Morning Matinee

On some days, photographs just fall into place - in ways that one could not plan for. There is a sense of ebullience as the concept seems novel.
This post is about my rendezvous with a spirited bunch of kids engaged in a game of football in the sprawling lawns of Cubbon Park. What started out as an attempt to capture them kicking the ball around, ended up being an elaborate odyssey unraveling many facets of their creativity. I almost had no part to play in determining the outcome of each picture. It was a display of perfect execution of the thoughts that struck their mind.
All credit to this awesome five some who are the mind and body behind this post. My camera was just a means to capture their imaginative ideas.


Meet Piyush, Akshay, Naresh, Chetan and Nitin



I believe I can fly.....



We will... We will... Rock you!



Birds of a feather flock together!



Ideas won't work unless you do...



Hand in hand we stand....
