And that’s not it! I was on Times of India too! That’s a huge thing for me :D We are a group on Flickr called Bangalore Photo Walk (BPW) and we host weekend photo walks in and around Bangalore. I happened to contact Nirmala, a journal at TOI and introduced our BPW group to her. She shared all the details with the Editor and the Editor asked me to form a group of 6 and asked the 6 of us go to different places in Bangalore and capture some interesting shots at the same time. In the sense, we were supposed to go to different places individually and click some shots at one particular (same) time. The time and the place was all our choice. So, we planned on it and decided to go on 23rd July, 2009 (It was my mom’s birthday that day :) ). We started our walk at 10:30am in the morning and completed it by 12 noon. Unfortunately, one out of the 6 dropped coz of unavoidable conditions and we were only 5 of us.

Joel, you alive? Yes!!!

Yes, I am alive. It’s been a long time since I blogged last. I know. Forget that, it’s been ages since I logged in to my dashboard. No wonder, there are hundreds of comments awaiting for my approval :P #lazy

(Checking my last blog post) 23rd April, a month!?? 2 months!? (Thanks @9_6 for pointing out that mistake :) ) God! That’s really a long time. But, what’s keeping me away from blogging? Work, Twitter and again work!

Earlier, I had mentioned something about business firm and all. Well, this is one of the main reason that’s keeping me away. Hell loads of things to do and a BIG deal right on it’s way :D Hope it’s a DEAL! :D

Secondly, I am very active on Twitter now a days :) Had stopped twitting a while but now I am addicted again :D It’s fun. You can follow me here and if you (still) don’t have a #Twitter account the better go get one. I’m sure you’ll love it :) @Twitter, a micro-blogging service, has kind of replaced (macro) blogging for me but I’ll never leave blogging. Will keep updating this space too :) #awesomeness
