Kashmir


The water in Kashmir is magic, believed to have healing properties.

Jamaal Bhai, a man of the earth tending to his garden or it tending to him. "We're both growing in the rain" he said to me with his silent smile.

On a walk into the next valley, there will be more about this!


On the Dal :)


I've been avoiding this post because i had no idea where to begin. But the longer i took, the harder it got. So i figured i could start with just putting up some of the pictures.
About the photographs, there's only so much a camera can do when you're in the Himalayas. And i know that they're only going to be able to give one a glimmer of what is. But i hope this glimmer does for you what it does for me :)

In the beginning there was light

Haan, so i've started blogging.
And i have Shilo to thank for twisting my arm and patting my back into it.
I feel like a five year old with a shiny new toy.
So here goes!

Insane in the Membrane







From the 'Mouse on Mars' gig last year at Max Mueller Bhavan

Chasing Light

Last October my mother won a holiday to Goa. She seems to be pretty good at this business, it's about the seventh one we've won. So we drove up and as we did the rain came down. For the next week, the sky, the sea and the land were all water. It was a Goa that none of us had ever experienced but turned out incredible. Each footstep became an instant puddle and every shell a little cuddle :)
