I’ve been longing to do a Photo shoot on a Traditional Setup. The long waited Opportunity finally gave away when a cousin got married. What you see here is a classic example of a Macro shot in available light.

I sometimes feel bad looking at such pictures. There were so many tonnes of people around the world who were fascinated by the details of her jewelery and the henna design but we being Indians most of the time do not realize the value of this tradition and culture that we have.

May be the proverb ‘too much of anything is poison’ is correct or maybe we have forgotten to value things that are more important that trivial things that we tend to hug into.

Many a times i feel this proverb becomes so right…

“The root cause of all confusion on earth… people are supposed to be loved and things are supposed to be used. Instead things are being loved and people are being used”

Just a random thought that came up working on a sunday at office. Thought i’d blog it since i had nothing better to do.
