Childhood Days

Portrays some children playing in a water-pool. 

More or less everyone is fond of their childhood. Everyone have good and bad memories of their infancy to Cherish. Those free independent days were most rich and amazing. However, in a country like India which is known for 'Joint Family' it become more amusing to live this age. In India, there are people having big blasting families with almost all relatives living together in big houses with lot of children doing almost everything together. 

These feelings of mine regarding childhood are very complex and it's very difficult to explain in just a few words. They are like moving pictures floating in my mind. I remember an incident from my school days, when my literature teacher was teaching a poem on childhood and in the beginning she asked every student what they feel from the word CHILDHOOD. After all the answers she received, she finally asked me for which i replied rather unprepared and unintentionally in that haste moment, "It's like a free Bird"........

My Blue City

Jodhpur City of Rajasthan is known as the Blue City, an apt name as most houses in the old city are shades of blue. It is an ancient summer treatment opted by the people as the Jodhpur is the most hottest city of Rajasthan during summers. People living here whitewash their houses mixed with indigo color, this treatment keeps the houses few degrees cooler in summers. This is particularly noticeable on the north side of the town, known as Brahmpuri. The view from Mehrangarh Fort is extremely beautiful it seems like blue colour is sprinkled from the sky on the city.

Ana Sagar Lake

Ana Sagar Lake is an artificial lake situated in the city of Ajmer, Rajasthan. It was built by Anaji Chauhan, the grandfather of Prithvi Raj Chauhan, in 1135 -1150 AD and is named after him. He built the landscape for the better cause of the society. Daulat Bagh, a garden laid out by Emperor Jahangar. Emperor Shah Jahan later added five pavilions, known as the Baradari, between the garden and the lake. The lake is spread over 13 Kilometers. There is a Circuit house on a hill near the lake that used to be British Residency. This is one of the beautiful lake in India.

Depth of the Eyes

Most of the area in Rajasthan has barren land which is unfavorable for Agriculture. Basically Marwar section of Rajasthan is known of its Desert however Jodhpur division is not fully desert ; Their are some parts where seasonal cultivation is done. So, peasants are very less in this area but the villagers who are traditionally settled here are earning their livings as Ranchers.

Rest & Peace

These Indian Monkeys are also known as Hanuman Langurs and they are most widespread in South Asia, These langurs are largely grey, with a black face and ears. Externally, the various species mainly differ in the darkness of the hands and feet, the overall color and the presence or absence of a crest. Gray langurs are herbivores but they do not depend on leaves and leaf buds of herbs, they eat also coniferous needles and cones, fruits and fruit buds, evergreen petioles, shoots and roots, seeds, grass, bamboo, fern rhizomes, mosses, and lichens. Grey Langurs are commonly found species of monkey in North India. These Monkeys are very trouble making and restless, they are rarely found relaxing that's why I titled the post 'Rest & Peace'.
