Thinking of this Pav Bhaji that I made a couple o Thinking of this Pav Bhaji that I made a couple of weeks back for potluck at a friend's place. The light was so beautiful that I had to photograph it. I always start with my go to window for the first few images. Once I get a couple of good images that I like then I start to play around with the composition, light and the story ( this takes 80% of the my shoot time). These were a couple of my favorite images from that shot. Doesn't the sun beautifully catches the melted butter on the top of the Bhaji ...and now I am dreaming about it now. Maybe I will make it again today.
How is your weekend going?

Traditionally Modern.... Pongal was one of my fa Traditionally Modern....

Pongal was one of my favorite festivals growing up. The smell of freshly harvested turmeric tied around the cooking pot, shouting “Pongalo Pongal” next to the bubbling pot of had such a rustic vibe to it...

I remember enjoying, almost looking forward to, the hours of mindless sugar cane chewing with or without company. I don't know if I have the teeth for it now but those were some fun times.  The whole month of margazhi was so fresh and alive.... 

Now I use instant pot insted of the traditional pot, frozen turmeric instead of fresh ones, and just the memory of karumbu ... Is this what my kids will remember while making there own traditions! Well, with that I leave you with a glimpse of my experience of this special day...

Swipe to see the ingredient shot

Happy Pongal/Sankranthi!!

Our little fun to enjoy the holidays.

Room to breathe.. .. 2020 has been many things to Room to breathe..

2020 has been many things to many people and it's effects will linger on for years to come for many of us. 

Thinking of and thanking everyone in the frontline and background fighting this pandemic head on. My salutes!
..
For me this year has been a year of learning and growing. Grateful, thankful, memorable, anxious and full of Life would be some of the other words I would describe my year.

As much as I want and pray that things go back to normal for all our good, I secretly love this lifestyle as it taught me growth mindset, valuing things that matter the most to me and mostly time for self and self confidence in my creative journey.....

Taking the best from 2020 and wishing everyone a peaceful, memorable and satisfying 2021
