Journey to the Big Apple - Only If I could Touch Music…

This particular pic reminds me why I took photography as a hobby…

Photography and writing both as a hobby serves a singular purpose for me … To record what I think …

I always wanted to capture what I think with the photos I click … I never worked hard to take a technically good pic, which I accept is a big flaw in me … but I feel I can always alter light, sharpness and contrast in editing but to capture the thought after seeing a subject is more important …

Talking about this pic … I was on a Trip to New York … I have taken many pics of New York but this one is something I like more … and ironically this pic has nothing to do with New York … it was just a wind chime outside the window of my friend’s house and its shadow appeared on the window blinds …

That shadow for me was the physical existence of music … and addition to this thought was the idea of someone trying to touch the shadow just to satisfy his desire to touch something so soothing and powerful as music …

I feel that the Caption could have been better but I already delayed this pic by 4 days to think for a better caption but couldn't …

Meeting Myself

Re-adopting photograph publishing activity after a break of 5 months …

So After 5 months of break when thought of posting something, the best possible theme which popped out of my head was re-introducing myself.

I am Bhavik Sharma and I am practicing photography as a hobby since Feb 2012. This gap of 4-5 months gave me a opportunity to retrospect and I realized how much I have learned.

Talking about the pic … It is a self-photo-shoot … Yes it is me in the pic … I tried convincing my mom to just click while I pose but she brutally refused as I tend to scold her a lot when she tries the job of my assistant in any photography project …

So I adjusted the camera myself by making my position on the wall (The wall is filled with ball pen marks now :D ) … But finally I was proud of the result and it feels great to do everything by myself :)

Talking about the line written … I am not a big supporter of writing things in a picture … but wanted to write something with the expressions … The line … which is original by the way means … “I longed to meet myself for the complete lifetime … couldn’t understand that all I had to do is close my eyes”
