Another day

Another day in life is passed, as usual nobody notices the today. In today’s Episode of KBC, Mr Bachchan Said ‘Every attempt gives you a precious Experience, which worth a million in future, hence keep trying, keep attempting’ really agreed.

 

In an continuous attempt of photography i always got a greater amount of experience with each snap. As a newbie i was just clicking, now i am seeing first and then clicking and I want to move to a stage where first I see, I feel, I think , I imagine and then I click :-) Yep, it’s a long journey but who is in hurry.

Following is a snap I clicked, is from hotel Raaj-Purohit, Kolhapur. It’s a portrait of a Lady, in a Maharashtrian attire with a “Panchaarati” in hands and behind her you can see the “Samaee” . First thing which I noticed was detailing in portrait. Sari, Jewels are really well existing in maharashtrian culture. Colours are beautiful, expression on a face is calm and showing may be respect to either God. Darkness Behind her and “light coming from Samayee” indicates the contrast of life and also indicates the position of her. Over and all good snap , I think :-)

शेर शिवराज है !!!

Shivaji is the Tiger...........Excerpts from The ShivarajBhushan by MahaKavi Bhushan Tripathi

इन्द्र जिमि जृम्भा पर
बाडव सअंभ पर
रावण सदंभ पर
रघुकुल राज है !

पवन बारिबाह पर
संभु रतिनाह पर
ज्यों सहसबाह पर
राम द्विजराज हैं !

दावा दृमदंड पर
चीता मृगझुन्द पर
भूषण वितुण्ड पर
जैसे मृगराज हैं !

तेज तमअंस पर
कन्ह जिमि कंस पर
त्यों म्लेंच्छ बंस पर
शेर शिवराज हैं!!!!!!!!!!!

- महाकवि भूषण

This blog surely has provided us the good translation. The Kavi Bushan hailed Shivaji Maharj and this poem is now title song well known TV serial “Raja ShivChatrapati”.

Poor show by India at T-20 worldcup

Today India and Aus match was there. India, the T-20 World Champions and good side against the strong Aussies, SO expected a good battle. Aussies started really great! They hammered indian bowlers so well that it was giving impression that any rookie team is bowling. Ravindra Jadeja, who seems to be Dhoni’s favourite, gifted six Sixes to aussies, All bowlers bowled bad. :-(

Now it was upto Batsmen to show some guts and go for kill. But Alas, all they imagined was a IPL like matches and played amaturish shots and threw their wickets. Bowling attack was good , no doubt, but we are not rookies, we were world champions and we should have batted like champions. But apart from rohit sharma no body bothered to stay on pitch and get some runs.

Now we have two matches against Windies and SL, hopefully we should improve our game. Agreed that you can not witch every match but in such competitions and at such levels you should play professionally.

Timepass

After almost 1 and half years gap, i am writing this blog post. I don’t know how i will improve on my writing skills, but i know i can at least try to write what is in my mind. I have visited good numbers of blogs and all have been really great. These bloggers are really nurturing the need of new literature. There are different types of bloggers but I visit mostly to Marathi blogs as it gives pleasure to read their blogs.

Currently we are experiencing a very hot summer here but yesterday’s rain has given some relief. Let us hope for some more good rains to cool the city.
