Here’s a nice photo I clicked during a recent sunset. I am beginning to use more features of my D50 now. Just being able to experiment and see the results instantly is the most awesome thing.

For this photo I used spot metering to get the orange sky just right and post-processed the RAW in Adobe Lightroom. Lightroom too is an amazing piece of software and, since it is in Beta, totally free! Give it a shot.

ISB’s lush green campus is full of wonders of nature (both of the human and non-human kind! ;-))

I’ve been clicking away and have quite a collection of peacocks, butterflies, birds and flowers.

Here’s my Flickr set of Flora and Fauna @ ISB.

Check it out and please do give me your feedback on the pics!

Lots of people here at ISB keep joking that I take my camera to the loo too 🙁

But my reply to that – See this pic which won the “Wildlife on Campus” photo contest!!! 😀

This was a great shot I got while returning from class one day. This bird kept posing for me as tried composing this from a couple of angles.

The sky here is usually quite blue and clear so I’ve been getting great shots.

See the picture on Flickr – SV at sunset

A nice sunset casting its glow on our Student Village tower.

ISB has 3 student villages which house all the students (418 of us in my batch!) The villages have quads (shared accomodation for 4 students) and studio apartments (not what the Americans call a studio – it has a bedroom, a living room and a kitchen, for married students.)

Each SV has a slightly different layout. SV 2 & 3 have mirror pools (which are rarely filled!) and SV1 has a rock garden. SV1 (built the latest – don’t ask why the reverse numbering) also houses the most students.

Overall, the amenities are great. House-keeping comes over daily, so even the messiest of us have clean rooms! Hyderabad has great weather and its nice sitting outside near the mirror pool on in a balcony working on your assignments or surfing the Net (the ubiquitious Wi-Fi network ensures you are always connected!)

Cloudy day

Here’s another nice day on the campus and gives a feel of the nature all around.

(I was trying to get some sunray’s that were there a moment ago…but by the time I clicked they were gone 🙁 )
