Hues of the beach...

Sorry for the long break folks... I am completely short of ideas and have run into severe writers' block. Taking a break next week. Let me see if my mind kickstarts with some new inspirations :P
For now... I am leaving you with these pics taken at the beach. Having spent my childhood in a coastal town, the seaside is one area that remains my favourite... for all moods and seasons... :-)

Destination Infinity said...

The third picture of the crow and golden water is too good... I am also trying to take some long shots with my cell phone camera but it comes out hopeless!! I have to buy one good digital camera with zoom, like how you have.... The crow picture, was it zoomed or you went so near to take it??

Destination Infinity

I guess it was zoomed, crows are naturally careful ;)

Ashwathy said...

@Chatterbox
thanks :-) welcome to my blog...!


@DI
as u rightly guessed, it was a major zoom in... the crow wud have run (or rather, flew) for its life if I had come any closer. But i love the shot as it is...

Emm said...

Yes, we are. The address is http://www.shetizenjournalist.com/index.htm (hope you don't mind me putting a URL in the comment). You don't have to be an expert or anything but can just write about how certain issues impact on you.
