Eclipsography..









Hi Readers,

I dont knw what attracts the sky gazers, astrophysicyst and astronomers more , the view of ever dominant sun fighting to continue shedding light on earth fighting with Moon not to hinder its light OR is it mere lust to find something more exciting than usually seen… To me this 15th JAN 10 was just another day to witness the beauty of the world.Here are some of the Captures of a rare event for my channel one followers who would have otherwise just missed this scene at various parts of the world OR for being inside the office sitting before this 15′inch ugly looking machine. The dark hue on eclipse time is easily visible as moon partially hide sun rays pouring on earth !

World day to combat desertification & drought..

The Change is Evident , Lets decide the direction !



A Day in the Life of a Millennial..



Dawn of another Day !
Its a beautiful morning around 6 when pigeons in my terrace around my room start to flock at my salt lake rented accomodation and sun at its magnificence starts to rise high pushing me to come warm out of my balnket.The winter is knocking. I pull in my shorts and Joggers with my “Udaan theme music”–’Subah Ki kirnon ko roke woh salakhein hai kahan ‘. By this time my uncle engineer(I call this way to my landlord) starts to feed pigeons.I am out in serene and cold awefully loving winter morning for my mornign jog. Believe me, this is the time which pushes me hard to sleep early , Its so satisfying to know you have a beauitful mornign ahead. At one of my recent morning outings I encountered a improved yet sadistic look of life.I stamped into a Dog’s shit first and then crossed the mangnificent desgin made in red (You can guess what it was, a big splash of fresh Pan/gutkha Spit.)(This is sadistic) on clean black roads of saltlake(This is improved).The only diffrence is that at my home village I used to stamp accidentally into cow dung and intentionally into cow dung cakes made my millions village ladies out of childhood mischievies. I am a grown up now and so is this saltlake society considered high in living standards. I am just wondering whether we have actually grown up with spit of pans and dog’s shit at the midest of clean roads. Almost everyday , life fights numerous battles with career options , CWG and 2G spectrum corruption , political apathy for common man rather a General Category Millenial like me. Anyhow its time now when I will have my morning sip of tea with my TOI in hand at a nearby Tea joint.Now heading fast for the life I never wanted to live the way, but still loving it , for I am contributing atleast to building a better world in my quest to office.At 0820 I board my office bus,where in sitting beside a lady associate in a empty seat might be considered violation of her personal space , for am still helpless as the bus seats are too small for athletic build 5′5 /60 person like me.Am at the moment in my new office recently commenced under tag GTP.Got mails , discussions, training and deliveries today.Lunch breaks,tea breaks today and then back home at 7 with facebook in my laptop at my terrace room followerd by half cooked dinner tiffin and some before sleep daily chores I take to bed for another beautiful morning and Hope of a better tomorrow, Its a Never ending saga !

Sense is No more Common !

This morning I encountered a strange rush on the road at a typical circular iland around main road leading to a chief business hub of kolkata . “Road Closed for Repairs” said the billboard in big bold red letters.Its okay the Road is closed for repairs, not the Traffic signal. On a typical day this road hardly encounters jams for the traffic movement is smooth, and the daily commuters much to their habit of ignoring red signals and for want of any policing seemed to be ignoring the same today as well resulting in a visible ZERO SPEED Traffic JAM in a circular fashion aroung the circular iland threading four plus direction roads.All the Red signals were broken at both the ends of roads and thus the mesh of cars, lorries and buses around.
~I tried to make one of the driver to stop for one minutes and follow the traffic signal, but to my surpirse what I found is that the Sense is NO more Common~
