Wow, deep feelings by seeing this photo. I really like it.

(yes, it's a dying sunflower, autumn is here, next summer more living sunflowers :)

Suzana said...

Lovely, Swati! I like this a lot too.
It has an apocolyptic feel... :o ;D

Sarad said...

wow! can you post the original one with colors?

Tim Rice said...

Interesting. Almost gives me the feel of a castrophe rather than a promise of a hopeful future.

Kunal said...

felt dizzy after i stared at it for a few seconds...or mebbe its just the hangover...:D...even as there is so much color, things without have meaning too...like what you notice out on the streets with halogen lights...

Sarad said...

not for the rainbow, it would look like a scence from a horror movie. where are the colors, moi? :P

KAD said...

It's beautiful!! Almost wizardish. Was it shot in the evening or at twilight??

suzana: apocalyptic feel...yeah it does...and where ve u disppeared....i miss the pics on ur blog...

sarad: i will try to get back the colors ;)

tim: yeah, it does.....and i wonder if there's still a pot of gold at the end of it ;)

kunal : true...but somehow i love my world of colors .....:)guess, that goes with my etrnal sunny disposition (with a few blues thrown in between)

kanishka: was shot during late evening in tint mode and then bumped a li'l to take away the colors..infact there were twin rainbows....one of them so faint that the camera cud not capture it..btw, what r u doing on this blog of mine, havent seen u arnd before :DDDD

impossible things.. just the form to tell us what is it (well... there's a label too :p)
the power of ideas, of images, of well-known things

hey!! how you doing!

Nabeel said...

what a great idea .. nobody every thought of monochroming the rainbow .. soo much color in black and white .. rainbow is still pretty .. no matter what colors .. it lights up the sky in this pic.
