2 points of view [or, what does one do after SoFoBoMo is done?]
Posted in Photography, SoFoBoMo on Jun 21st, 2009
SoFoBoMo is done. Completed on 7th June. The excitement and fun of doing the project have been savoured and enjoyed. So, what does one do now? I re-look at the book critically and want to change a bunch of things. Remove some images, switch a few, add a few, change the layout and book design…. [...]

Posted in Black and White, Photography, SoFoBoMo on Jun 16th, 2009
Looking at the hits stats at my SoFoBoMo blog – the most hits are for the posts that contain phrases like “failure”, “quits”, “SoFoBoMo no-go”, “halt”, “nada” and not for “completed”, “hurray” etc… People look at things differently hmmm…. I guess.

Making the final selections and stringing them together with the help of a [...]

Posted in Bangladesh, Buriganga, Dhaka, Photography, SoFoBoMo, boat, river, street photography on Jun 6th, 2009
Day 4: The Jatrabari bridge across the Buriganga river. Drove out to try locate an aea where, apparently, the local Sarees in brightly dyed colors are hung out to dry. I’ve seen these before too and the image in my minds-eye was clear. I was expecting to come across brilliant fabrics in all colors and [...]
SoFoBoMo – day 3 [at the abandoned Rail Yard]
Posted in Bangladesh, Dhaka, Photography, SoFoBoMo, street photography on Jun 4th, 2009
Day 3 [at the abandoned Rail Yard]: A commonly used “by-pass” or short-cut to the airport from the city, passes along the rail tracks where many old rusting rail wagons have been used as temporary housing by the homeless… and small “bastis” or make-shift homes made from bamboo, plastic sheeting and thatch had sprung up [...]
SoFoBoMo [restart] – day 2
Posted in Bangladesh, Dhaka, Photography, SoFoBoMo, street photography on Jun 3rd, 2009
Day 2: The chicken market in Dhaka’s Karwan Bazar area. This market is wholesale veggies, fruit, chicken, goats…. and probably some spices… not sure. Vendors crushing fresh sugarcane for thirsty workers, the sherbet-sellers doing brisk business, “paan” and cigarette vendors carrying trays of their wares slung from straps around their necks. A busy place. And [...]
