Sunsets: Smoke Screen
http://delsonclicks1.blogspot.com/2009/01/smoke-screen.html
A smoke screen envelops the setting sun as man pumps in the toxins hidden inside mother earth into the open atmosphere. Earth had hidden many polluting resources deep inside her so that it would not be accesible to the careless humans that we are. But the ever greedy mankind just dug deep into mother earth and is now haphazardly using these without any concern about its effects. Posted by delson roche. Liked the idea behind the 4th one but 2nd one is the best i feel. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Sunsets: November 2007
http://delsonclicks1.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Generally sunsets have very warm colour tones to them, hence this time I wanted to give it a cool, calmly feeling. I clicked three photographs of this scene, with three different WB settings, fluorescent 1 and fluorescent and Cloudy. Cloudy settings gives a saturated warm tone, while the fluorescent settings give the photograph a blue hue, which gives the appearance of a cool sunset here. Posted by delson roche.

http://delsonclicks2.blogspot.com/2009/03/bath-how-romans-bathed-and-other.html
Tuesday, March 17, 2009. Bath - How the Romans bathed and other Adventures. Ashwin and I play a game called 'Imagine' where we pose hypothetical scenarios to each other and try to imagine and share our imagination that can run wild and amok. We were on train to Bath from Reading and 45 minutes into the journey Ashwin asks me, "Imagine what would happen if everything around you turned back to 18th century, and just this coach is from the modern age.". The Romans assumed that the afon was a long river and ...

Lush Green: Cycling around the Isle of Wight
http://delsonclicks2.blogspot.com/2009/03/cycling-around-isle-of-wight.html
Monday, March 23, 2009. Cycling around the Isle of Wight. After many wonderful trips to various places around England, Ashwin and me felt that it was time we did something different. Something that we could remember even if we suffered from Amnesia later on in life. I sat one whole night pouring over my guide book and finally after hours of research suggested something radical- A cycling trip around the cliffs of Isle of Wight. And here he is Mooing, a special tribute to a special one. As we were waiting...

Lush Green: December 2006
http://delsonclicks2.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 19, 2006. I was very surprised at the result of this Photograph. The Sunrays provided an effect, which was similar to the one that you can get, by using Lense Flare in Photoshop. These halos occur only when the camera lense is places at an angle to the light rays. Posted by delson roche. This was a small water fall, but the sunlight directly fell on it, giving this photograph its awsome glow. Posted by delson roche. Sunday, December 17, 2006. Posted by delson roche.
