The hand is much better! But the blog break continues.


Meanwhile, I am sharing some heavenly images of some time spent at Lakshadweep sometime in March 2005.



















Blue ain't so bad, is it?

lakshadweep??? *envious* :)

blue, always reminds me of the clear vast expanse of the sky. and the ocean on a bright sunny morning. both these, i find, are very caling, simply because of their vastness.

but its strange, u know shankari, when u look up the word 'blue' in a dictionary of how many connotations it has as an adjective. among other things, it also describes someone/thing that is morally rigorous and strict, did u know that?!?

so nice to hear about ur hand. take care.

breathe in -1-2-3-4-5- breathe out

Sujit,

It was a short official trip at a time when I was terribly overwrought and just the one and a half days there helped in giving me some perspective, some solitude and calm.

Ya, the vastness AND the blueness helped me look outside of my self. Wish I could just pop back there every once in a while! *wistful*
(blue..(m)ing me!)


Prashant,

I *love* royal blue ink! I think ink should be blue and roses should be red. wotsay? But then there are times when I like purple ink, red ink, black ink n so on ... ;)
Thanks for coming by here. :)

Ende,

Just being in that blueness edged by the white soft sands is enough to make one breathe easy. Just like that!

Given that you guys are such terrific photographers, one wonders if one should have posted these pictures here. But then these pics say it far better than any words could...
