Looking Back…

I was looking at my attempts to take a self portrait (for my last post) and remembered this blog in which the author uploaded a new self portrait every day. I thought about it and thought that the idea was cool and i should probably try something similar.

Well my photography skills leave a lot to be desired so a photo everyday is just going to be pointless. So I thought how bout one every month. This works out well coz most of my friends are mostly out of the country and ppl wont forget how I look, actually its going to be easier for ppl from whom I borrowed stuff from :P The second advantage is I will have this catalog of photos of how I looked at different times :P

Anyway this is just a silly experiment. I will put the photo behind a cut to protect you from the bad out of focus photos :P

So, here is the one for Dec 2008 :)

Moments – Tobacco, Coffee and Light…

Dried Tobacco

One of my first time experiences during my last trip was chewing tobacco. I have always been open to new experiences and when the cup of tobacco was presented in front of me, it was an opportunity too good to be passed off.

Tobacco is really bitter and dries up your throat within seconds of chewing. They say its good for the throat, in small quantities ofcourse. Anyway the next time the opportunity presents its self, I will stand on the sidelines and wave :P
