This craggy, ruined castle is in the Brecon Beacons National Park in South Wales. This is a self pic taken with the help of a timer shot.]]> Darkness within the castle is pierced by the bright daylight outside that streams in through a window. This is one of the windows at the Pembroke castle in Wales.]]> Jagged rocks line the beach at Marloes Sands. Marloes Sands, in Wales, is one of the most beautiful beaches I've been to. Where it's not rocky, the beach is sandy (thankfully!) and quite flat... which means it's quite safe to enter the water without the threat of suddenly finding yourself in deep water!]]> A lonely tree stands on the northern shore of Bala lake... the largest water body in Wales, situated within the scenic Snowdonia National Park. While I was there, a cold breeze was blowing across the lake sending occasional shivers through the body. I thought the "Urban Acid" effect conveys the chill in the air effectively! :-)]]> One of the three majestic white tigers, at the famous Singapore Zoo, wades through the pool to cool off on a warm and humid day. It was the feeling of awe that I experienced when I saw these tigers at the Singapore Zoo. Being a model of the "open zoo" concept, one can see these majestic animals move around in large "natural" areas... as opposed to seeing weakened animals lie listlessly in cramped cages in older zoos like the one in Mumbai. ]]> Inside a Chinese paper lamp. However, I like to think of the spiral as the thought process of our brain. Starting from the outermost spiral, the thoughts slowly crystallize as we travel inwards. When we reach the innermost spiral, the bulb lights and we have our idea!]]> It suddenly started raining while we were on the Isle of Wight. And then the clouds parted and there was sunshine just as suddenly. And a bright rainbow appeared off the coast! So I stopped the car and took this picture sitting in the car with the windows rolled down...]]> One of nature's momentary masterpieces...]]> Fresh after an early morning rain shower, this rose looks radiant... at the Mapro factory outlet at Panchgani]]> ... can be creepy crawly! ;-)]]>
