Birds...free birds!

Limes,Lemons....

I never thought there was a big difference between Lime and Lemon ...but got to know it recently.The limes are what I use to see from my childhood and never thought there was something else I need to think of called lemons. When compared to lime Lemons (yellow) are big,very juicy and their zest is used in cooking.I tried painting a lemon,from a botany book ,it was all bright n fun.

My best shot ever....I just loved it

Sydney

Australia is more synonymous to Sydney from my view.The places( like Opera house, Harbour bridge, sky deck....) in Sydney are so popular and I got a chance to capture these beautiful works in a click.

Harbour bridge is said to be the largest( not the longest) iron bridge.It has a roadway, train tracks n pedestrian walkway too.It was really a nice experience , worth while watching our way while we pass through the bridge.

Opera house, the most popular of all didn't really amaze me much.People believe that it takes the shape of a lotus, which I contradict.The shows keep going around here through the year which keeps the place busy all the day and night, since its harbour view is so soothing and serene, one tends to relax and listen to some good music, have a happy evening. I watched a show, TOM TOM CREW and it was ROCKING!!!, Awesome, the team was a powerpack, I didn't realise the end of the show.It looked like the show was going on and on and on........

The Sky deck, hmm.. quiet impressive. There are many such places in and around that can catch ones attention like the blue mountains, taronga zoo, jenolan caves, last but not the least bondi beach.The trip was very unexpected and unplanned and that made me get involved into every aspect with lots of excitement and enjoy those moments.

Humming birds

Hi all, I am back with a new technique that is more exciting to me this time.

India ink technique, all these days i was wondering how these pictures get the fine touches and with this technique i could learn that more easily.This time I merged water colors with india ink technique.It was a nice experience learning one. John a fellow collegue of mine drew my attention on this, he is a fine artist too.he had very nice pictures that inspired me to learn from his works that I tried to present you all today.Isn't that lovely.I presented this to my mom on her birthday thats today.HAPPY BIRTHDAY amma!!!

Welcome 2010 , Good bye 2009

Golden deer

This picture looked so good, serene and appealing to me that I couldn't resist to try painting once again.

A golden deer plays an important role in Hinduism(the epic Ramayana) . While in exile in the forest, Rama's wife Sita sees a golden deer and asks Rama and Lakshmana to get it for her. The deer is actually a rakshasa called Maricha in disguise. Maricha takes this form to lure Rama and Lakshmana away from Sita so his nephew Ravana can kidnap her.

In Hindu mythology, the goddess Saraswati takes the form of a red deer called Rohit according to the Aitareya Upanishad. Saraswati is the goddess of learning so learned men use deer skin as clothing and mats to sit upon.

Deer hunting is the activity or sport of pursuing deer since ages, and its done in many countries. Please do not kill an animal for fun or pleasure.Life is precious.

Penguins

Penguins are living flightless birds found mostly in Antartica.I recently watched a documentary ( by NGC) on these birds I found it so touching, these birds faces difficulty from nature in every step of its life, day after day and still try to maintain its population so well. It was really appreciable where penguins follow one after the other guided by an emporer penguin. It really amazed me by the fact where the location they live is itself too difficult to imagine.The way the couple exchange they role in protecting their egg from natures play, they starve for months to safe-guard the embryo from different climatic conditions, and eat in turns after long gaps to survive.What a tough life.......really!!!

It was really a nice documentary "MARCH of the PENGUINS" thanks to the people who made it .

Pine-apple plant

I wonder how many of us have seen a pine- apple plant. God I was really lucky to see them in a local park in Brisbane, not that it is very rare but we dont exactly know the locations to find one.I was so thrilled and amazed may be if u are one in those who admire nature and love gardening I am sure you will enjoy these clicks.
