Karma and Kumbh
The month of March has been frenetic and feverish – and that is an understatement. Other than the consulting assignment, which I have been working on, it has also been a sort of geeky month. My website had some glitches on the server, then my iPhone acted up and finally, my laptop decided it was…

C’est la vie
Many of you have written to me wondering where I am (or was) across the last month or thereabouts; to most I have replied, but for those who wrote in the past few days. I’ve been out for four weeks and more – much of it on work, but some for photography. I’d headed to Jaipur,…

On logos, on perfection
This is my first post of 2013. I’ve had writers block – quite literally so. Across the last few weeks I have been meaning to write, but even the opening line has been difficult. So I said to myself: “Why not just say it as it is?” Isn’t it so strange that I don’t know what to write, yet…

2013
Thousands of photographs. Hundreds of miles. Tens of days. All on the road. For photography. For passion. For a dream. And what a beautiful journey it has been. A journey within. Each photograph of mine, good and bad, allowed me to reflect. On why I created that particular photograph. On what I felt when I…

On photography by Steve Jobs
Since Sunday I have wanted to photograph – you know that insane desire to step out and create something. Unfortunately with the imminent change in season here in Delhi, the weather, and the light, is tending to be unpredictable. I did manage to today – walked for an hour-and-a-half in the sun completely drenched in…

Again. And again. And again.
I write about photography, and I write about how it has influenced my life. But you could just about substitute anyone or anything that you love for “photography” and whatever I write will still be equally true. And you and I both know that often I don’t write about photography at all. I just use…

I believe in magic
I am out traveling, but even then I wanted to write a short blog (yes, different from my oh-so-long ones). As I see more places, more people, more things, I see how beautiful this world truly is. And I believe in much more today than I did yesterday. I believe in dreams. I believe in soulmates.…

Where time has no meaning
I usually don’t photograph with anyone else – I go alone because then I am free to wander wherever I want, explore those nooks and crannies that I see. I can take my own time to stop, pause, stare. The act of photography is meditative for me, most times there are no thoughts in my…

Invictus
I don’t think I’ll write long this time. But I don’t know. Each time I start to write, some more thoughts come to mind and then one thing leads to another, one seemingly unrelated thought connects to yet another. Just a few days back I was editing some photographs of doors and windows that I’d…
