Photo A Day Experiment (PADE) Day28 - Special

Not much thinking again, for this Special theme I am posting a pic from my collection that first came to my mind reading the Theme.

Inspired by levitating self-portraits of a Japanese photographer Natsumi Hayashi, I tried this picture with a friend at Rangdum, Zanskar Valley.


 This picture post is an Entry to PADE-2013, a month long Photo-blog event. To know more and participate, click here or here. Check themes here.

    @Juztamom, I feel his friend jumped and he clicked the photograph. Simple :)

    I also have a similar photograph with my daughter. :)

    Really? It doesn't look that simple to me. Won't there be more movement in the photograph? But if you also managed it then Wow!!


    I don't think I will be able to capture it like this. It looks like he is floating in air!!

    Awesomesauce capture. Is this you in the picture or your friend? Looks like you (or whoever is in the photo) is on moon and floating around!
    I have never captured anything like this either. This is one 'Special' shot!

    Thanks @Juztamom :)

    Well, it was relatively an easy shot, as @StirYourSouls told. The guy was jumping and I was taking multi-shots at high shutter speed (1/2000 sec) to avoid any motion blur. A good light and normal expression on face are the must needed things to make the photo realistic :)

    I expressed it better when my friend learnt to click it, but then it wasn't my shot :P

Riders of the Nation of a Billion - Dimensions and Horizons

Incidentally I wrote a post of my tranformation from just around the corner corporate junkie into a Rider (for sure, still gradually) few days ago. Now, here are the Indibloggers with a Contest for the Bikers of the Nation with Castrol guys .  Evolving Biker Code of the Nation  When you look at the scenario of Biking in a general sense, you would be attracted by the road-rowdies and rookies who ride to spread nuisance and are mostly acknowledged for their deeds by the newspaper. Hooligans may be the right word. But, once you get involved with the passion, you would be able to see how the passion of Biking, or rather Riding, is evolving in the country where 2-wheelers over-power 4-wheelers by scores of galactic height, but have never earned respect on highways just coz they are the smallest-speeding machine there! I would try to let you through the Indian Riders tale, so that you  be able to appreciate how the riders of the Country are working, though in a segregative...

What Travelling earns....People?

When travelling is your passion, you are bound to see a lot in your life, meet a thousand through your journey. I realised a day back only that most of us love to write what we did on our trip, what places we visited, how was the road, the hotel, the people. The People! Do we actually write about the people we met, or the men or women we spend a good time with? I did meet few people on rides, while flying or on train journey who left a deep impression on me. But, never actually took pain, if any, to jot down about them. Just them and there stories. So, in this post I will be talking about the People only, a few of the few meeting with whom I still cherish. If you RIDE a Bullet, you ought to know him There are many a people all over India and World, who love to ride. Few of them love to brag about there rides, most are just concerned about there rides. I belong to the earlier class, ride and blow your own trumpet! This person, about whom I’m writing this section, religiousl...
