| By Biswajit Dey, on August 3rd, 2010%  The Holi of 2010 is really memorable for me! I don’t remember of any Holi occasion when I have not been drenched in colours, but this time it was a different experience altogether – I went out to capture the Holi in the streets of Kolkata. It was planned a few days before the day. I gathered some info from Asis Da and Tumpa about where to go. Finally, I sorted out to capture two different moods of Holi – the first one – Holi in Traditional Way (in this post) and the second one – Holi the Ecstatic Way (in my next post). . . . → Read More: Holi (2010) – The Traditional Way!!! By Biswajit Dey, on August 2nd, 2010%  I got my Nikon D90 on 9th Jan, 2010. I just could not wait much longer to get out and start shooting again. Tumpa again accompanied me on the very next day (i.e. 10th Jan, 2010) and we went to the Vintage Car Rally. Although we were a bit late to the venue and had a lot of trouble entering the Fort Williams Ground without a pass, we managed to get through and got a few good clicks. We had to argue with the officers in charge (you know they are army men) regarding why they should let us enter the venue without the entry pass. After quite a few tries, argues and persuasion; we got one used pass (in front of the officers  ) from a person returning from the venue. . . . → Read More: Vintage Car Rally, Kolkata – 2010 By Biswajit Dey, on August 1st, 2010%  Here goes the travelogue and the photos taken during the North Bengal-Sikkim Trek. We went for this trek when I was in 3rd year of my engineering. It was one of the most memorable journeys of my life. We were nine and went for a nine day trip. Our trek route was a bit unusual and travelers generally don’t follow this route. We wanted to have it that way so that we can explore some lesser-known places. The actual trip that was planned was to follow the route as Siliguri-> Maneybhanjung -> Chitre -> Tonglu -> Dhotre -> Rimbik -> Shreekhola -> Samanden/Gorkey -> Tonglu -> Sandakhphu -> …. -> Siliguri; but we had to divert our trip from Gorkey to Jorthang and then back to Siliguri.We were going fine, but Tumpa had caught cold and had a soar throat. . . . → Read More: North Bengal-Sikkim Trek Travelogue and Photos By Biswajit Dey, on August 1st, 2010%  Yes, this is my first post and that’s why I thought of sharing my first so-called good photo. I was thinking of having my own photoblog for quite a long time and now I have this. This photo was taken during a family trip to Digha, West Bengal, India. I used to use a club provided Vivitar film camera with a 50 mm prime lens. . . . → Read More: First Post – First Photo | |
