Life lessons through my camera - Part I

4 years back, It was my dream to view the things around me, viz., the budding roses, settled butterflies, flowing water, waving coconut trees, screaming buffaloes, naughty kids, wrinkles of grandma's.. with camera lenses. I really wondered on several clicks, how a single flash at a microsecond can tell beautiful stories, colorful memories and sometimes life lessons too!


Ofcourse, Photography doesn't mean capturing the beauty of nature or elsewhere, it also hopes for some themes, poetic lyrics, flowery phrases and more often, the life lessons too. For the past 1.5 yrs, photography is getting more familiar with me. Thank you, Gnans Sathish! The cocktail collections of yours is my source of inspiration. Here are some of the life lessons I focused through my camera, Panasonic Lumix.


'How much you earn doesn't decide how much you smile'



#'Roll ur eye balls, nature shows u, how beautiful the world around us is..' 
                           


# 'U r being photographed in my eyes, so say CHEEESEEE... :) ' 





#'When u look the world from window, life resembles greenish.. Open ur doors, only if, u can view its true colors..'





Hoping to bring something good at the next time.. :)

My First Fantasy Story - "Y this Kolaveri?!"



Disclaimer:
All characters in this novel are fictitious. Any resemblance to actual events or locales or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental. 


        It happened on a hot sunny noon, The coimbatore city was busy with its hallmarked heavy traffic and honey couples. A crow was new to the city. It wandered over the city like a pet animal in the zoo. It wondered about the Kongu Tamil slang, amazed on the shoppies and mocked at the people's reaction over mobiles. It settled down in the clock tower of RSPuram and its mouth started watering on the colorful menus at the flex boards of the restaurants. It kindled its appetite too. It tried to pierce through the glass doors of KFC, the multi-cuisine restaurant, which is today's youth's fun time paradise.


        It just rolled up its eyeball around at that place. Neither branded shirts nor Olay beauties considered our hero. It planned to steal food from KFC.  It awaited for the chance and make use of a customer's time over phone and sloshed the 'Hot Spicy Wings' away.As he was the star customer, all KFC people ran behind the crow. It settled down at its own place, The clock tower. Everyone started convincing the crow for the Hot Wings. It doesn't get convinced. At that time, an FM channel started screaming on the crow's mischief and it echoed all over the city. People started gathering at that busy square. A guy, who is as smart as a whip, buttered up for its elegance and asked to sing a song for the buzzing crowd. With overwhelming joy, it started blabbering a scansion of all its poorest vocabulary set. Its, "Y this Kolaveri Kolaveri diiiiiiii..".


       The song rocked!! It went through the nerves of the clans of TamilNadu and even across the globe. Within a week it has got 1544856 views and 21,900 likes on Youtube. The crow is now the HERO. Special dinner was arranged by our honorable Prime Minister, Chief guest for India-Today 'Mind rocks', IIM guest lecture... It became popular over-a-night.

And I have a doubt now, either Dhanush's voice is like a crow or the crow's voice is like Dhanush??

 Anyways, Enjoy the song, 

Soup song, Flop Song, 
Why this Kolaveri Kolaveri Kolaveri Di,
Why This Kolaveri Kolaveri Kolaveri Di
Rhythm Correct??!!
