The Story Of Us

  Another hand photograph from the archives. This one was taken in Karachi, Pakistan. Getting this picture was a right place at the right time situation. I was in the backseat of the car waiting just like this man here for the light to turn green. His ring adorned hand hanging out the window. It was a quick moment and I just happened to have my camera with me. Lucky me. This was in the pre cell phone era.. You can buy this print  here .

H's 20 question post was a little belated. Things have been busy and with all the travel posts.. I have more by the way I lost track of time and his January birthday post ended up in February.  February is also a birthday month. M and I celebrated our birthdays, mine on Thursday and his on Friday. For a person who cares little about sports except maybe hockey, the weekend involved a lot of sports, a surprise and Squid Games. on Thursday night we went out for some Portuguese food. and celebrated with some brownie a la mode.  and then came home and worked on a puzzle while watching Landman. Have you seen it?  On Friday.. M's birthday we headed to the city for a Rangers (hockey) game. It was a nail biter but unfortunately we lost. It was still a good time.  On Saturday we headed back to New York for a Knicks vs Celtics game. The Celtics decimated the Knicks.. it was hard to watch.  But our Celtics loving H was very happy. There were many many Celtics fans at the ga...

                               Today I share another photograph from the archives. Also another photograph of a hand. This photograph was taken in Karachi in a wicker furniture makers workshop. It was a long time ago so I don't remember what it was that he was making but I remember the movement of his fingers, working so quickly weaving the bamboo.  Prints can be found here                                 Etsy             Instagram             Twitter             Redbubble             Zazzle

I am going to be sharing another one from the archives. This above photograph was taken in Karachi. On of the women from the janitorial staff in my college was sitting on the bench taking a break and I found the warm brown of her skin so beautifully complemented by the orange of her shalwar (a baggy pant like garment worn by women in South Asia.. think hammer pants) The print is available for purchase here                                  Etsy             Instagram             Twitter             Redbubble             Zazzle             Society6  

We spent a total of three nights in Las Vegas . On our second day there.. to break up the monotony of the strip we decided to do a little off strip exploring. Last time we visited Vegas, M and I visited the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation  which is just 30 mins away this time we ventured a little further and drove 75 mins to the Valley of Fire State Park, Nevada's oldest and largest state park. It is 46,000 acres of red Aztec sandstone, formed by shifting sand dunes 150 million years ago.  We had two main hikes on the agenda. The first was the Fire Wave and Seven Wonders loop (1.8 miles)  and the second was the White Domes loop (1.1 mile).  The was a $10 entry fee. We stopped at the Visitors Center for a quick bathroom break and encountered this handsome fella.  I would have guessed and said ram but google informs me that it is a bighorn sheep. We drove towards the hike and let me tell you.. just the drive through the park was worth it.. if you h...
