From the ones that I have taken these are my favorites, where I remember I had gone there to momentarily escape from photography, and still I happen to click. I love the subject and I intend to study it as much as I can. Being a student I do not wish to miss a chance. So every tour I make or a vacation I take, they all end up as a project. Sometimes I actually loose my nerve. I do not know how to cope with it.
It starts with a slight frustration whenever I look at these images, because I could never name them. Then I happen to stare into these images and it really feels good. Rest of the time when I am on a project there are continuous calculations going on in my mind - composition, technicalities, etc. But in the case of these shots I remember staring into oblivion, only (milliseconds later) to be awakened by the sound of the shutter. Lost!
I always find it tough to place these images with the rest of my work because it looks as if I am the only audience allowed (and I do more of travel and historic architecture). My friends' only comment I get for these are, "Looks great" which is usually followed by "but....". Because I am not clear in these pictures. These stir some thoughts in me; maybe not in them.
But then again maybe this is what people call a personal work. Like how people go private with their diary, painting, or even blogging, these are pages of my diary. Glad to show you, but frankly I don't know how to read it out to you. And even if I could read it out, it wont be private then.
