Thoughts !

The girl appears to be lost in deep thoughts. I like this particular picture which was taken in San Jose Downtown in April 2009.

Sweat it out !

There is nothing relaxing then getting yourself to sweat after some physical activity and feeling the sweet pain of the exerted muscles. In my lifetime I have decided that I will set aside one full year where workouts and custom diet will be the theme. This is one thing in my to do list which I am chalking out for the life ahead. This picture was shot in Rancho San Antonio sometime in April 2009. Sweat it out and stay fit .. Health is wealth !!

Highway 1

The drive on the winding roads along the Pacific coastline is a dreamy scenic experience. The pictures were taken in May 2009 and are given a RGB boost to accentuate the brilliant colours of nature.
