Starfish & Spider web
We live on the circumference of a hollow circle. We draw the circumference, like spiders, out of ourselves: it is all criticism of criticism.
Heart Bokeh
Happy Valentine’s Day! This time instead of plain color bokeh, I decided to do something creative. I wanted to get some heart shaped bokeh, so I created my own heart bokeh with a black paperboard (DIY – Create your own Bokeh tutorial). What I really didn’t pay attention to was I forgot to set my camera to the lowest aperture value. I tried and tried and still I ended up clicking pictures like the one above and below.
Before I call it a day, I corrected my mistake and tired once more, below is the result. Not a perfect heart shape, but somewhat close.
Note: I tried this with my Nikon D60 18-55mm lens. I realized later that I need an aperture lens (which I ignored completely in the DIY tutorial. Time to get one, I guess! ;))
Purple flower
Red roses or anything red is everyone’s favorite, but there’s something interesting about purple color flowers. I always loved red roses, they were my most favorite, it symbolizes love, respect and passion. But when I first saw purple orchids, I fell in love with its innocence and delicate beauty. The picture below is not orchid flower though. I don’t know what its called, but I like them in my garden.
A Closer look
A Beautiful Day
What a beautiful day!
The birds are singing,
The breeze is humming,
The sky is shining!
What a beautiful day!
The trees are green,
The flowers seen,
The critters keen!
What a beautiful day!
My heart is leaping
From love worth keeping!
With joy it’s seeping!
What a beautiful day!
My soul is song!
There is no wrong!
And I feel young!
What a beautiful day!

Red Rose
A rose speaks of love silently,
in a language known only to the heart
