I’ve always been a dreamer — living in a world of my own creation. As a child, it didn’t matter what I’d be when I grew up. I discovered multiple worlds through books, imagination, and playacting. In my teens, the stars called out to me and I spent the next couple of years trying to…

As a kid, I wanted to be more like my older siblings. I wouldn’t say they are the bravest people that I’ve met, even if, back then, it did feel like they were my magical protectors and nothing (living or otherwise) could destroy them. Somehow, even as kids, they knew how to not let fear…

People and motion are the only two constants in a city. Everyone has to reach somewhere and everyone is in a hurry to get there. The fight to be the first is a rough one and rush hour does a brutal job of weeding out the weakest link. And where there’s motion — there’s noise.…

We’ve been following Ann-Christine from lagottecattleya for a while and I absolutely adore her work. Her pictures of enchanting forests and adorable animals are stunning! Few weeks back, we realised that we had a common idea for a post on cats and that’s when she nominated us for the 7 Day B&W Challenge. Ann’s been kind enough…

As a child, I’d look up at the sky and try to imagine what lies beyond the sea of blue. And, on occasion, even think, where did we all come from? As an adult, I often wonder, when someone asks me, where I come from, is it, who I am, is what they really want to…

“We should not teach children the sciences; but give them a taste for them.” Jean-Jacques Rousseau Growing up, I was lead to believe that science and art are two parallel disciplines, running alongside each other — never destined to meet. Perception plays an important role in what we believe and that in turn, influences our view…

H2O. It’s the magic formula, in which, two atoms of Hydrogen and one atom of Oxygen, bind together, to form a molecule of water. This week’s challenge takes me back to our college Chemistry lab, when we conducted experiments with acids, alkalies, and water. Honestly, I never really liked chemistry. Veering strongly towards Physics, I thought…
