This was technically more challenging for me , as my Nokia mobile is losing its capturing ability in low light.
Still I managed to click a few from my terrace , that was the best way to capture the scenario around , which I won’t have been able to get on my walk in neighborhood , it was a beautiful scene to enjoy so many birds on one tree, and more kept on coming , & all of a sudden in one minute they flew away …..
and this another one is of the sunset , a few kites can still be seen …
This is one of my favorite food items , & I just couldn’t resist it , but looking at my current situation I guess its time Istart keep a regular check on my diet , so this year ‘s Resolution is “Keep a Track On quantity of Food” that I consume & looking at the fact that I am not very good at exercise it seems even more important now .

So here it is the sweet little Heart shaped potato …
It makes me think that Love is in the air or in grocery bag !!!

Reflection of the greenery in the water ~ Shammee
This photo was captured at a nearby village , where rain water got collected & the nearby greenery just fit in perfectly ,
Its beautiful how such nature’s glimpses are found at such offbit places . I really like to travel at such places , where there is this utter calmness in the atmosphere & you feel such a peace of mind.
Reflection of your own state of mind can be discovered at such places ……
Being Thankful to God , is by keeping your feet on the ground even when after you have achieved a lot in life , I really hope this Thanksgiving , people would have thanked God for gifting such a beautiful life , which needs to be valued.
Thats all the simple message I have got in my Bag of quotes for this day …..
A click at the riverfront in the city
Sometimes a rare sight like this in the early peaceful morning , makes you realize you can have a moment of pause in your life before rushing into the hustle of fast pace schedule & routines ,
I so love this weekly photo challenge , I always discover a new perspective ….
It’s strange, but when you’re the only person you know who’s gone through something that’s changed you into a completely different person, for a while it’s like you’re on your own planet….
Solitude has different meanings & everyone has different way to perceive it , some people find crowded place as the best place to lose oneself & find their solitude in such a environment , while some like to go off to wander along the lonely tracks , totally cut off from any communication or contact ….
Some are habituated to live in solitude , while some appreciate solitude time once in a while ….
Here are few pics that i think goes very well with the theme ….
| — | Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet |
->“I think it’s very healthy to spend time alone. You need to know how to be alone and not be defined by another person.”
->“Reflection must be reserved for solitary hours; whenever she was alone, she gave way to it as the greatest relief.”
~Jane Austen from Pride and Prejudice
Last Christmas I went to Dubai for a trip , & I just fell in love with it , here are some beautiful pictures of my memories which I think suits the current theme
This pic was shot at the entrance of H.H. Sheikh ‘s palace , ruler of Dubai , peacocks just wander around there freely , it was so surprising . I have never seen so many peacocks wandering around freely even in the presence of so many people. We fed them chips & they really liked it .
Dubai mall ha sits own attractions , one of them was this Ice Rink , even though I didn’t tried it , i could still feel the free spirit of people who were moving around the ice so swiftly , like no barriers , just going with the flow …..
This exotic waterfall appeals to me more in the form of letting yourself free , the upside down , makes it even more intensify , it just goes with the theme of Free spirit .
This pic was taken at Sandy Beach Fujairah UAE , while walking on the beach , able to look at my mirror image , feeling the water waves crack at my feet now and then , & listening to the voice of ship going far , it was like I was in 3rd dimension , even in the middle of such a public place, I found my solitude . Free from all the worldly boundaries , flying across …..
This shot was captured by me at Jumeirah beach , Dubai , it was a beautiful moment captured.
I am glad we didn’t got the parking place on the 1st floor of Emirates mall, in the search of parking slot we headed up straight to the terrace , & I couldn’t stop gazing at the beautiful sunset , between the high rise buildings , it was like sun was biding good bye to me , this was the last day i was staying in Dubai , & I just stood there for couple of moments biding farewell to Dubai & taking all those beautiful memories with me.
The all time busy road of Ahmedabad
A beautiful walk , by the river side , relaxes you from the hustle of traffic .
A festival celebrated by everyone .
So this are a few glimpses of my city , well there are many more, but I couldnt capture it. So enjoy the trailer version
