'REMBRANT'

Rembrant is a famous Dutch painter who patronised and found the technique of light and shade in painting. Till his times it was more of just figurative paintings that was prevelant, but he changed his style to more realistic forms and shapes, exploring the depths of reality in the medium of painting.

'DIVINE'

It is a combination of the Real with the Surreal. But Guess what's What????

A hand which seems so real in this pic is of a statue and the Moon which seems so unreal is the real one.

'DANCE OF THE LIGHT AND SHADE'

A lonely isolated corridor seen through a iron gate. I was standing behind the iron bars and was wondering how eerie it looked from outside. This is a photograph of a corridor splitting into two at the corners and each alley has store rooms for arms and ammunition storage for the Great Kings who ruled the soil.

'STORAGE - '200BC to 500AD'

The photograph was taken inside the granaries of 'The Gingee Fort' in a place called Gingee in Tamilnadu. This place is 130 kms from Chennai and can be easily reached by road. You have two imposing forts on two different hills. It has been under various rules ranging from the Jains, Pallavas, Cholas,Pandya, Vijayanagar,Marathas, The Mughals and finally The Foreigners.

'LOOKING THROUGH'

I have never been able to write anything on ' Looking Through' because the Photograph explains everything.

This Photo was taken in yercaud when i was trekking in the Eastern Hills.

INTROSPECTION

“A man,who realizes the potential of his mind by means of introspection and contemplation, he who does not lack in self-confidence,he who has control over his mind will realize life's full potential. "
