Day 29: My Perspective...

I don't know if this qualifies for the theme of the July Photo A Day Challenge, day 29 - perspective - but this is the best shot I have! This is a small rivulet near V's grandfather's house in Kerala. Whenever I look at this picture, it instantly feels as if I have my feet dipped in this cold refreshing water...

Day 22: Grey It Is!

I cannot associate grey with being depressed. It's a smart colour when it comes to garments. And it is even more lovelier when it comes to monsoon :) Since I've already posted quite a few pictures of monsoon clouds, I took time to pick this one out. This was taken at Calicut Beach in Kerala... I personally think the rocks make this picture very beautiful...

This is for July Photo A Day Challenge. The theme for Day 22 was Grey.

Day 17: What Inspires Me?

The theme for today's July Photo A Day Challenge is Inspirational. There are so many things I can list. But then, I was stuck on travelling. I find it inspirational and healing, in a way. I feel better if I travel often, though my often is not very often! I feel guilty of not travelling when I look at pictures. There's so much to see! But at the end, travelling inspires me to do lots of things - to step out and see the world, to be humbled by the people I meet, to try and know other cultures, to dream and to have plans of completing those dreams... And so much more!

This was shot in Kerala, on my trip there in June. It's a picture I love since it is very typical of Kerala too :)

Photography Challenge Begins!

Something I had read on Facebook last month stuck with me - take pictures everyday, of anything that amuses you. Since my husband had upgraded me to a smart phone, I thought I probably should follow it. So began my tryst with taking pictures from my phone everyday and uploading them on Instagram and Facebook. Plus I read about it when I was in Kerala, what better place to start! Though not daily, I did click a lot of pictures there.

My friend suggested that I should take up a photo challenge and I thought, why not! So here I am, starting the challenge from today. I picked it up from Fat Mum Slim for the July Photo a Day Challenge, via a blogger friend. So here it is! The topic for today is Red, White or Blue.

A fruit I got introduced to in Kerala. Known as Jambakka or Chambakka in Malayalam, the red ones taste sour while the white ones are sweeter.
