Bangledeshi people are very curious. Those people were standing there for good couple of minutes without a blink, following our every move.

Piers

Well, This shot is very very personal. I will share with you all how.

It is about two years ago when I was working as a digital artists( <a href="http://blasphemedsoldier.deviantart.com/gallery/#_featured--6" My digital works ) I used to surf www.deviantart.com more or less everyday. As my interest were intact within digital canvas I didn't go through photography section much at that time.

But somehow one day on "DAILY DEVIATION" page I saw a photograph just like this one in black and white and I thought this must be some digital work. So I checked it out and was utterly shocked and terribly lost into the center of the point of that photograph. My mind was so biased by the technique that I don't think I will overcome it ever. Well I don't want to. :)

SInce then I have had in mind that I will shot a photograph where I and my viewer can get lost into the center. I tried the same with my first cam SONY DSC H1 but that was too much limitation for this kind of shot.

This time I went to the same place where I tried to took the shot with SONY but alas, the piers were no more there! hahaha

But fortune played a surprising role. In last tour, I was there for furnishing my apartment and I got 3/4 hours spare time to spent in my own style and I went away all alone.

The very moment I saw the piers it was a feelings I wanted to have since last two years. It's nothing especial and nothing unique but this was my dream. The very moment I saw the spot I painted the scene in my mind and here it is.

Who ever read upto this much I truely appreciate from heart. After all this is my boring ranting. :)

Out there with the wind

I still treasure a vague memory of the blazing noon i learned to ride a bicycle.My father had returned from office and i was all ready, with my brand new red bicycle.

It took 15 to 20 minutes.I was scared not to see his grip on the back all of sudden,but don`t know why i went on to push the paddles harder than ever...

That,was a wonderful day for me.I was over the moon,i could set out with the wind,at last!
