Kora by Kanishka's

2 days+ 5 stunning pieces+ an amazing designer-photographer, with an even more amazing spirit+inspiring backdrops+me=one helluva photo shoot.
So I lent my sparks to the sizzling fire that is Kora by Kanishka's, a unique label designed by Shaswaty Nair, here in Calcutta. Raw silk, wicked cuts and collars, innovative designs, affordable prices and a torrent of passion makes this one of the best places to shop in Cal. Check 'em out at
Kanishka Sarees, 2/1 Hindustan Road....

coming soon...

....birds, snakes, new friends,
pens, promises, pixies, fixes,
faeries, kitty's, storms, stories,
anewhairdo, but where to
next....?
a new year, bubbling with ambition,
two new eyes scanning 1 in a million horizons
radiating with light of unspoken worlds
each soul beat, giant leap,
foot tap, finger snap, heart match
propelling me fast forward towards
this cataclysmic explosion of my six senses
though,
none more real than the past swinging,
pendulum-ing west,east,west again..
none more real than the tides churning,
the rock sitting,
an emotion hurtling against
my heart's brick wall

Last Post of the Year?

Surfaced has an old roll of film. Dated with multiple exposures, and evidence of an ancient camera that leaks light, this roll was perhaps one of the last shot with my baby Pentax ME Super. Oh what I would do to have her rollin again. This was shot on my way back from Darjeeling in August '07 and out of a roll of 24, here you have 5 frames that are admissible, and one frame that's actually worth looking at. I know, don't say it, I have the makings of a sentimentalist.


Spot the web?

I spy......Daddy Bikram!

Thassall. Back with more from Benares.
Tomorrow is Mum's birthday, so lots to do, hopefully I'll manage another post before the year's end.
Peace and Love,

Birth Celebrations


My two favourite girls, Salima and Gayatree!


The Italian Chorus - Thomas, Anna, Mauro and Daniele

Anna!


After the Birthday Fritata, Parachute Joint, Cake and random bursts of birthday songs, this was the best part of the evening...the jam session a la Mathias on Tablas, Giuliano on Guitar and Ale on Keyboards.


Tritha and Daniele!

Mauro!


Lana's pilgrimage to the Botanical Gardens when she visited in June. I just found these photos on a long lost memory card. Better late than never.





Stay tuned, more to come..as always.
Seasons Greetings!
