Liverpool was my first brush with UK, way back in 2014. And in a lot of ways, remains very close to my heart. We got down at Manchester Airport and then took a train to Liverpool Lime Street station. Organically positioned between the City Centre and Merseyside, it exudes charm and a certain amount ofContinue reading “Liverpool Story – Throwback”

Kashmir ki Wadiyan
Visiting Kashmir in July last year was a unique experience. We have visited many hill stations in the last 20 years, but this was different. Kashmir is a bundle of beauty, magnificence and anxiety. A place where you can feel love and hatred in the same frame, a place where fear and bliss live together,Continue reading “Kashmir ki Wadiyan”
The Golden Temple, Amritsar
Our visit to the holy place was nothing short of a dream that finally came true. In the bucket list for eternity, this is now truly ‘Done’. Truly, a divine experience! Merely just setting our foot in the largest Gurudwara was indeed a cherished moment, something which cannot be described in simple words. After aContinue reading “The Golden Temple, Amritsar”
Pouring Snow
On his birthday in 2021, it was raining snow in Peterborough. It felt divine, we felt the gods were blessing him with all they had, and we were buried under supreme whiteness of sheer joy and a sense of goodness that was to follow. Such days of bliss are rare, and remain unforgettable.
Cityscape
I particularly like the view – shot from St James Quarters while returning from office, this was an unexpected encounter with the landscape of Edinburgh City Centre. Busy, bustling with usual evening chores, people thriving through traffic though pleasing enough to walk through the local stores and watch the sun settling down nicely enough toContinue reading “Cityscape”
Castle of 007
One of the most visited castles in the Western Highlands of Scotland, Eilean Donnan Castle invokes stunning beauty and nostalgia for the James Bond aficionados. Surrounded by 3 lochs – Loch Duich, Loch Long and Loch Alsh, the castle is a paradise for photographers like me. I could spend all day here and would be still gasping forContinue reading “Castle of 007”
JCP Attari – An Emotional Experience
This place will give you goosebumps. Not just the aura, but for the intense emotions that this place exudes along with the stigma of sadness and incomprehensible loss that we have witnessed over the years remains unparalleled, this stage will let you scream from the inside for the lives we have lost. For the firstContinue reading “JCP Attari – An Emotional Experience”
Spain’s Night Out
Spain were deserving winners last night. I was disappointed with England’s defensive approach and lacklustre football. In such high profile finals, we expect teams to take an all-out approach where you look to penetrate early, % of ball possession needs to be at the maximum and force the opponent to take risks and capitalise onContinue reading “Spain’s Night Out”
End of an Era
Watching today’s Wimbledon final felt like ‘passing over the mantle to the next generation’ kind of a feeling. Djokovic is a champion player and his stats speak for themselves – 24 Grand Slams, 7 Wimbledon titles and iconic rivalries with contemporary giants like Federer and Rafa. But everything doesn’t last forever. I still remember thoseContinue reading “End of an Era”
Marble Vibes
I visited Taj Mahal around 30 years ago. And then, came back to the white marbles in Dec 2023 with my family. And, what we saw was beyond what we felt. There is no doubt, and absolutely undisputed, this place has an ‘Aura’ which cannot be described in mortal words. And no, not because itContinue reading “Marble Vibes”
Silence
This picture was shot during the Pandemic (in Oct 2020). It was still so beautiful around but fear and death were doing the rounds then. The silence was so deafening that we all wanted this to end, desperately. Thankfully, here we are. Times change.
Downtown
Liverpool City Centre is a bustling part of the city filled with energy, positivity and charm. I used to commute everyday from St Domingo Vale to the City Centre (way back in 2014-15), it used to be roughly 20-25 minutes depending on traffic. Just to mention and this is specifically for my football aficionados –Continue reading “Downtown”
