Ex#1: Photo Feature - Romancing The Rains

Sorry about this delay, but here we go!

Just the mere mention of "rains" sets off a deluge of memories, emotions and images. For this, your first exercise, I want you to immerse/soak yourselves in the rains - literally and metaphorically. Take time to enjoy the monsoons exactly the way you would like to - alone or in company. Be aware how each of your senses responds - feel the wetness, taste the raindrops, smell the earth, etc. Try this at different times of day and night and see if your experience changes. Carry your camera (any kind) with you.

When you feel ready, pull out your camera and take a photograph which you think/feel captures the essence of the way you felt. Be mindful of the basics you have learned over the last four weeks. Focus, Lens, Shot size, Level, etc. Take a few photographs (best quality) over the next 3-4 days. Select and post any three (03) here in the order you want us to see them. Do not post any words describing the photographs or your experience.

Remember:
- write your name in the box titled "Post".
- write your name, Rains in the box titled "Labels". (eg: Ajay, Rains)
- post your third photograph first, etc so we see it in the correct order.
- deadline: 6pm sunday Aug 3rd 2014.
- make sure you see each and every post AND comment about what you liked or didn't like about the photographs.

Enjoy! - Ajay

PS: Pls have your doubts clarified and make no excuses for not doing the exercise :)
