A Peak from the Roads of Dooars : Down the Off-side













"THE LITTLE TOWN MIDST THE WOODS"

 The journey at Dooars brought little its and bits along with it as we started ascending the foothills of the great range through the deciduous foliage. One of those cherishable recollections was this small town midst the woody ranges. 
We had to halt at this area in order to reach our destination. At the marketplace of this town which is also supposed to be the last place where network is available, the rest of the trip is supposed to be with dead phones until you again retrieve back to the spot. Since, we did not have a charted plan to roam around, we instinctively decided to take the short hike towards the Buxa Fort from there which is around 5 km down the hilly road. The clicks of hiking towards through the forest and the mesmerizing beauty of the woods is in the last post of the 'Dooars Diaries'. 
A bit off-side from the busy route, amidst the forests, rests this small metropolis with its people living in harmony with the surrounding beings. Accepting the in-between interventions the occupants and the forests holds trust towards each other. There lies an immutable bond that the dwellers of this little town shares with the encircling mountains and woods. The unspoken binding between the two for over generations remains unaltered.

"CLiCK!"

              'Click!', the shutter goes off. I don't know what the sound of a shutter going off does to you, but to me it creates an insatiable feeling from inside that provokes me to live in "a" moment, a bit more closely. The lust for capturing the glimpse of an unrequited moment is kind of an addiction to me. Photography is something to me what morning coffee does to you or when the soft breeze touches your skin and piercing through it sways every nerve of your body. It is something through which I feel a bit more alive rather than just breathing. It is like I am born and reborn through that "one" shot of the camera. I find a new life in every picture clicked. I can crawl, I can roam around, I can fly and not care about anything but that particular instance and relive it once more for a split of a second. It makes me feel free. Through photography, I learn the effortless beauty of an occurrence. As it's said that a picture is worth a thousand wo...

The Innocent Whimsicality of Children

  "LITTLE ONES"     Over the years that I've lived, there's one thing that always remains a constant which I keep coming back to because it is worthy of it. The child inside me. Children are like dewdrops. They are truly these beautiful angelic beings who are incapable of nothing. They are themselves the beam of joy and bring the same to everyone surrounding them. They are always mischievous and running about their whims. You can catch them, but can never hold them back. And all the while, if I have learnt something from these little buddies, it has to be "the art of living".  To all of the children out there, take love. Children clicks. CANON EOS 1100D 09.01.2021
