This post is the second in the edition of “N photos clicked within Nx100 meters of my locality. I am putting a link of my previous post of this series at last of this sentence so that you can get a context about the post.
Also, here’s quick information about the post, in this series I post photos clicked in my locality within a radius of a kilometre to enhance my photography skill and show my readers that for being a photographer one does not need a DSLR or an extravagant trip to some exotic destination. With each photo, I will describe the circumstance under which it was clicked or any back story (if any) is related to it.
Photos shot on: Samsung On7 prime, Edited in Adobe Lightroom CC.
1. International Yoga Day
This is from beyond 500 meters but within 2Kilometres. Featuring Myself in my picture, clicked by my brother on the occasion of International Yoga day 2019 celebrated on 21st June 2019. The location is Lodhi Garden, Delhi. It was totally unplanned, I and my brother were loitering around when I observed the Yoga Ground in Lodhi Garden and thought of doing this. Luckily the clouds were also active and present that day.
2. Delhi Drenched
On the 5th of July, Delhi witnessed its first rain of the Monsoon and watching the Auto Rickshaw in rain I took a trip to nostalgia. Auto rides in the rainy season are best with water splashing from both sides. Those who want to enjoy the rain sit on the aisle side whereas the one who wants to refrain will sit in the middle. A montage of flashback passed through my brain like the auto rides to cinema halls in the rainy season.
3. This is beyond 500 metres of my house but I wanted to share my take on this snap
According to me, this shot took 98 years to be achieved. First, it all started with Edwin Lutyens designing these great monuments in 1921. Then some random guy took birth in 1970 in the Netherlands and after 49 years (looks at his legs though) in 2019 he decided to visit Rashtrapati Bhavan. Meanwhile, in 1994 another set of parents gave birth to me in 1994 to click this shot in 2019. I was so thrilled to achieve this shot when as I finally went to Rashtrapati Bhavan after procrastinating it for a long time. I still wonder what if I haven’t gone out of the house on that day. The foreigner would have visited and left without being in my shot.
- That’s a basket
I click everywhere on my way to work, on my way to a basketball court and of planes on their way to Delhi Airport. I like clicking planes I don’t know why.
5. Mango Delight
The summer season brings Mangoes. This picture has been curated by me at my house. It is written Mango in Devnagari Script. All these mangoes went down in my tummy.
