Fountain magnificent

I shot this picture in one of the French boutiques called Kalki. They have this colorful fountain during the off-winter seasons. This particular day when I went there, it was really windy. And the water from the fountain was sprinkling all over. It was a nice scene. I wanted to capture the fountain with its colors, but the street light at the back kept distracting this view and spoiling my shots. I finally settled for this one.

Thai chakra

I took this shot at a local Thai restaurant in Pondy in the summer of 2010. The decor here is simply beautiful. I took many shots that day, in between my bites, especially because it was unusually empty. The color of the wall here is red. The shine on the wall was caused due to the lights that were directly projected on these artifacts. The details on this one is simply beautiful. I did add some picassa touch to this image to reduce the effects of the lights, but for some reason couldn't get rid of the shine from the wall.

It's my lake..

This shot was taken at the same lake. This bird ( I dont know what kind it is, but it is supposedly a famous breed ) was looking majestic! I actually wanted to take a shot while it was flying, but could not get any decent shot. It was walking on the wooden wall for a while as if it owned the lake and merrily fishing. Eventhough I like this shot, it cannot do justice to the actual experience. Hope you will like it as much as I do. Later on enquiring with the local wild life authorities, I found what this bird is. Its an Egret.
