Day 255 : The Eye

Oh no! I seem to be clicking pics that come in line with psychological thrillers! But this eye is of my little monster, Genie. Completely black with a white heart...that's what Genie is. Yes, he has white fur over where his heart is. Here is the picture of the day:
 

Day 254 : The Birds

I was going towards the Panjagutta circle of Hyderabad, when I saw hundreds of Pigeons sitting on electric wires as if straight out from Alfred Hitchcock's 'The Birds'! They look intimidating though they were sitting innocently on the wires. I have never seen birds in such large groups, but it was amazing to just feel the power of nature. Here is the picture of the day:

Day 253 : Fence and the Flower

There is something very philosophical about the flowers that grow over fences...as if these tender plants are trying to break barriers and nothing can stop someone from achieving what they want. Here is the picture of the day:

Day 252 : Mini Sand Dunes

With the construction of massive buildings in Hyderabad, one can see small sand cones on either side of the road. The rain and winds have created interesting structures of these mini sand dunes, as if mini grand canyons have formed for a small period of time. Here is the picture of the day:

Day 251 : Fresh Bananas

It is a joy to see fresh vegetables cut just out from farms and sold in the market. To see fresh vegetables on a rainy day is the favorite part of shopping for me. I saw these bananas tied to a cart, just ripe and ready for sale. Here is the picture of the day:

Day 250 : Drenched

Hi,

Please do not mind irregular posts of my blog, as Internet is giving me a hard time here in India. Sometimes, I am in a place, where I do not have access to internet or due to power outage, I have no access at all. I hope you will understand.

The weather in Hyderabad is very tricky. The other day, my Papa and I went out, and in one place, there was not even a drop of rain and in another place, he was drenched completely in one second. Here is the picture of the day:

Day 246 : Empty Street

As I took Genie, my pet dog, for a walk...I saw this empty street, beautifully lit with street lamps between some trees. The trees prevented the light to escape into the sky giving the street, a beautiful glow. Here is the picture of the day:
