 
.Childhood.

>> Gone are the days
When the school reopened in June,
And we settled in our new desks and benches.
Gone are the days
When we queued up in book depot,
And got our new books and notes.
Gone are the days
When we wanted two Sundays and no Mondays, yet
Managed to line up daily for the morning prayers.
Gone are the days
When we chased one another in the corridors in Intervals,
And returned to the classrooms drenched in sweat.
Gone are the days
When we had lunch in classrooms, corridors,
Playgrounds, under the trees and even in cycle sheds.
Gone are the days
When a single P.T. period in the week's Time Table, Was awaited more
eagerly than the monsoons.
Gone are the days
Of fights but no conspiracies,
Of Competitions but seldom jealousy.
Gone are the days
When we used to watch Live Cricket telecast,
In the opposite house in Intervals and Lunch breaks.
Gone are the days
When few rushed at 5:30 to
"Conquer" window seats in our School bus.
Gone are the days
Of Sports Day, and the annual School Day,
And the one-month long preparations for them.
Gone are the days
Of the stressful Quarterly, Half Yearly and Annual Exams,
And the most enjoyed holidays after them.
Gone are the days
We learnt, we enjoyed, we played, we won, we lost, We laughed, we cried,
we fought, we thought.
Gone are the days
With so much fun in them, so many friends,
So much experience, all this and more.
Gone are the days
But not the memories, which will be
Lingering in our hearts for ever and ever and
Ever and ever and Ever.

>>This is one of my "most time spent" capture. I spent more that 45 mins to get this shot. I had this concept in mind and wanted the wave to just wash half of the heart so as get this "?" feel. But those waves really tortured me. They were toooo fast. I say too too fast.
By the time i write this on sand, come back and focus my camera - everything was done, a wave used to already wash the entire thing. This went on for some 10 to 15 times. I was getting frustrated... then... a great idea stuck my damaged brain :) I started writing this backwards (right to left) so as to avoid the time to come back. Intelligent me, but this too dint work. Then i started holding my camera with my right hand and was writing this on sand backwards with my left hand :O Yes, its weird but thats what i did and i was (fairly) successful :D this again went for some 10-15 times before finally i got this one - water exactly into the middle of the heart : ) well its not exactly the middle but by this time my legs were horribly paining :D
Happy Weekend to all of you. I am off tomorrow ;) Going on a trip this weekend :)

We saw this beautiful light near Sri Mallikarjuna Swamy Temple in Srisailam. It was a delightful sight. It lasted just for 10 mins or so and we were lucky to capture this. Dint do any major processing on this, Just a crop, little contrast and saturation :)
Its been a long time since i have uploaded my last picture. I know i have to be little more active and i will be :) Sorry for not visiting all your wonderful photo-streams since some time, will take some time and follow up with all of you :)
