Yet another sky pic

Do we ever get tired of taking pics of the sky ??? I dont think so ..

I hope!!

This photo can be considered as some sort of a "time capsule". I'll be revisiting this post in about 4 months just to do some thinking.

Strokes of brilliance

"I think the key word is awe. That sense of awe keeps drawing me back to the sky. This is, for me, a religious experience. Dave Ross took a wonderful quote from Joseph Campbell, which he used to introduce "Shadows of the Night":

'The purpose of a ritual or body of myth is to awaken in the individual a sense of awe and participation in the inscrutable mystery of being'

But that is what the sky does for me on some deep, un-plumbable level."

p.s the above text was borrowed from the blog of a guy who used to work in a planetarium, and was slightly edited to suit what i had in mind.

Fear of the dark

"Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a constant fear that somethings

Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's
always there "

The god of small things

A.M.D.G

A.M.D.G stands for Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam which is Latin for "For the greater glory of god". It was something which my late vice principal in school Fr. Pulickal used to encourage us to write on our exam papers. Jiyo got placed in satyam today :)

Savage Garden. Literally!!

When i was smaller , i used to imagine i was the lone ranger ; And beyond this gate was my world of adventures.It was everything my mind wanted it to be , A trecherous jungle , an Industrial wasteland .. practically anything !! I miss being small , miss those days of pure innocent fun when even a small unruly plot like this used to hold a world of excitement in itself !!

But it rained ....

Statutory warning: Looking directly at the sun is injurious to the eye.
Here the cam is not aimed at the sun. What your seeing is actually the sun reflected on a nearby temple's pond. ;)
