An Evening


My friends and I were on this photography spree this evening, i was showing them around and it wouldn't stop pouring that day. We had decided to keep just one camera and lens out of our bags to save the hassles. Although these images are from my camera i think Prashant took the first shot and i am still not sure who took this second one, me or him. Well, i like both of them as much! The first pictures is of the Maritime Museum's 'Star of India' ship that was all lit up and decorated for Christmas and stood out starkly against the beautiful blue skies. The second shot is of this little mom n pop store in Old Town are of San Diego that closes down early during non tourist season this time of the year. The stillness, the closed doors and windows, wet floors, the single weighing scale standing in that corner, the dim light against the dark of the night all together sang such a poetic story. It had to be captured!
Cheers Sprash! this is to you :)
