Distant Land







Hi 'am back after a very long silence,was feeling a bit low, at times I become too moody, every thing seems monotonous and the life seemed out of gear.My kids are having their exams,here in India children spend most of their time appearing for exams,no time for other co-curricular activities ,life in India begins with struggles and ends in struggles.Here there is cut throat competition in every field there's lot of pressure on children as well as the parents.We Indians take care of our kids till their wings are strong enough to fly far of to a distant land to start of a new little world of their own.

Burgundy Dye

My daughter happiness knew no bounds ,they were showing it of to all their friends.The colour has come out well .One is said to have a very loving husband if the henna(mendhi ) dye is dark, the darker the merrier
.

Majestic Henna

I applied henna on both my daughters and my hand this "Rakshabandhan" I had learned this art 18 years back before my marriage, was not sure if it would come out well.

Henna :Harmless Dye




Henna is a shrub of 2-6m height ,it's native of tropical reigions of Africa,Southern Asia and Australasia.It has been in use since Bronze Age. It is applied on wedding ceremonies and feslivals for good luck,joy and happiness.Henna has an affinity to bond with protien due to the presence of lawsone, a burgundy dye molecule.Henna when used in a traditional way is harmless but when boosted with chemicalsphenylenediamine, silver nitrate, pyrogallol and carmine it can cause severe alergic reactions causing lifelong health damages

The Romantic City Agra

I thought of taking u folks back in history and tell something about Agra.
Agra has arich historical background ,which dates back to theMahabharata era, Agra was known as Agravana, the abode of the Aryans.Ptolemy gave the city its' present name.
Agra is intricately linked with the Moghul dynasty,but was actually founded by Sikandar Lodi(Lodi dynasty 18th century)
Agra became famous for the beautiful Taj Mahal built by Shahjahan in the loving memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal. The other places of attraction are Agra Red Fort,Fatehpur Sikri,Buland Darwaza Panch Mahal.

Butterfly

Beautiful colours of nature.I was going through the pictures saved by my daughter .All these colours of natures appeal to me a lot. This reminds me of the poem I read as a kid.
