Pawan Blog

Before my busy and unplanned day starts... I would like to show you people some thing.

This is a graph of traffic coming to the blog, which I have taken from Google analytics, though number is quite small but tread of graph is very much encouraging. I must thank all of you coming to my blog, please keep on reading me. Also few of my friends and readers requested to open up comments... hmmm... I also don’t like this mono-log, but unfortunately I can not do this, until I have sufficient time to go through each... sorry .

I will try to post more late-night, there are many events that I am thinking of doing this weekend but my calendar is not set yet, nothing planned yet. One thing I must do is to take Anshu and kids out .

As I have started posting more and more photographs (though still not good enough ), so was thinking to either change the template or make it wider, so that I can post large images and you guys then will not needed to click on the image to view large size.

Changing the template is not that easy for me, as I have done a lot of coding to get those gadgets. Like shoubox and javascript driven Archive menu, it's still achievable for a designer who has good understanding of CSS, let me know if you or a know person to you interested doing this, I have a very decent design in my mind .

While looking into CSS I realized that it's easy to widen the template. I can live with it for the time being. But still would like to transform the template with the one which I selected. Can not disclose the template fearing copy-catty, but one thing I can say that "You are going to love it".

Posting an image to test the width ...

I was mostly at home except going for badminton in the morning and Transformers in evening. I didn’t liked the movie, they were very noisy, reconstruction was confusing and close-up shots of fight between them was not clear, some times I even failed to recognize who is who, who is hitting whom, where is head and where is body, may because they were too colorful or my eyes need check up.

Anyways as Ananya started walking from past few days, I decided to capture her first steps. What I was thinking to let her come on her feet by her own and walk few steps. After 10 odd tries I got one clip. Here you go .

 

I left office at 6:30 for Asian Civilization Museum, I was already aware that my entries are not selected, the purpose of visit was the see the winning entries and capture Mr. McCurry. I was just on time; saw some excellent photographic work by winners. My fault was that I have submitted my photographs just by selecting 2 of my best, as I thought that this is open category, didn't noticed that theme was Ungraded Movement and neither I tried to explore the work done by the judge Mr. McCurry, may be more carefully analyzing and understanding these 2 thing would have been helped me selecting right photographs for the entries. My entries were totally out of theme , I will be careful next time .  

It was a low light condition in the announcement hall, and my 1000D sucks in low light, further I was standing far behind everyone, fortunately I was carrying my tele lens, and I manage to get few clean shots of him. These were taken with big aperture and high ISO, so I have reduced them to remove noise and blur.

I am not going to post winning photographs, not sure if I can do that or not.
