Sea Sands Séance

My Sea Sands buddy Sai suggested that I add some childhood photos to my blog. So, I am adding a few photos that I found in my recent (March 2008) Vizag trip. These are of low resolution to begin with, and now they show the signs of aging (naturally, like the subjects in them!). My dad collected lots of photos, and I brought only few of them with me.

At Marine Biology building. Looking at Chandu then (ఫని గాడి ఒళ్ళొ) and now, we sure aged a bit!
at MBL, nothing better to do, as usual
With so much parking (of butts), this concrete block probably eroded about six inches.

We shot lots of pictures this day, running around Vuda Park, R.K. Beach, etc. in a big hurry! It was like క్షణం తీరిక లేదు, దమ్మిడి ఆదాయం లేదు!

We were experimenting to find if we could take good pictures even with direct incidence of light on the lens! It didn't work this time:-)

Obviously, photography was not one of our strengths


Exploration for groundwater at Somandepalli near Ananthapur, with Geological Survey of India folks. We spent about a month there in 1988 (in the field, in tents) looking for water, as a part of final year Geophysics project.
