Wanted to share with you some common photography rulez.

1. You need to turn the camera on and hand it over exactly like you want it held
2. If you want to be in picture, it's your responsibility to position accordingly
3. If you want portrait pic, you come closer
4. If you want long shot, you move farther
5. If you want special effects, you can step into sunlight, you can go into shadow. Its upto you.
6. You can ask if the pic came out well, the answer is for you to find out. Sometimes you may not even be in the pic or sometimes a part of you is missing. That's technique, modern art you see!

All said and done, some of my best clicks for saree drapes are by this photographer. Today is an exception though. Photographer is in bad mood and refused clicking pics. Hotha hai. Not all days are sunny, not all fingers are even. So, I went back to get help from my old friends - my mobile phone on timer mode mounted on a tripod. Apna haath jagannath! This is a self assembled modal silk ajrakh saree. I was experimenting and chose three different blouse fabrics to be stitched as saree. The pallu has tassels of 10 paise coins (the lady who helped me get this done was kind enough to get me a matching neckpiece with 10 paise coins). And for a change teamed it with a black kurti.
