meeting the horizon....butterfly effect part IV

By

Pamban Bridge. A man made architectural marvel .I took this snap sitting on the doorsteps of the compartment holding my Canon Rebel XT in one hand and other on the door. A thrilling experience

so did I board the bus? nope this time...its the train..of course it was the one I boarded on March 21st 2008 , on my way back to Chennai from Rameswaram There was a little tussle with the TTR .I had forgotten my PAN card which was the primary identity for the online passenger tickets . I was having an identity card which was useless and the argument ended futile and in the end i paid a penalty of 1200 INR.

nevertheless this train got me an identity as an amateur photographer... among the 11 winners of the Best Vacation Photos co-sponsored by Cleartrip and ZOOMIN ..the above picture you see was short listed for the final 11 from thousands of pics posted on the portal...it was a surprise ..which came thru mail...i was little thrilled...a first step of an amateur..on his wonderful journey of 'meeting the horizon'...

so what do I call this day..with lot of events..

I shot a perfect sunrise...from the 6 th floor..and posted the picture..@ 7 am with title 'open -up open-up'... wonderful lyrics from AGUILAR..(nescafe song -open up,open up) . Label 'photography'

I posted 'how often u miss the bus '....this morning..@ 11 am.label travel..

the sunset on the above picture , a perfect end to a sunrise...

a new day..to end in a good note.....



butterfly effect continues......

My Formula is Cab

By
12.30 A.M., Parking Lot, Karapakkam Service Lane I woke up by a strong wind gushing thru my window and the fluttering sound of the trip sheets. I had just made a trip to perambur from karappakkam. I cud see a blurred image of the trip supervisor nearing my car. I wonder is it just fate or a passion for driving, for if it was passion I would have become Schumacher…[believe me I am not a fan or a follower of Schumacher. I hardly get time to even have a normal diet…just heard this name when one of the employee uttered this name. Out of curiosity, I was asking him who he was and what was special about him…] Then I told to myself , all the cab drivers are in a way F1 drivers...the Schumachers and Alonsos who drive their way to the chequered flag 18 times once in a year and during each race have pit stops compared to our drivers who also get lot of pits stops, rather all along the journey in the roads of C...
