They were standing as if waiting for a taxi. Not exempted from wearing the masks, understandably so.

Slow movements have certain air of sereneness while he’s practicing. And this is one of my favorite park in Singapore.

Cows straying on street is a common sight in Indian streets but this strayed calf caught my attention in a busy street with some emotion.

She would have hoped to sell the entire bag before end of the day, I guess. Woman in the background was at her tea stall, reading a paper.

I liked how the transparent curtain added another element into the perspective.

He has an unique way to carry the pot which is different from how people carry in lower altitude. He’s well accustomed to carry at such altitude. The monastery is overlooking the Manasarovar lake and such divine and beautiful place.

One of a breathtaking display of golden color that I had seen in an unmanned beach. So divine.

I am learning more about various lives when I photograph them. I can see pollens in the wings of this butterfly.

They are quite at ease in their natural habitat, and socializing among themselves.

I find that as cute as I have done the same under the hot Sun. Frangipani tree on the background is widely seen in Singapore.

Historical building from the colonial era, creatively colored and lit up. It has apparently 927 windows. No air-conditioning those days.

I was happy to have included the little boy watching into the frame – as I felt too like that boy, just watching that spectacle.

His way of carrying a goat on his shoulders was very intimate and intrigued me. Glad he looked at me in approval when I had taken the picture too.
