So little of it remains untainted Weaving waves of lengthy justification To be in shock and still breathing Wishes to ashes in minutes, even less Miscarried desires and frenzied excuses A macabre of self, futile to look within Irrelevant insights, a chase so dear Can we go on and on, with this fearful burden? Shatter…Read more Ritual cleansing
Before we pass out
So little time to imagine So much more to lament, As wishes transform to ashes And tried moments seem to take precedence; Over reasons that placed us there Crispy distractions affect my judgement Friendly voices take the pinch away Finding a way back home once evicted Cringe-worthy to most, inspirational at best A breath once…Read more Before we pass out
Aerochrome is Dead
It really amused how certain photographers used aerochrome films to breathe tragic life into their photos. Although getting your hands on Kodak aerochrome is nearly impossible, images can be treated to somewhat resemble the outcome of these infra-red films.

The Monsoon trails of Dharamsala

But when seen from the outside, the perspective of a passerby, it all seems so quaint and meaningless. This is our very own paradise, our castles dangling precariously…Read more Castles in the Sky
Own your misery
A double-edged blade; Not as fearsome as advertised, not as liberating as perceived. A distant echo of stories forgotten, A deafening siren of deeds undone, Short breaths to stay conscious; Long sighs to be bereaved, A curse for those awake, Calm for dreamers asleep.

The Souqs and Streets of Old Dubai
I am an Indian expatriate in Dubai. I know what you’re thinking! And you’re probably partially right. While my job and life keeps me on the newer side of this city, I am constantly drawn to places where it all started. These photographs were clicked during an afternoon stroll in old Dubai. Multi-national crowds, ancient…Read more The Souqs and Streets of Old Dubai
Thakali Chronicles – Nepal 2016
My lifelong dream to visit the best part of the Himalayas. Destroyed by daily routine and mind-numbing monotony, a few of us took a trip to Nepal. It wasn't about seeing sights and climbing mountains; we took our time to do nothing. Finally.
