Memory in the ruins of Delhi

Lovely skyline, sunny afternoon, breezy heights and company to complete the perfect afternoon.
Little peak into the history that lies in the backyards of expanding Delhi, peaceful and quiet tucked away into the oblivion with few frequenting the once bastions of power and the silent tomb that lies across the road.

We found a cozy turf on top overlooking the cityscape amid the blowing breeze and competing snarling traffic losing out. It was like traveling back in time but aware of the contrasting space that dots our urbanscape.

Click!Click! captured the time in mind while camera did the same in its visual details.

And there I was struggling to light my ciggy against the force of wind when he just did some odd perfect and it worked. Gave me some logic of science having done that.

He gets strangely fascinated with stray dogs, and there we had the whole puppy parlour, and almost always gets tempted to take them home. 

Time to get back to our maddening civilisation and crazy crowded routine. We were pooped and needed some coffee to awaken the sleepy minds and then back home to writing my blog post.

We are both making memories in our own ways he of the country and me of the company.
