Power of Photograhy

Photography is source of wonderful memories....just  Visual memories!!! - This was how the photos were considered when it meant to spend Rs.100 for 36 film roll to capture a birthdays, visit to Delhi/Agra or any new places. It did create long lasting memories. My mother has one full suitcase of such memories (i.e) photographs to cherish.

The signature of photography has been evolving. Lot of photography websites, photo editors, advanced technologies & ease of access to these changing technologies. Photography is not just memories anymore...It is recreates and let us re-live the moments...It holds the "everything" of the moment.
There are lot of wedding photographs taken by Ashwin th-clicker which creates a kind of longing in me. I have always wished I could have got married 3-4 years later(than I did) when he really started checking his pulse on photography.

This blog is all about thanking our friend Rajagopal Siva for capturing great moments of Abhinav's Birthday. Raj has not just captured moments to re-live on  but also kind of  rejuvenated my relationship with Abhinav.

I was presumption that Abhinav is growing up and is no more has cuddling baby in him to be preserved in a pristine manner. He proved me wrong.
This is the photo of Abhinav took in iPhone 5 by me when I believed that Abhinav is not the matured young man anymore. I assumed he has grown up into fuzzy little kid with lot of anxieties due to lack of "good" parenting skills. And obvious enough, I took all the guilt of pacing his life into this plight and attributing it to my new work and lessened attention towards him.

But  Raj's photo(all of the below) changed my perspective, it gave  "my assumed feeling of changing Abhinav" (resulting in the previous blog let) a big blow. He still has in him the cuteness in him;

Happy kid that I always wanted him to be;

Happy Kid

Patient Observer and Delightful Pal

Focused Doer (achiever ;0)

Raj captured him in diminutive dimensions which I failed to see. Thanks Raj for capturing Abhinav in your own way and all the other lovely photos.


In precise, It is not the Camera or the technology that adds the truth to the object. It is the person behind the camera, their passion for photography and definitely their love for life and his subjects.

Photography is definitely a ART; the way of expression as any other form of art influencing, dominating, disturbing, improvising the emotional, physical and social aspects of not just the creator but also the perceiver , however amateur or competent thee be.


THANKS RAJ!! LONG LIVE YOUR PASSION - to create/re-create magic into life with the nice  "freezes"
