Angels everywhere!
well…there I was almost suffocating with the heat (the temperatures don’t really go down below 40 & on top of that we were there before sundown!)… and all of a sudden I feel like kicking myself for not carrying anything other than my phone. There I was surrounded my lil angels and oh they reminded me of something!
So while my folks set out to do whatever it is they were there to do (@ dubai garden centre btw)…i pulled out my newly acquired HTC Touch pro (that used to be my dad’s a year back) and started awkwardly hopping about taking random shots here and there, kneeling, crawling and god knows what not
(oh yahhh hiding the fact that I was taking pictures from the shop guys who were all overrrr the place)
Well what came out of it? Lemme leave you with the good side… its a pre-birthday booster for someone


Angels are never too far to hear your call.

We are each of us angels with only one wing, and we can only fly by embracing one another. ~Luciano de Crescenzo

The golden moments in the stream of life rush past us and we see nothing but sand; the angels come to visit us, and we only know them when they are gone. ~George Elliot




Angels are all around us, all the time, in the very air we breathe. ~Quoted in The Angels’ Little Instruction Book by Eileen Elias Freeman, 1994
PS: Next time I hope I have sense enough to take a proper camera

Whoa! Taken with mobile? The 2nd snap… i just love it. Yeah, u better take the cam with u. D80!!! Hmmm i wish i have one. There is always next month salary
. Btw work on with textures for these snaps
Did u saw the making of painting? In the new apmt leave *tht* wall clear
And that would be a D90
and you can totally have mine if you promise to take me on that graveyard trip! LoL…anyhow u wud put it to better use than me! I can barely carry its full weight at times! grrrr….
As for that painting…heheehee…u know how slow I am ryt
so I was totally fascinated having only seen such things in youtube videos before!…
Wow! didn’t know HTC gave such brilliant images. Always mocked ppl who used it… for its size
But just wondering what angels like these are doing there… it is western cultural influence or anything specific?
Heehee…well to be honest I mocked it myself till I landed up with one (not that I love it except for its now newly discovered camera brilliance
)
As for the angels…LoL..well this was one of those landscaping your garden places. In other words…*pretend ur not living in the desert* (but besides that…dubai is totally influenced by the west! at the same times its got its culture burried in the old streets, forts, souks, dhows etc…u just need to look away from the shiny new structures shooting up left/right/centre a lil to spot it
)
D90 ? I thought you might opt for a Rebel! I am sure SriVidya and I swear by our 400 D!!
Nice photos! I get a sense that the eyes of the stone angels give a shade of lifelessness ! And the last angel looks sad! Or is it just me?
Good Pics!
