Matrix Recalled

Strawberry

Yesterday we were invited to a cocktail party which was supposed to have *the* who’s who of city’s business community. (Un)fortunately despite the best intentions of our gracious host at introductions most of the time we were kind of “Who?”  but the food was very very nice and the service excellent. So sitting in relative anonymity we played our little impromptu game of “Which Matrix character is this person?”  It was prompted by several young men attired in long front open dark sherwani. The funniest was all the waiters (in their similar double breasted suits) were “Agent Smith”, and yeah Trinity was FAT 🙂

We came back around midnight and watched “Chameli”,  liked the movie – for once Kareena has acted rather than just looking pretty,  having worked in Forensic medicine I could identify with the sob stories she feeds and the real pathos beneath that defiance of a street walker….

Aasim had opted to say with his Nani, in fact he stayed over for most of today as well…

Did a bit of photography in the morning. Have added some more lights to my collection of studio equipments for my white Bodyscapes basically tungsten bulbs of higher wattages. Need to start experimenting with more than one or two lights lighting a single scene. Also need to figure out a good way to hang the backdrops.

The afternoon was spent lazying around the house.

The evening was planned for visiting some heritage expo BUT we finally chickened out and spending the time home…

  • Your White Bodyscapes are Deliteful really! B&W has its own charm!

    One lil thought:

    Why not use a semi-transparent (rolls of marble chiffon?)
    to drape la dame?

    The idea i suppose, is not to hide the sckeen completely but to subtly suggest it.

    • Thank you – The idea in this shoot was to just suggest the form of the body and not show it….

  • Knock! Knock!

    Can I add you to my friends list?!

    • Sorry I had misssed this comment somehow and not replied – Sure go ahead and add me in your friends list, I am doing the same

      • I’ve just added you. Thank You! 🙂

  • OMG!
