A DAY IN SOVABAJAR (PART 2)

2011-02-03T07:21:00.000-08:00

I always love to write something about what I upload. What I want express through these photographs, what are my views and angles....everything. The day I visited sovabajar in Kolkata I knew a very unusual sites of kolkata. This kolata sometime reflects the beauty, sometime the raw city life which I wanted capture in my camera. The fascinating Ganges river sometimes reflects as a beauty queen and sometime I see a queen of garbage. Its very surprising fact that in my country very few persons are there who really pay some attention. One more thing that I saw in the city is, what I call as "DEATH OF ALMIGHTY". I captured some so called "GOD" lying on the footpath. These are that Gods whom we take home with such a lot of care and respect and after the Puja no one knows what happens to them. This part of Kolkata reminds me of so called religious places where people has to wait in a 3 mile queue to see a glance of god. Not only that dirty garbage, filthy areas exposes the worst site of our city. But my dear foreigner freinds I must tell you one thing. This part what you are seeing right now is actually a very less part of our city Kolkata. You will be amazed to see the actual city which deals with high rises and highways and so lot of eye catching sites in the city. My city is a part of Incredible India!!!!!!!

LIFE IN RURAL BENGAL

2011-01-12T09:06:00.000-08:00

guys...The expedition in rural village ends here with lots of happiness in my mind..happiness to get such an opportunity to go to the village and click these photographs..The tribal families, the kids, the housewives bathing in pond and whole scenic beauty, I have seen there, has been shared. Hope the people seeing my blog around the world will get to know a lot about my country's rural life. Recently I was in Victoria Memorial, one of the amazing architecture built by the british in our country India (city-Kolkata). My next blogging will be hopefully on that topic. I have tried my best to showcase all the beauty it has with it. Lets see how much my audience will like it.....AND DON'T FORGET TO MAKE SOME COMMENTS. BECAUSE YOUR COMMENTS MAKE ME BETTER THAN WHAT I AM...see yaaaa.....bye...

In the world of b&w

2010-10-31T18:06:00.000-07:00

I had some collection of black and white photographs..I often become confused of what photographs are to be transformed to black and white..I posted some of them..only for my sir.....:)

I was fascinated once with the lighting effect on the building.

In the second one...the art is made in the wall of the temple.

third one is the potrait of my niece.

I liked the posture the horse made.

the activity in the rivers seems to be much more attractive for me.

Brigade Ground

well..I always take my city Kolkata..as the queen of India...the beauty, the grace, the iternity that one can feel in this city is really noticable..Today when I was in Maidan (Brigade Ground), the frace air charmed me, wet grass touched me, smell of wet soil revealed some unrevealed beauty og it..its my city...its the city of charm, its the city of passion, its the city of feeling..

holy monarche

2010-10-29T09:34:00.000-07:00

well..one more thing that always attract me is the holy temples of our country..From the rural areas to jam pack urban areas....lakhs of temple with rich architectural examples are present...As a student it is not possible for me to click all these temples...but some of them where I have gone really attracted me..one example is there...I "tried" my best to focus on the structural beauty of the architecture in this "photograph".

there is a custom in our country to throw money in the river as we take Ganges as our Godess...the girl in this photo has an uniqe occupation to throw magnet in the river and take those coins out....this is her income....how strange...

2010-10-26T18:18:00.000-07:00

India will always attract anyone around the world to come here and heve the essence of our culture, beuaty, and nature.

I call this snap as Mr. Lonely...I feel how it could be, floating in the river all the day alone with no other companion.

2010-10-26T18:05:00.000-07:00

Well, this is an another snap of the river Ganges. Sir Tom Dinning told me to give some new more snap of Ganges. Here is one more. The boats in the river always facinates me.
