We are a part of the rushed generation, always in a hurry to get somewhere. How often do we look up at the sky and admire the beautiful patterns that change everyday to please us? I realised that the sky has its own set of moods and the designs and colors reflect them accordingly. Next time you step outside, stop and look up. You may be surprised at what you see :)
Here are a few pictures from my collection. Some were taken at the crack of dawn, some at dusk and some in the daytime, some during night, some are of the sun, some are of the moon (oh, watch for my post on the moon, dont know when i will finish it, but im sure you will like it :) ). Hope you enjoy these pictures.

your page is getting more and more interesting Aamir.
ReplyDeleteLovely sky, yes it changes moods but the mood of Madras sky always remains the same.
Pointing the digital directly to the sun is bit risky Aamir.
Breathtaking shots of the sky and sunset, and the one with the slim streak of cloud. For some reason, whenever I see those streaks in the sky, they make me wistful. But they also remind me of when planes used to leave that wisp of smoke behind them, which as a child brought those same feelings. I seldom see them anymore; either from planes or the clouds themselves. Cirius clouds, possibly? I must say, your photographer brings out one's emotions. Keep up the inspiring work!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the sunrise, it is gorgeous. I have always promised myself someday I will see a sunrise with the person I love the best. I avoid the rising sun like a plague as not to spoil the gift. I’m always thrilled to see pictures of the dawn.
ReplyDeletethank you rauf. I always believe that "The only thing constant in life is change". Call it an oxymoron, but it is true. Being a saggitarian, i seek variety and changes, get bored seeing the same thing everytime :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, the sun pictures were from my old camera and i did not know it back then not to point the camera to the sun. I realised it when the pictures started showing up choppy and found out that the image processor and sensor in the camera does not like very shary contrast and brightness variation across a broad spectrum. Thanks for reminding me though, i wont do it with this camera.
Thank you Frida. The best place to see the sunset and sunrise is from an airplane. There are some private companies that arrange one hour sunrise and sunset air tours and they aren't that expensive. You may want to do that for your birthday ;) or maybe try skydiving.. you know.. it is cooler up there :)
ReplyDeleteHi Darlene... Thank you for your nice comments and welcome to my blog. Im glad you liked the pictures.
ReplyDeleteI read what you wrote on Frida's blog about your garden and how you want to preserve nature. I replied on Frida's blog. Take care and see you around.
you're gona sock me for this, but man, i'm sure you stole these pics from the BBC weather site :p hehe, gorgeous pics, bro, i loved the 12th pic !! so as a birthday gift, you can give me your camera :D i want it!! i want it!!!
ReplyDeleteoh, and also the 18th pic; it's beautiful :) but as Rauf said, isn't it risky to take direct shots at the sun ?
ReplyDeletethose are some serious allegations boo :P

ReplyDeletenot sure whether you're able to even access blogger or not, but respond whenever you can-no hurry.
sorry it's taken me so long to comment here. your page takes a while to come up for me, probably just because you have a lot on your site. i will add you to my links sometime soon, after i come up with some other people to add when i can get some time to visit other sites.
thanks very much for providing the music by Celine Dion "I Drove All Night." I've heard that song once before & wow, i love it & must get more of her music(already have lots by her)!
awesome sky images(especially loved 1, 4 & 22) and graduation & fashion photos...& your plane pictures put every one of mine to shame!
i also had NO idea that even though i delete posts, they still exist! i'll have to check that out. hmmm...makes me wonder if i ever posted something, deleted it that i'd rather nobody see. well anyway, i can't remember.
thanks for all your comments on my blogs!!! they are much appreciated!
There are more gadgets on your site than the space shuttle! I am disappointed, the map won't show my house. I think I'm too close to a military installation.
ReplyDeleteawesome photos! I saw some awesome lightening in Las Vegas...i wish i had my camera with me.
ReplyDeleteGangadhar, Thanks for the comments, and sorry you wont be posting in blogspot anymore. I will see you there are WP. Take care
ReplyDeletekeshi, no problem. I love GNR too. I have been busy the last couple of days, will comment on your blog soon. Take care.
ReplyDeleteRauf, glad that you have access now. Take care. Keep blogging
ReplyDeletePatty, thank you so much for your nice compliments and welcome to my blog. I have reduced the number of posts that show up on my main page, so you wont have problems loading my blog. Blogspot has been slow off late and i had problems accessing blogs from home and work.
ReplyDeleteI access blogspot from California and as far as i know, comcast has not blocked this domain and i am sure they will NEVER do it :) Take care and c ya around

ReplyDeleteKathy, did you win? I bet Las Vegas was hotter than here...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments.

ReplyDeleteu use a professional cam? which model ?
hi ajay, Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteI have a Canon EOS 30D and yes, it is a Digital SLR. The pics you see here in my blog were taken either with the EOS 30D or with a Canon Powershot S230 digital point and shoot but off late, i only use the EOS (the one i am holding in my profile pic).
Take care
