Rigging Ragging Rafting - Rishikesh 2011

The Routine


The Routine, originally uploaded by SwappyIT.

Shot taken at G K S Dam near Guna (M.P. , India).
I dilemma existed while clicking, while posting and still here while blogging,
What should be the extent of Privacy ?
What should be the extent a Photographer can proceed ?
Where should one Stop ?

Creative Nudity and Pornography have always walked on the thin line.
This shot though not provocative, still made me think !

Good Morning People :)

There's No dark side of the moon really. Matter of fact, it's all dark - eclipse

All that you touch
All that you see
All that you taste
All you feel.
All that you love
All that you hate
All you distrust
All you save.
All that you give
All that you deal
All that you buy,
beg, borrow or steal.
All you create
All you destroy
All that you do
All that you say.
All that you eat
And everyone you meet
All that you slight
And everyone you fight.
All that is now
All that is gone
All that's to come
and everything under the sun is in tune
but the sun is eclipsed by the moon. . .

Morning Raaga


Morning Raaga, originally uploaded by SwappyIT.
An Early Morning Shot on the way to Village and Hiking tour.
Loved the Light at the end of horizon, a tiny silhouette, rural backdrop, and tinge of glow in the saree.
