Stones


If they could speak, each stone would tell us a story.
Have a look. Then ask me.

Tracks


Seeing is believing, they say.
Hey, I see the tracks meeting at far end.
Well, they don’t. Its just an illusion …!

With the kind of population explosion that our country faces, bringing the demand–supply ends to meet remain an illusion. God help us!

The Cloud


"Every dark cloud has a silver outline."

This one had lots of silver rays too. That is why my 8-year old son thought it resembled Lord Ganesha! Hmmm...

Stage


All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players.

-William Shakespeare


Two Charpois (cots) one each on left & right, covered & decorated with bed-sheets formed the stage of this puppet show, which I enjoyed during our stopover near a highway restaurant.

Shapeless


Is this a bird, an animal, a lady or just an alien? I saw this dead tree base while roaming in Champaner to collect info about my Champaner-Pavagadh blog. However, this shapeless shape caught my attention for no particular reason and I thought of arriving at some conclusion on its shape, at leisure. So far I have’nt been able to. Help me out…!
