Just when the routine was getting sedate and I was desperately looking to find something exciting in life, the 'The Dream Merchants' gifted me a brand new Canon EOS11 DSLR, ushering in, what would be my new found interest - photography. Ever since I got my hands on that machine, I look at everything around me with a singular approach - how can I capture the frame in such a way that the image speaks about itself. I know, I know, its early days yet, but this new love for photography is addictive and is turning me crazy.
What kind of photography interests me ? Well, for now, lets just say, its street photography that's most intriguing and captivating. That said, I have clicked a few good ones of the natural elements. As I got closer to the man on the street and the nature through my pictures during the past few weeks, my wife kept complaining that she never featured in any of my art..err..photography, yet ! And so, realising the consequences of the grave 'mistake', I instantly added a new 'sub-interest' to my principal interest i.e, portraits..mostly involving the missus.
I picked up a good tripod, bought a professional account on flickr and have already started searching for an addition to my existing portfolio of a kit lens and a zoom lens - in the form of a prime lens. My birthday is just around the corner and so, those of you who are desperately scratching your heads thinking about what to buy me for my birthday, you know what to get me as a gift.
I have been getting some good words and a lot of encouragement from the gang, especially, Lamba, Sheetal, Savy, Suppy, as well as some of Missus' friends. To all of you folks, atleast a part of my art would surely be influenced by your positive push. Thank you and I promise to come out with stuff that you'll perhaps love.
Everything that I talk, that I do these days, I try to compliment with pictures, and therefore, here are some of the images of what I spoke a short while ago.

Until next time,
Doks !
