A sight to behold

I discovered my love for photography very recently and since then every moment is a treasure as I keep looking around with amazed eyes wondering what is worth capturing. I had read somewhere click as many pictures as you can for someday when you will flip through them they will make you smile! And I truly agree as I flipped through my folders today I not only smiled I also remembered the moment when they were clicked and the story behind each one of them. Sharing with you today seven of my most favourite clicks ( In no particular order/ ranking and no there is no BEST yet, for I believe my best click is yet to happen):









 



Though I might have shared them here on my Silent Saturday Posts , would still love to hear your comments on them!

P.S: I am taking part in The Write Tribe Festival of Words 1st - 7th September 2013

My theme for this festival is sharing some SPECIAL things for me in my life like photography, books, music, friends, my blogs etc so that I have a reminder with me every time I want to count my blessings!

Movie Review: If by Tathagata Ghosh – A Tender Portrait of Love, Loss, and Possibility

If , a 26-minute short film by acclaimed Bengali filmmaker Tathagata Ghosh, is a sensitive, evocative piece of storytelling that lingers long after the credits roll. Set against the everyday rhythm of life in Kolkata, the film delicately unpacks the story of a lesbian couple torn apart by the weight of societal expectations and dares to imagine a different future, one where a mother's love might just change everything.  What struck me first was the film’s raw, grounded realism. The characters feel like people we know, middle-class families navigating a complex world with quiet resilience. The world of If is filled with silences, glances, and stills, rather than heavy dialogue. Ghosh masterfully uses these moments to speak volumes, allowing viewers to sit with discomfort, interpret the unspoken, and feel deeply.

Book Review: The Story of Eve: Selected Poems by Zehra Nigah

Few voices in Urdu poetry have carried the weight of history, resistance, and deep personal introspection quite like Zehra Nigah. One of the first women to break into the traditionally male-dominated world of Urdu poetry, Nigah’s work stands as a testament to the power of words to illuminate, question, and challenge. The Story of Eve: Selected Poems, translated by Rakshanda Jalil, brings together some of her most powerful nazms and ghazals, showcasing both her literary elegance and her unflinching gaze at the human condition, particularly through the lens of gender, social injustice, and political turmoil.
