So my sister recently got engaged and wanted some pictures of her ring. Now if you've been reading this blog for a while you know that I love light painting and so I decided to use light painting for that. How often do you actually get a gorgeous ring to…

Yup, no cheesy title today. Just the name of the bird in today's picture - black ibis. Birds have really cool names! I really like photographing birds but the bird population here has declined - that's probably because of the rapid rise in the number of new houses and buildings…

I ran into this juvenile Oriental Garden Lizard when I was shooting dragonflies. The dragonflies were really all over the place and it was really hot so that made it all the more difficult to get a good shot. Then I noticed this little fellow eating some tiny insects that…

My trip to Gangtok was just amazing. If you are ever in this part of the country I would highly recommend that you visit this beautiful hill station. Although I didn't really go around much as that wasn't the reason for my visit, God did provide some amazing picture opportunities…

I'm sure most of you have seen this quite a few times. Did you know that the pink/white/orange (or whatever colour) "flowers" of the Bougainvillea are not the actual flowers? Those are just coloured petals! The actual flowers are the tiny white ones in between the larger coloured petals. Isn't…

We have a lot of  bees and wasps here where I live and I quite enjoy them. Until I got into photography I never realised that there were so many varieties. They are beautiful if you look close enough. I don't really know what kind of a bee this is…
