Narration |
|
This is on a day before Holi at Abhi's
home, for dinner. Typical Marathi food can be seen with Pooran poli being
my most favorite. Aunty (Abhi's mom) has prepared some special thing to
make the occasion more festive. From right : Abhi, Aunty, Ratima, Shweta,
Sharad and Lalit |
|
Holi, the festival of colors. We had gala time
playing holi with full fervor. Lalit had brought some sprinklers and that
made it wet - wet all over. The nice part about the picture is that U can
actually see the water streams out of the sprinkler |

Holi colors are difficult to get rid. All of
us expect of I replace Lalit. By the way this is Ratima's place. We had
a cool time there and in return we colored the entire place too |

Yessss ! those are the Holi colors very much
visible on all our faces. Red and blue and green and purple etc. making
the occasion very colorful and memorable. I know it is difficult to make
out faces but starting from right : Shweta, Abhi, Sharad, Lalit and Ratima |

Sunset at Bhugaon lake. It is 25 km from Pune.
Place to relax and have fun boating/kyaking. |

A pleasant evening at Bhugaon lake. The four
of us were regulars at this place. The dolphin fountain in the backdrop
make is all the most picturesque. |

At my place in Pune. This on Lalit's arrival
to Pune. From right : Shweta, Lalit and me |

Obviously me. Standing on a British (1906) cannon.
The British fort, located at Mulud - Janjira. Beach between Pune and Bombay.
The beauty of the fort is that it is on an island. U can reach to it by
boat. Amazingly one can walk to it during 4 hrs of low tide. |
|
Sunrise in Mulud. This is at the beach at 5:50
am. We (me and Sharad) had just arrived here. This was probably the first
landscape shot by Sharad with the Cannon under my direction. |
|
Stage two of sun rise at Mulud. Good part is
we still could manage to get the reflection of sun on the wet sand. With
increasing sun altitude we could manage it with some care. Also the brightness
of the sun was just right so as not to blur the film |
