तसं आपलं डोस्कं तिरकं फिट झालंय. तिरसटपणा बद्दल लिहायचंच झालं तर आपन ज्यादा पुरवणी मागून घेऊ. पुण्यात आल्यापासून जरा तिरसटपणा वाढला असावा.
आज-काल शंत्या काहीही विचारायच्या आधी विचारतो, तू सिरीय्स्ली उत्तर देणार असशील तर विचारतो.
काही बॉलच असे असतात कि त्यांना संण्कुन्न बॉउंड्री पलीकडे करून टाकावं अशी एकाच इच्छा मनात येते. तसाच एखादा प्रश्न असा येतो, कि त्याला बॉउंड्री दाखवल्या शिवाय उत्तर देण्याची मज्जा राहत नाही.
मुंबईत असतांना मित्रांचे फोने आले की . हाल हवाल पुसतात, कधी येणार अशे काही विषय तोंडी लाऊन, मग मुद्द्याचं बोलू लागतात. परवाच एका मित्राने विचारलं -
"और मुंबई में गर्मी - वर्मी कैसी है?" आपन्न लगेच उत्तर घेऊन हाझर.आज-काल शंत्या काहीही विचारायच्या आधी विचारतो, तू सिरीय्स्ली उत्तर देणार असशील तर विचारतो.

असाच एक किस्सा परवा दिवशी झाला. जसं मनात येईल तसं माझ्यातला "gangster" जागा होतो, मग "अप्पान लई तिरक्या ..डोक्याचे"

Its wonderful.....how humans react when jolted in a sudden adverse spot. I think there is something that directs 200% energy to their mind and the will to survive takes over like a rapid action force!! The end result is hardcore surviors - who are better equipped to face the future!!

Photographing a drop

There's nothing as boring as a Sunday afternoon. After a filling lunch, partially suspended in drowsiness. You can just utilise the "hangover" to photograph a drop.
While considering this topic through the Physics point of view - we can call it "Fluid Dynamics"
Getting back to the topic.
Capturing a drop crashing down on the mass of water and then bouncing up with the denominator, repeating the bounces 2-4 times before it sinks into the waves with a black hole in the centre.
First of all you ouhgt to know some basic terminology :
1.Apperture - Click here
2.Shutterspeed - Click here
Now that, we're conceptually progressed we can start off with our assignment.
Requirements:
Few things need to be set up, so as to favour our photograph. Like a dripper (can be one IV set too ;)...........I used a plastic bag, with a hole peirced at its base.) An external source of white light can also pose to be helpful. Remember if your hand is shaky you should take help of a tripod. Chartpapers to define your background. Tissues to wipe off the unwanted water drops holding on to the borosil bowl. Do not forget a ruler.
On your Mark's, Get Set, Click!!:
Before you start clicking, immerse the ruler in the bowl. Place it in the centre of the bowl (where the drip is suspended) Focus your camera accordingly on the ruler.
Here comes the role of patience. While you are set with the angle, the light is perfect and the drop is meticulously regulated patiently watch the drop through your view finder for a while. No hastes to hit the "click". As you get accustomed to the frequency between the two drops, decide which moment is yours.....
Hit the click, may be the first photograph is not the one you wanted.
Lets check what's your shutter speed and apperture.
Usually when I clicked the photograph > I tried clicking the photographs from the range of
Shutter speed : 320 to 630
Aperture : 5.0 to 7.0
I think letting out the perfect setting of the shutter speed and aperture will kill away the fun of patience and later the sense of achievement after clicking it :)
A small handy tip: If you are using a flash try to cover your flash with a thin butter paper, this can help you reduce the harshness of the flash on the droplet.
Click! ;)

A new series, where I'll be posting the "unnoticed" action that made me smile!
Mumbai: Link Road: 0910 hours.
A bunch of 8-10 years old kids were waiting to cross the road. One of them held a Cricket bat in his hands. As the space bubble arrived between the vehicles, the lad hopped a few steps and taking a stance on his front foot, swinged his bat in the air! His Imaginary ball had crossed the boundary line.
By the time he had crossed the road. Now he was busy waving his bat in the air, just like Sachin Tendulkar waves his bat after his century!
