Inspired

Thank you google doodle for introducing me to such a brilliant artist Robert Doisneau and his beautiful work. I found his photographs absolutely amusing and intriguing. The images took to me to my childhood days when life was so simple and just gorgeous. There was no complexity. People had simple goals, few expectations, and knew how to enjoy life out of almost nothing. His work has such a simplicity to it yet passing such strong sentiments.

This one was my favourite of them all! Just won my heart :) Me and my sister have spent priceless time together. Its just amazing to have a sister and no one else can replace that space in your life. I mean it :)

Absolutely adorable :) Remember those summer school trips?

I am so much in love with 'Paris' and this picture is almost pulling me back to the city!
When Abhay and I had visited the city last year, we used to select a restaurant only if it offered us to sit outside. We really didn't pay much attention to the menu. :D

Cute :)

Those school benches. Ah! I miss them :) I wonder how I used to even fit in there !

I truly believe - If this beautiful monument is in your frame, then you don't have to a professional photographer to take a good photograph. It automatically becomes one :) Trust me. If I will ever go to Paris again, I am going to spend a whole day near Eiffel Tower !

This is vision. Seeing art in your daily life. I don't want to be a brilliant photographer. I just want to capture the beauty in my life.
Thank you Robert Doisneau for inspiring me ! :)

Life!

Life full of surprises!

I always love surprises and mostly how my body and brain reacts to it. I just can't stop smiling when the surprise is being revealed to me and I feel that even my voice changes .. haha .... And there is a real adrenaline rush that goes in my body :D I literally feel that the world is moving faster when I am excited (Funny but I am even typing faster while thinking about it :D)

I think its Abhay who has planned maximum surprises for me in my life. It was one of  my birthdays when Abhay and My Sis had planned a dinner for me and my parents at Leela Palace, Bangalore. The day is still very clear in my head. I had gone to office and had a wonderful celebration planned by my office team and when I returned home , I could feel something strange about how my parents were behaving. I think they were not able to contain in the surprise :D And yes! My whole family was the partner in crime :) So ideally, it would be me who would suggest 'Dinner at Leela Palace' and my Mom or Papa would defy the idea giving some or the other reason. However , that day this idea came from the other end and I just couldn't believe my ears. Birthday Celebration at Leela Palace ?? I am ON (I didn't think I could afford it with my THEN-SALARY ;) but as my Papa was with me and his ATM card with him,there was nothing to worry :D). I didn't want to kick away my good luck and thus, without arguing or any ifs or buts I agreed and we all rushed towards Airport Road, Bangalore.

Auto!!!! I screamed.
An Auto Rickshaw stopped.
Bhaiya , Leela Palace. Airport Road?
Madam - 60!! (He meant 60 bucks)
60 bucks for Airport Road? (By meter it should hardly be 30 Rs, my brain calculates)
My Mom says 'Thats fine, lets go'

HOLD ON!! That can't be possible. My Mom had no idea where is Leela Palace and generally she is the last person to intervene in such moments. I could feel something fishy already........And then we reached the hotel. OH MY GOD !!! Time for SURPRISE :) The restaurant manager was waiting for us and when I entered the restaurant,my jaw had dropped :O There was this special table setup outside for us by the fountain and amazing food and lovely cake waiting for us. It was such a beautiful surprise I am never going to forget all my life.

But there are suprises that no one plans for you. You just happen to be in the right place at the right time and I have been experiencing such moments often lately.

First it was bollywood movie shooting two weeks back. Then it was Fashion week ramp show at canary wharf last week. And today morning when I opened the window, it was snowing at birmingham!!!! I couldn't believe my eyes. Snowing in the month of April? Really? I had just packed all my woollen garments a few weeks back. At this stage of my life , when I am hopping from one place to the other so frequently and literally have no luxury to choose where I can be, it indeed feels splendid when such tiny little surprises knock your door. It fills my heart with joy and my face with a smile :)


Here some pics of the Fashion week btw :)

Thanks for reading :)

Take Care !

And I heard ...

After a long long wait, I finally heard my little angel's voice. I talked to her on phone yesterday and when I said a 'Hello' , I immediately heard a babbled hello back ........Hurraaahhh!! She finally spoke :)

Muaaahhhhhhhh :-*
