...and we lost our hands for nothing!

A lot of It companies don't allow you to take digital media like USB drives, CDs, outside computers, mobile phone with a camera in the office to prevent data theft. If you think it is a new practice, consider the steps taken by Shahjehan when he made the Taj Mahal. It is said, whether true or false that he cut off the hands of all the workers who made the Taj Mahal so they won't be able to make something like Taj Mahal again.

Little did he knew that his own grandson will make a replica of the Taj Mahal in less than 50 years.

The cold marble floor feels nice

Two photographer not just meant pictures of me; it also meant a lot more photographs. Since my brother was there, Manu was busy with him so I got more time to take pictures. Every time I think about making a gallery of pictures from the trip, I am discouraged by the sheer number of pictures I took.

The work is getting hectic which makes the gallery seem a little more out of reach. Let's see when I am able to upload it.

An artist at Ellora Caves

I saw him sketching and I asked if it's okay to take his picture and he agreed. After taking some shots I showed them to him and asked if he would like me to send him the picture. "No" he said. The No changed to a Yes when I told him that I am not a commercial photographer who is expecting money in return of the pictures.
