Went with my friends to Besant Nagar beach, Chennai. Snapped the dog against the sun and it looked like as though juz the shadow of the dog is walking :)

07.Feb.2009: Doggy Love


Juz outside our home in Chennai, heard the puppies. Went near the gate to see what it is. Then I ran to get my cam and clicked this. You can see how the mother dog is lying down in somewhat uncomfortable manner to feed the puppies. This shows the motherly love or should I call it Doggy love :)

14.Dec.2008: Dog resting in shadow

30.Jul.2009: Irony - Dreaming Vs Expectation.

"Dream a lot so that it will get shape one day".
"Dreaming sincerely leads to the destination you wanted to reach"

You would have been told by your elders or friends or atleast heard things like that somewhere. The above sayings mean that Dreaming lets you attain whatever you wanted with sincere efforts towards that.

And now look at the below statements:
"Dont expect too much"
"Keep your expectations low"
"Its better not to develop expectations"

You would have heard these statements too by almost the similar lot of people who have told you about dreaming.

If you look at what exactly a dream means, you will find that dreaming is expecting something. What an irony!!

So now what would you have to do? Should you not dream or not have expectations? No way buddy and you can dream and have to have expectations for sure. As our beloved APJ Abdul Kalam says "Dream is something that you dont do while you sleep. It is something that does not make you sleep".

So, you can dream of whatever you want provided you work towards that to make it happen. More important, your dream should not depend on anyother individual other than you. The moment your dream is dependent on others you will seldom move towards what you had dreamt of.

Thus the secret lies in dreaming things that are there within your control only. So dream!! Be it small, big or medium and wishing you all the best to attain it - YOUR EXPECTED DREAM :)

24.Mar.2008: Clicking KRam.


In my friend Prabakar's wedding reception in Pattukottai, TamilNadu, I snapped KRam (he is Kotahandaraman, but we used to call him KRam :) when he tried to take a snap of all our friends sitting in the marriage hall.

23.March.2008: Tanjore Temple


Some of my friends went to one of our friend, Prabakar's marriage in Pattukottai, TamilNadu. On the way from Trichy, we went to this beautiful Big Temple, Bragatheeswarar Temple , at Tanjore built by the Great Chola King Rajaraja Cholan. This particular view was too good and snapped it immediately. Later on all of us took a snap with this as in the background :)

21.01.2006
This is another snap which Anu took when we were returning in train from my native Tirupattur, Vellore district to Bangalore. Should I say that even this snap was published in her company's internal site that time? Yes, it did :)
