Last foss.in
The year gone by can be best described as a year of photography and traveling.
I started the new year with my
20th picture on Flickr explore, but the novelty of Flickr explore wore off pretty soon as I got a
front page explore again and then
40 pictures and
finally 50+. We traveled to the
Rann of Kutch for a week in the last week of January and got a lot of
bird (and a few animal) photographs.
February saw me doing the long over due drive to Mallura Village in Melghat in
quest for the the Forest owlet . The pictures I brought back from that trip have been in demand by several publications and websites.
I started collaborating with Lalit Vikamshi and we have been doing some very
interesting experiments with studio photography since then…
Mid May we took another trip and this time it was to Tanzania, It was an
wonderful and unique experience and once again there were a
lot of photographs, in fact 14000+ I finally managed to post-process upload the last of selected few in November. Just before the trip we celebrated our
16th wedding anniversary I got myself an iPad and
became a fan.
September I tried out the
750 Words experiment successfully, turned
44 and noticed that my blog has
200006 published words.
The trip Botswana trip I planned with Amit Sharma materialized and we
camped in the heart of Moremi and Savuti.
The most significant event of the year for me was the last
foss.in, it was an
amazing journey for all of us. For the curious Atul has written
why it was the last. We stayed one day more and took the last wildlife trip of the year to B.R. Hills with
Kalyan and stayed at the awesome
Gorukana Resort Resolutions: I have never been too much of a new year resolutions person but this year I have decided that starting 1st Jan for 100 days I will be a vegetarian and not take any alcohol. The second resolution is to continue with writing 750 Words daily for next 100 days
