Tribhanga Here, There and Everywhere

Posted by: Aadisht on: August 27, 2009

So about two years ago I had linked to the blog of a guy called Anil Menon, where I had got a whole bunch of fundaes which I used to make questions for my KQA quiz. This year, I found out that Anil Menon is actually a sci-fi writer. Here is an interview of Anil [...]

Urban Decay Photography

Posted by: Aadisht on: April 22, 2009

A year or two ago, this photo-essay on abandoned school buildings in Detroit was quite popular on the internet. It’s very scary and depressing, while simultaneously being very cool. Then in September or October last year I came across this forum post about half-constructed buildings in Bangkok that were never completed because the East Asian [...]

When Doves Invade

Posted by: Aadisht on: March 16, 2009

So this morning, a little bird decided to fly through the open window into our living room. Once inside, it perched on our cordless phone’s base station.   It eventually decided it didn’t like the phone, so it went on to the network hard disk. Over here, I got off a shot which shows off [...]

Posted by: Aadisht on: January 22, 2009

So thanks to airfares going down again, I had enough money spare to buy the awesome Nikkor 50 mm f/1.8 lens, which Chandru and Nega have been praising and taking awesome photos with.

Meme too

Posted by: Aadisht on: January 7, 2008

Chandru tags me with a meme: All you have to do is select and upload one photo that you have clicked this year that is special to you. Could be anything…aesthetic, technical or personal. Also, put in a short note why it is special. Right. Photo(s) below the jump, then:

Why Hinduism Rocks

Posted by: Aadisht on: October 14, 2007

I had gone to the Sri Rangaswamy (or is it Sri Ranganathan?) temple at Srirangapatnam (Tipu Sultan’s capital near Mysore) with my family a couple of months ago. There was a a massive temple chariot outside. To give you an idea of how massive it is, look at how it towers over the Zen Estilo [...]
