Prithvi - Agni - Jal - Akash

One of the best sunset shots I have taken. Below you see waters of Fort Pond, Montauk, and sky with all possible shades of Yellow and red.

Nature and its colors

Each sunset [and may be sunrise - but have not seen many ;)] is different and has its own different colors. One such captured in Montauk.

Dead End!!!

Two trains waiting at the Dead End.

Beautiful.....

Afer a long time comes this new post. Barecha diwas "nisargachya" sannidhyaat gelo navhato na [:)]. Here comes one of my best photographs. This was taken on a ranch in Montauk, NY (7th-Oct-2006) when I was taking rest after in my "cycling" on the way to light house. Sleeping on the green grass, looking at the Blue sky above, I clicked the photo, and it was just right combination of colors... enjoy

Niagara Falls : The horse shoe fall

A close up view of Horse Shoe Fall

Niagara Falls : The horse shoe fall

Here comes the famous Horse Shoe fall - with its famous mist. See how the mist is going up in the air. And yes, this mist started around 170 feet below the land you see. The buildings you see behind are in Canada.

Niagara Falls : Few views of American Falls

You can see small Horse shoe of American falls. As the falls are flowing, they are eroding the soil below, taking falls deeper in the island. You can also see "humans" roaming around the fall to appreciate size of the falls.

Niagara Falls : Few views of American Falls

Another view of American Falls. At the right most end you can see a separate small fall - which is Bridal Veil Fall. The island where these falls are located is called Goat Island.

Niagara Falls : Few views of American Falls

Niagara Falls is made of three falls
1. Americal Falls
2. Bridal Veil Falls (Both are in US)
3. Horse Shoe Fall (Part US part Canada) - this is the most famous fall

What you see here are American falls.

Niagara Falls - Niagara River

Another view of Niagara River. Half the river is owned by US and other half by Canada.

Niagara Falls - Niagara River

Niagara Falls - one of the most famous travel destination in US. Ans yes, when u see them, u realize they really are great. What you are seeing here is the Niagara river, just before it starts "falling" all the way.

Chrysler Building

Building which I like. Its top is very decorative and not like other "Box" shaped buildings.

Visit to NY 3 - Inside GCT

The Dome above the Main Hall in GCT is with pictures for all "Raashis" drawn. In picture you can see "Mithun" and "Karka".

Visit to NY 3 - NY - Inside GCT

GCT (Grand Central Terminal) - Good piece of architecure - though as usual in america - is not well lit. Had many problems while trying to take photos inside the GCT :).

Visit to NY 3 - NY Grand Central Terminus

This is Grand Central Terminal Entrance. One of the biggest train stations in world. I have boarded a train from Platform No. 106 here :) Dunno total how many are there... Frankly I was more mesmerized by seeing CST, Mumbai than the GCT :D

Visit to NY 3 - NY at night

This is NY at night. At center is Empire State Building. I took photo from "Top of the Rock" observatory from Rockefeller Center. Khoop try kela tari pahije tasa photo yet navhta - so got in Tv mode (Shutter Priority) and with shutter speed of 4 seconds - was able to get this after atleast 5 attempts. :) Long shutter speed definitely asked for Steady hand - so just put the camera on the wall - and clicked.

Chicago

Hmm... sundar city. Its a great city, with a "lakeshore" drive by Michigan Lake and river Chicago flowing through a city, with mix of old and modern architecture in it - this city is just great. In this picture itself, you can find a river going through downtown, with a collage of Old Stone-made buildings standing side by side with Glass-wrapped sky scrapers. You can see old-style architecture in the "glass towers" too. Shri
