The writer takes at photography

Photography is an art and I've always been fascinated and overwhelmed by good pictures and cameras. The dream was a DSLR! Having bought a Nikon D5100, I sure am on cloud nine and clicking pictures is now an obsession. The whole camera selecting and buying process was frustrating, thank God for the techie friends. The most amazing part of the story is that the camera was available only in stores, not online. Having lost all hopes, sitting in the car leaving for Memphis, that magical phone call of an awesome friend who happened to go to that very store and picked that camera for me. I cannot be thankful enough.

A few weeks of possessing my new camera, I have been able to take few good pictures and I thought of sharing my experience of capturing some of natures most breathtaking views. I'd try to describe these pictures through words and I hope I do justice to the serenity of these fabulous scenes.

Sunset at Sardis Lake-

 Well, I'd start off with thanking my friends for coming up with the idea of going to Sardis and reaching just before sunset. It was so magnificent, the Sun. Looked as if we could walk down the sandy way and touch the giant red ball or just stand and stare at it. Even the naked eye could not do justice to how mesmerizing the Sun looked. The diffraction caused it to appear scaled and cosmetic and that's exactly how the camera captured it.

And then it was time to say goodbye. The sun set and went home, leaving is awed, cold and wondering- if only we could be as warm, if only we could be as magnificent, if only we could be the same tomorrow.
