"Navatara" translates "River Life" and our pool is built long
and narrow like a river. Just inside the six buildings of
Navatara, a boardwalk encircles the entire pool area and
includes a large fitness center at one end and a lily pond at
the other. Every day I spend about 20 minutes walking a number
of times around this boardwalk. I always take my phone camera
with me and I am constantly on the lookout for good photographs,
. If I find something I really like that I think will still be
there five minutes from now, I run upstairs and get my
professional equipment. So some of these photos were taken with
my phone, some of them with my camera ( I will leave you to
guess which ones are which, and see if you can tell the
difference.) Many of these photos were captured exactly as I
found them, while others I composed by liftng the flower off the
boardwalk and finding a new location for it. In no case,
however, did I pick the flowers. The same concept is true
throughout my website. I never pick flowers, nor do I pick
colored leaves off of the trees.
Above: This palm branch fell from the trees onto our boardwalk.
I didn't touch the branch and photographed it exactly as I found
it, though I don't know if this where it originally fell. The
maids may have already picked it up and then set it down here
temporarily before removing it from the pool area. |
