Remembering 9/11

Each country has its own share of happiness and sorrow. This time on 9/11, i happened to be in New York on business and had a chance to capture this view from New Jersey side (just outside PATH station). The two vertical beams of light that were lit-up were at the location where the twin towers originally stood. An eerie reminder and even the night wept as it rained heavily... kind of posted this to share my thoughts and the sheer agony that mankind has to face due to mankind.

The Foggy Day

Thats a shot across the Hudson River of New York City. This was at 10am in the morning and there was thick fog over the city. You will not believe but by the time we were in the city, this fog just disappeared and it was a beautiful day. Amazing weather variations!

Life in my room

The green buds shooting out of the woods, aiming for the sky and trying to achieve it goals...grow grow & grow...btw can you make out what is the subject in focus here?

The Layers!

This is one the pics that i took, by mistake, as i was leaving my abode for 5 days in Ooty. Just turned around and clicked this one to have one last view of The Monarch (the place where i stayed). Instead, i turned a bit to right and captured this layered expanse of nature starting with an array of flowers on a green bed, followed by the royal gate, the green tea gardens, the ever so tall graceful trees, few heavenly abodes, more trees and finally the majestic blue Nilgiris to complete the background. what to choose??

She shall surely see the shimmer at sea

This is taken from the waterfront (Eagle Square) in Langkawi from where the yachts just venture out into the sea. There are more pics of Langkawi here. I was actually reminded of this pic on seeing Rahul's post. I could not mine-out a "no-man" (i.e. with no human being in picture) pic for the waterfront and hence was contented with this one. Any day i would love to go back here and enjoy the shimmers.
