A minute with ClicksandWrites – Working together works
Ants have always fascinated me. In my childhood days, my grandmother used to say, any intense activity you see among the ants in the surrounding, you can expect a sudden weather change. There is lot to learn from them. Discipline, Team Work, Anticipating and saving for the future are some among them.
True, we have to always keep an eye and learn something new every day, even from the smallest of creatures living or non-living in this world.
Certainly, Working Together Works!.
By the way, it was not easy to stay where I was and click this set of Citronella ants. Those who know them will understand better!.

Mind Speaks : Life As I See
Life As I See
I was scanning my archives for a set of old photos and suddenly this particular photo came up. It was from a recent series of click that I had made while visiting a village close to Whitefield in Bangalore. The house reminded me of my college days in Madras. A one bed room sharing accommodation that me and my friends took. It was a very small facility with bathroom, kitchen, our beds, study everything combined and congested into the small space that was available. Even with all the limitations, it was a luxury for us and of course many. Life during that time, we made it as lively as possible. During class time we studied, but during evenings we did not miss out on any enjoyment opportunities that either came on our way or we created. Cycling, biking, movies, long rides… so many things done during those days where brought back with one look at this house in a totally dilapidated condition. It was serious business as well as fun to meet our limited budget and stay outside the hostel and live a life King Size, as the famous tobacco ad during those time promoted!
Life goes on!
A Passionate Photographers Friday Morning

Friday morning for most of the expats are time to sleep long and wake up late. However, for some of us, it is another morning to use efficiently and effectively for community service and passion.
Early morning food preparation for participating in the food distribution project and then off to distribute it. This morning, I thought, why not combine it with one of my favorite activities, i.e cycling.
No second thoughts. Off without any delay on my cycle. How can I go anywhere, without my camera. Obviously, it was with me when I started to ride.
Abu Dhabi, on a Friday morning is really quite and beautiful to capture. There is an air of silence and serenity everywhere.
I had experienced it many times as I find the early morning hours are the best to go for a solo photography ride.
It is the start of summer and the palm trees are getting ready to ripen! A closer look and I good witness the reminiscence of a Premier League that might have happened yesterday evening!. Have a closer look and many of you might recollect and remember your childhood days when you played cricket with the leaf base of coconut tree!.
Clicking along, I continued my ride. Another weekend, another opportunity to continue my passion not missing an opportunity to serve the community.
Classical Dance performance by Prateeksha Kashi

Happy to see the amazing classical performance of Prateeksha Kashi for Soorya Festival 2016 held at India Social and Cultural Centre Abu Dhabi. The event was organised by UAE Exchange. Well done.
