The road ahead...


This is a picture of the Farmington Canal Heritage Trail in Connecticut.

Come to think of it, I've spent the last two months travelling and constantly being on the road. My journeys have taken me from the hills of Palani and Kodaikanal to the picturesque valleys of Connecticut, the glitzy streets of New York, the Benjamin Franklin parkway where Rocky ran :)) and the boulevards of D.C. I must admit that I've not travelled this long and this far, in so short a time.

So, this picture in essence serves to remind me of my journeys to new and distant lands; journeys to newer stages in life, of mine and those connected to me. A journey that I wish never ends...
By the river at dusk...


This is the Farmington River at dusk. The waters were icy cold, so I didn't venture too close. But the closer you get, you realise that there's a calming gentle melody that every flowing river lends, to an eager ear.
Sunset above Tehran


While flying over the skies of Teheran, at 37,000 feet, I saw the colours that the setting sun was lending to the night landscape. I just had to take this picture.
Berry Berry Good...



These are wild berries that were growing in the yard. They looked good and I took quite a few pictures.

But after my friend, a legendary berry specialist of wide repute asked: "you didn't taste them??"...I now wish I had. Maybe I should have, right? :-P
