Being homeless...

Homelessness is the condition and societal category of people who lack fixed housing, usually because they cannot afford a regular, safe, and adequate shelter. The term "homelessness" may also include people whose primary nighttime residence is in a homeless shelter, in an institution that provides a temporary residence for individuals intended to be institutionalized, or in a public or private place not designed for use as a regular sleeping accommodation for human beings. A small number of people choose to be homeless. An estimated 100 million people worldwide are homeless.

Been working on a project for the homeless as a part of the curriculum.
The emotional content involved with the project is really strong.

Burn within...

Have you ever felt a desire burn you from within?
The wanting to do a certain thing before its too late..

Want to shoot the fall before its too late.
Everyday I have been watching a particular tree since the past few days...
and wonder if tomorrow will be the right time to shoot it..
Perhaps waiting for it to turn colors completely.

Doing things you love...

Don't you miss the things you loved doing some time?
What is stopping you from doing it today ?

Don't you remember being happy in what you did?
What is making you sad today ?

Why let the circumstances come in your way of happiness?
Why not let it just take care of the sadness?

Remembering the portrait days.
will be back so shooting portraits soon.

Mulakaat...

Everyday you met someone new...

Some impress...
Some fail to do so...
Some have an everlasting impression on the heart...
Some are just worthy of a glance..
Some not even that.

It does not matter where u go together..
Or what you spoke about..

What really mattered was
if both were happy together,
if both enjoyed their time together.

I stood there...

I stood there...
Till the end of time..
Till the stars did not shine..

I felt each water droplet touch me..
i felt it just could not be ...
The force touching my soul..
the waters creeping through the hole..

I stood there...
wishing for you to be back..
wondering what it was that i lack..

An addiction...

It always starts from a small step..
A small process...
One single puff...
One short gulp..

How many addictions have you accumulated over the past year?

A Different Eye...

Guess it's important as a photographer to look at things through a different eye at times..
Many a times one does not realize the beauty of things if not seen through a non-conventional channel.
