Create your own cartoons

Toondoo is a very nice place where you can cartoon-ize your opinion. I did not spend much time there, yet. For now this is what I have for you. Click on the cartoon to view it properly.

I know it is not hilarious; it’s just my first try.

Wall sculptures

I am not good at mythology, I have tried naming cherecters. suggest me good names to the sculptures ( if you dint like my nomenclature). these are the images of walls of cave temples in mahabalipuram.

GovardhanaGiridhari.: To protect a town called “nandagopa”, krishna lifts a mountain called “govardhana giri” with his small finer. All living creature take protection under that.

When this song released, Kurt Donald Cobain was lying (supposedly) high on streets (with normal dose of heroin). Cops gave him roof that night, while radio stations repeatedly playing this song “Smells like teen spirit” a new genre altogether. Within no time song was topping the charts, and teen found a new god.

 

Kurt Cobain defined “grunge rock” as a genre to the world, and this song (and another “come as you are” in the same album) became anthem for mass hysteria. He was 27 when he died, a suicide. But he is biggest teen icon even today (may be second biggest, after “che guevara”

I was reading …

Observer tagged me to “Publish the 5th/last paragraph of the page number 123 of the book you are reading. And tag other 5 “. Currently I am reading two books.

One among them is “Kahlil Gibran” collection of his greatest works. To be specific “the prophet “among them. It doesn’t have123 pages, so here is the last page. Please don’t ask me what about it, I dint reach there yet.

 

 

Good evening

Good morning… Then afternoon …..And now …

Friends complain for me not mentioning the place I click the photos. Most of the time it is not worth telling, sometimes I too don’t know them. So let me try from this time.

The location I clicked this is called “Narahari Parvatha”. It’s not a big mountain (as its name says) , but surely is a hill which has “sadashiva” temple built on the top of it. As usual people don’t like to climb a lot just to see god, unless he is a powerful god like thirupathi. Temple was empty, not a great trekking spot , but still…500 steps !!!

I tried to shoot Netravathi River, dint come up well. Look at the satellite image,

I recall 500 English movies …

I can recall 500 movies now and this is my list in IMDB. I have selected my favorite among them here. Click on the images or the link to learn more about the movies.

• The movies roughly belong to those categories I have given below. Some of them are more than 10 and some of them less.
• Movies in are in no order inside the category, they are qualified to be called as my favorites. In other words I am feeling lazy to rearrange them
• Sequels and trilogies are shown as the first movie itself ( reason : lazy )
