Unveil the Other Side

Interesting are the natural mirrors we find around. A pond or a lake is a best example for one such natural mirror. They reflect and at the same time enhance the natural beauty.

Its time for Bangalore Flower-show . With less than a week for the Republic Day celebrations, Botanical Garden - Lal Bagh, Bangalore's pride is brimming with bright colors and lovely flowers. The uniqueness and the creativity is mainly what that gets me here, show after show. Eiffel tower made of a mix of Deep-Red and pearl white roses is a visual treat.

Late in the afternoon after a quick cup of coffee, I jumped into my favorite pair of salwar kameez , favorite because it helps me bend, stretch and capture pictures the way I need them to be. It was the last day of the show and I had expected a huge crowd , long queues. On reaching the venue I noticed that the crowd was not bad though. It was a warm evening and a day before new years eve.

Here is another comic strip coming your way. Please bear with this one till I find something really interesting to write about.

The Christmas and New year celebrations at office lasted for about 2 weeks ranging from activities like volleyball, Box cricket to fun stalls and a fancy dress competition. The most hilarious fancy dress group themed up with " Back to School" . As the name denotes in itself we had age old jokes put forth by the students and the principal. I could not resist but put them on a comic strip . Here are the comic strips. Hope the new year fills in more smiles in your lives and make you live younger with each passing year.
