Fav Picture

December 26, 2007

Mridula assigns what is called a meme, which I wonder if is just a new name for tags. Whatever be it, it goes like this:

“Here is the new meme. It is simple, easy and gives no room for whining one usually associates with a meme. All you have to do is select and upload one photo that you have clicked this year that is special to you. Could be anything…aesthetic, technical or personal. Also, put in a short note why it is special.”

There was some delay on getting on with this, blame it on my computer which wasn’t working for past 3 days.

And now, allow me to complain, like a man must. How good is to ask mother to pick her favourite child? Well, a bit of whining had to happen before I get down to business. Here is the image.

Taken at Thadiyandamol in May 2007. It is an image I have been working on for full three years before I managed to get it just the way I want. That does all the explanation to favourite it.

The next duty is to pass it on, and that’s where I get a little troubled. But then, surely you, who is reading it, would want to have a look back at all the pix you made through the year? And while you are at it, surely you would want to post it on your blog?

Breathtaking.

Haven’t seen anything like this before. This has to be one of the best photos ever!

Please put a copyright mark on the image – or have you already done so?

I agree with Shruthi. It renders me absolute speechless.

I’ll definitely take it from here. Right now traveling, will do it when I am back to my normal routine.

Beautiful Indeed! I liked even more the pic on your original post with clouds coming out of the hills. It almost feels like the earth is reaching up to heavens.

*** Madhuri - January 2, 2008, 9:28 am ***

Apologies. I meant this comment for your post Fav Pic and posted it here by mistake.

*** indicaspecies - January 3, 2008, 6:50 pm ***

Your other pictures of Thadi are as admirable Arun. For that matter, I can pick at least a few dozens of your pictures as my favourites. :)

*** Shantanu - January 5, 2008, 5:27 pm ***

That’s a justified whine, given how many great pics I have seen you post in this year. :-)

BTW, what do you mean by ‘working on this image for three years’? Not with photo-shop I hope?

*** Arun - January 7, 2008, 7:37 am ***

No Shantanu, three years, 4-5 trips, waiting for the right weather :)

Thank you Shruthi, cuckoo, madhuri, indicaspecies :)
