It's a great occasion to give a fresh breath of air to my almost dead blog.

Its 4.40 am Saturday, 1st of Jan 2011.. currently @ Arun's placce, in neighborhood of UB city, Bangalore (yes, the liquor baron, Vijay Mallya).. the plan was to leave by 5 to Bandipur national park which is nearly 225 kms from Bangalore.. still awaiting or 2 more guys to reach this place..

the current plan is to reach Bandipur by 2 pm today(hopefully), rest at the cottage @ green park resort.. take rest for the day and go for the jungle safari tomorrow.. hoping to have tomorrows coffee with the jungle king..

Will keep posted you with the proceedings..

Cheers,
Ibu

Backyard Shots- II (Panasonic Lumix - DS4)

Hey All,

Hope everybody's doing great @ blogsvilla. Bought a new digicam last week, the Panasonic Lumix DS4. I had googled a lot to find a review for this particular cam, but only in vain. I will be posting my detailed review in my next posting. Meanwhile have a look at some of the pics taken from my cam.

Please please do drop in your valuable comments about the pictures. Just want to know about the quality of pics and let me know factors to judge the cam so that I can post my review on those parameters.

Cheers,

Ibu

Majestic Leh

It's not me, but one of my best friend Sumit went on this once in a lifetime journey. I wish I could be there on this joyride.. Just couldn't stop myself from posting these pictures.. The mountains, the plains, the valleys, the snow everythings so fantastic.. I made a promise with myself that I will be there very soon..

Meanwhile enjoy some of the pictures..













Cheers,

It is at the edge of a petal that love waits.
~ William Carlos Williams

The violets in the mountains have broken the rocks.

~Tennessee Williams

A flower's fragrance declares to all the world that it is fertile,
available, and desirable, its sex organs oozing with nectar.
Its smell reminds us in vestigial ways of fertility, vigor, life-force,
all the optimism, expectancy, and passionate bloom of youth.
We inhale its ardent aroma and, no matter what our ages,
we feel young and nubile in a world aflame with desire.
~ Diane Ackerman, A Natural History of the Senses, 1990, p. 13
