PHOTOGRAPHY - The deeply engraved Passion

The freedictionary.com defines Photography as, the art or process of producing images of objects on photosensitive surfaces. But Photography means more than this to us.....

Photography and editing photographs is our passion, our desire, our dream, our penultimate hobby. It has infiltrated our RBC's and will remain embedded there. Colored sheets which shout out our imagination, creativity and direction loud and clear.

We'll revolutionize Photography from what it has been to what it is going to be. You'll love it because our photographs will reach out to you uncompromisingly.

You would notice that we love Photography but hate other photographers because we think we are the best in the business. Though we are still novice in the field we don't mind bragging about ourselves because we are sure of what we are going to be.

When we wake up its Photography, when we dine its Photography, when we think its Photography, when we talk its Photography, when we rejoice its Photography, when we comp its Photography, its nothing but Photography to the core.

We think, we explore, we imagine, we create, we live, we speak, we see, we click, we share, we enjoy, we laugh, through our CAMERA.

Hey buddy, you, yeah you, the one who is reading this, we would be very grateful to you, if you would send in your genuine comments and creative suggestions to our id, as we are open to constructive criticism and would take in your suggestion with the righteous spirit to the greatest extent and improvise more. Keep checking for some exhilarating pics at picsmana.blogspot.com

We are expecting more suggestions than compliments.

MarKS or KnOWledGE ??

I pity the students who sit for hours together and mug up chapters just for the sake of few meaningless numbers that will be printed on a paper that's obtained from our nature!
Do we ever think what we are learning from this so called, " EDUCATION " ?
We carry kilos of books everyday and in the end we only try to remember the things we mug up, just to pen them down on a paper in an examination.Our future is dependent on these stupid figures which can only get us a degree in some reputed institution, but not " QUALITY EDUCATION " .
Assuming that I'm being criticized for calling our marks as stupid figures, and someone is ready to state that these marks are indeed the outcome of quality education. In that case i have to mention few facts that most of us are aware of!
If Albert Einstein or Thomas Alva Edison had worked on their grades, then today's physics would not have existed.There are numerous examples to show that marks are totally different from the knowledge that we gain.I do not say that marks are meaningless.What i intend to say is that marks are important but knowledge is ultimate and that has to be our destiny.

Now that the exam heat is up, everyone is busy studying and aiming for great marks.
My advice is that please aim for knowledge and marks shall follow suit!

All the best for your exams !!

RippED ApaRT !!

" years of education,
miles of experience,
sleepless nights and quiet night-outs spent on our mother land.
Today we forget everything and head Overseas,
in search of petty pennies we forget our true identity, ,
That we are all INDIANS !! "

Sad is the fate of our nation today, that it's being haunted by many MNC's.
An end is yet to come! An end to our identity, an end to our culture as it's being westernized in a spectacular manner, an end to individuality as well, is bound to befall on our nation!
We are raised by our parents, teachers and adults keeping in view that we shall be the future of our nation! But what are we doing??
We study in India, we are protected by India and finally we end up increasing the prosperity of a foreign nation! In what manner India is benefitted by all this?
Our nation is in dire straights & in necessity of great minds and thinkers like in the past.Is it not a sad fact that it's been decades since an Indian born and Indian resident, won a nobel prize?
Wake up ! Wake up before India's developmental activities comes to a standstill.
If all the Indians serve India, then we will be a super power very soon!
There is a great demand for Indian brains all over the world and this surely gives a clue as to how great we are!
BE A TRUE INDIAN AND SERVE MOTHER INDIA!
JAI HIND !!

Ultraviolet Radiation

We all know that ultraviolet radiations which belongs to the electromagnetic spectrum,has harmful effects on human skin.It can cause a wide range of skin disorders like cancer,premature skin aging and so on.Ever wondered why this is being caused?? This is because of the free radicals that are released by the UV radiations which interferes with the normal functioning of the dermal layer of the skin.These radiations can also affect the enzymes that help in the repair of the damaged DNA.

Our skin can be protected from these rays by utilizing certain phytonutrients.Grape seed extract ,rich in proanthocyanidine,is one of the five phytonutrients especially powerful at protecting skin health.

