back to roots…
Karwar is a town in Karnataka, very close to the Goa border. My family hails from a small village, Sadashivgad, based on the outskirts of Karwar. Rabindranath Tagore described Karwar as the 'Kashmir of South India', alluding to the beauty of its lush greenery and amazing beaches. (Personally, I think what cemented his love for the place was the incredible variety of fresh fish available in the local markets )
Here are some pictures I shot in Karwar (including my ancestral house and our cat).

Aaah, nice place to sit on a treetrunk with your tail comfortably tucked-up behind you...

Neo-optico-machinus!
New camera! After ranting on about how I'd been thinking of buying a dSLR camera, I finally took the plunge(!!!) today - bought a superb new Canon EOS 400D with an extra Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM telephoto lens.
Lots of photographs coming up soon :)
The Moon at the Isle of Wight
This is a photograph I took of our good old moon(!!!) at the Isle of Wight in the UK. I use a Panasonic Lumix FZ7. It's a bridge superzoom camera, falls between compact cameras and SLRs. I've been thinking of buying an SLR for a long time, but they come with a high price-tag and I'm not sure I'm committed enough to photography to warrant that kind of expenditure. Let's see.....
Update: I finally bought an SLR !
