A Dark Reading

Stamen

lotus stamen.. there's a small lotus pond in front of our house
so it's a constant source for images like the above..

Def Leppard with their Photograph song...
I'm out of luck, out of love
Gotta photograph, picture of
Passion killer, you're too much...
in high school i had a crush on a girl who was a
passion killer..she was too much..

Flying High... one of the times when i wished i had

Filter with Fades Like A Photograph .
Photographs taken, 
Like memories of you, they disappear.
Colors of your eyes, they fade with time 
They just can't stay clear.
fading photographs? today it's mostly HD photos and you can save them on the cloud..
Dropbox, Flickr...etc. no excuse for that crashed hard drive now..

Dewdrops on Pink

Do the Dew..
my point-n-shoot camera is decent enough for macro shots

***



Through Dark Sky

captured with camera phone.... i've got a fear of flying in them airplanes..
 flying coffins like Captain Haddock would say..

***




Nickleback with their Photograph
Look at this photograph
Everytime I do it makes me laugh...

These days if you think you look funny in a photograph and
don't want others to laugh at you press delete

Maniktala crossing

Maniktala crossing in Kolkata..... miss the place..
the only Indian city with the spacious Ambassador taxis and trams..

Fishingly Relaxing

this photo pretty much sums up my life...place where i'm in now...
good place to retire..

Michael Stipe's R.E.M with Camera
Will you be remembered? Will she be remembered? 
Alone in a crowd a bartered lantern borrowed 
If I'm to be your camera then who will be your face? 
note to self..and dear readers: mature songwriters don't like writing about photographs...
they write about the Camera(s)....and the films :)

Now seriously here's a Paul Simon song... Kodachrome..
Kodachrome 
You give us those nice bright colors 
You give us the greens of summers 
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah! 
I got a Nikon camera 
I love to take a photograph 
So Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away



if you've got time, do search for the video where Paul sings the above song with Garfunkel in Central Park.. good live performance..