Green tea poly-phenols suppress carcinogenic activity of uv radiations.Cucurmin ,turmerics main component ,is another phytonutrient that can inhibit cell proliferation and induce cell death.Red wine and revestrol can offer additional protection.

Therefore ,our skin can be effectively protected by the damaging effects of these rays,by the so called skin savers"phytonutrients".

Most beautiful woman !!

Ever wondered so as to who would be the most beautiful woman?
Well what's in your mind?
Is it Aishwarya rai or Lara dutta or Priyanka chopra or some female in the bollywood film industry??

Ok take a guess!
..
...
....









Certainly not, my dear friends!
The most beautiful woman is certainly not that female who stacks face packs on her face for the sake of an advertisement or a movie!
The most beautiful woman is your "MOTHER" !!
Has she not stood by your side whenever you needed help?
Was there any morning when she didn't wake you up by patting your head in a splendid manner?
Who was there for you when you cried on your farewell day of your schooling? Was it your friends, or was it your so called boy friend/girl friend? Was it not your mother who told this to you on your farewell day, " My dear, today is the most memorable day of your life. Have a great day "
Every mother thinks that her son/daughter is the most beautiful guy/girl in this world!
When a mother can see such immense beauty in her children, then why can't we consider our mother to be the most beautiful women on this earth!

Mother is God,
Mother is a saviour,
So friends, please think a million times before you hurt your mother by your words.......Respect her at all times, but for her, you are not what your are today!!

We all live in a nutshell and lead such pre-occupied lives that we cannot think beyond our fancy,materialistic thoughts!
This is indeed a bitter truth though you may jump up from your seat yelling at the writer of this blog.

"I LOVE MY MOTHER"

Whose garden are you gardening?

People think that they are their foremost priority though the reality is otherwise. Have you realized that your craving for the success of a movie of your favourite film star is more than the craving you have for your own success? You spend more time monitoring the successes and defeats of Indian cricket team than you spend monitoring your own progress! Isn't it a shame that you were able to stay awake through the night to watch cricket, football and tennis matches, but could not extend your own studies into the night? You exhibit greater emotional bondage to the characters in TV mega serials than your own family members? You have time for all the timid things but not for your growth, improvement and development and other areas where you have rabid interest???

A Roger Federer becomes what he is for he is his greatest priority in life. He might admire MS Dhoni, but would not sacrifice his own practice for the sake of watching a cricket match or the acting skills donned by Amitabh Bachchan. While you skip a period in your college to watch a Hrithik Roshan film, he would not sacrifice his morning workout for the sake of monitoring the elections. You have to be your greatest priority. Invest your prime time on the essential aspects of your life and the left over time for other distractions. If you cannot lift yourself you cannot lift anybody else.

Identify oneself mentally and emotionally with the success of other people as if it is his own success is erroneous gratification. Whose garden are you gardening? It is time that you wake up to water your garden first to keep it lively and rejuvenating and then to look around. Could you raise yourself to that level that one-day the other gardeners would come to you for expert counselling ????

Nuclear Deal/Disaster?

The nuclear deal is one of the major issues of late!!
Fact file:
Recently in America two nuclear reactors have been dismantled and they are seeking Sri Lanka for assistance in the disposal of the nuclear wastes.
It sounds simple doesn't it?? But the thing is that the American's are clever indeed,their proposal is to dispose their nuclear wastes in the sea,at a safe distance from Sri Lanka.
The Americans have promised to dispose the nuclear wastes in strong lead containers,but the problem is that the life span of the strong lead structures is 200 years where as the life span of the nuclear waste contained in these huge structures is about 25000 years.
India,Sri lanka and many other nations share the same sea,so we are safe at present but 200 years from now, India's fate would be that of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.Not only India but many surrounding nations will be facing the same disaster.
I strongly believe that A pen is mightier than a sword, so kindly motivate everyone by this precise piece of information.
Let us save India and our mother "The Earth".
Please respond avtively to the posts, but for everyone's support, this mission is at stake.
