I needed a mid-week pickup to get rid off the hump day blues so decided to post some of these flower pictures which instantly brightened up my day. These pictures are from a few years back. Did they brighten up your day too?

Sunrises and sunsets fascinate me and wherever in the world I am, I try to capture nature’s canvas as best as I can. This is a throwback post to some of the awesome sunsets I’ve managed to capture….

Singapore
Sin

New Delhi

Kuala Lumpur

Jogyakarta

Somewhere between Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai
After Chinatown, we decided to go to Little India aka Serangoon Road for dinner and a surprise awaited us. We didn’t know that the street was also lighted up for the Pongal festival. So we got another light-up as a bonus!

Over the long Chinese New Year weekend, I decided to take the children to Chinatown to soak in the New Year atmosphere. Here are some pictures from that visit!

One Sunday while in Mumbai, I went out with a very old friend downtown. We ate, shopped and most importantly chatted the afternoon away. It was evening when we decided to call it a day and while waiting for our Uber driver to pick us up, I took these photos…
