Red metal !!

My first set of photographs in our new home.

One fine sunday morning, my mother had washed these Copper vessels
absolutely bright and clean, and put them in sun for them to get dry.
I just happened to walk past them, (after getting out of bed at 3 'O
clock after noon, and the idea 'clicked' my mind first. Then I took out
my DSC W35 and set onto the assignment. It hardly took 15 minutes to
click about 35-40 photographs. It was really difficult (as usual) to pick only
one out of it, and so I chose four, not just one.


The monochromatic feel of the photographs is what appeals to me,
along with the glow that is imparted to it by the sunlight.


Equipment/s used : Sony DSC W35
Editing : Added sharpness and saturated the colours

Unknown Flower

This is one flower I photographed in my backyard.
Although I do not know its name, I liked it very much.

If anybody knows about it, please let me know.

I like the sharp difference between the focus of the two
flowers.

Utricularia Purpurascens

This is a flower typical to the Western Ghats of India.
It is called 'सीतेची आसवॆ' in maraaThee, whose botanical name is
"Utricularia Purpurascens".

It was shot at the Kaas plateau, which is also called the
"valley of flowers" of Maharashtra. The dark purple colour
actually also emits ultraviolet radiations, which are visible to
various insects and birds, who cause pollination of these
flowers. Emitting Ultraviolet radiations is thus one of the
ways of promoting its pollination.


Editing : Crop, sharpening

Color me pink!

This is a nice macro I caught hold, of while on one of my casual outings to suburbs of Pune at Talegaon, in one of my friend's garden. The picture simply reflects the brightness and the liveliness of that morning. Beginning of a busy day with a nice bright start.

This one is one of my personal favourites. Enjoy! : D

It forms a nice fullscreen desktop. Trust me! If anyone wants unedited version of it, please mail me.

Down close with a vasp

On a casual afternoon, one monsoon day, I happened to see this vasp underneath a large leaf, and chose it to be my model for that shoot.

This is the closest shot I could take with my camera, after cropping the image.
On closing in on the image, one gets confused with the position of the eyes.


This frame shows the egg of the vasp, in the tube on the left. The focus lies on the egg itself.

Camera used : SONY DSC-W35
Editing : Cropped two of the three images with picasa
