Shot Through The Windows

Windows are the gateway to the world. I am not talking about Microsoft Windows here, but physical windows.

I love to frame them in my pictures wherever & whenever possible.

They offer a unique perspective to the outside view while being in a building, train or a plane. Always look for windows when I go to any place and see if I can get a good shot.

There might be a stark contrast between what we are experiencing inside and what we perceive through the window. Won’t you agree?

Here I present some of my shots of Windows or more precisely “ Shot Through The Windows”

Dream Drive of 4124Kms

Start of a Dream Every thing starts with a dream; unless you dream you cant achieve any thing. One such dream of many years was to drive from Delhi to our ancestral village across central India by our own car & park it in front of our house and the farm. Our Home town is Tenali around 1800km from Delhi and our village Pothumarru a further 12 km. It's my dad's idea and he had planned a tentative route based on the information available. It was ready on paper and remained so for some years due to - - Not much information available on the road conditions. - Safety across the lonely roads of central India. - Not having much confidence & experience on long distance driving. - In our minds Tenali was always so far away that it needed to be reached by train! Motivation: By 2016, road conditions had improved a lot. Many road travel enthusiasts traveled extensively all over India and also this route. The information shared first-hand in travel forums like ...

Perfect Timing

Perfect Timing Punctuality has never been the strong point in India . My experience has been that majority of people in India neglect the importance of time & being punctual. In fact not being punctual is credited to the importance of the person or event & it varies proportionally with the significance of the person. We see it in daily life, for example, for a meeting in office 5 -10 min delay is expected and followed, For a dinner party at 8, arriving at 9 pm adds to your persona and importance. The chief guest at a function is expected to arrive at least 2 hrs late and the participants are never disappointed. Larger public image the chief guest has, the later he should arrive. This attitude eventually reflects on a larger scale in Govt projects, policies, judiciary, Railways too. I found most of the times that the information on Trains is hardly accurate. Trains are delayed for various reason...

A Broader Perspective

We as humans think mighty of ourselves, we always boast of what we achieved as a race & as an individual. We feel proud about the amazing structures we have built on our planet & the significant technological advancements we have made. Yes we have been to the moon and our probe has reached safely to mars and is sending out images for us to understand our universe better. We as humans also argue over trivial matters with our friends, family, colleagues, acquaintances. Fight over preferred seat in a train, parking, overtaking on roads, standing in queue, favorite channel in TV, the list is endless. But what we don’t realize is, how insignificant these things are & how insignificant we are in the larger sense of universe, if we look in a broader perspective. To emphasize what I am trying to say & to prove that I am not being philosophical, let me show you….. 1. Our planet Earth, our home is the third planet from ...
