Nothing like a Himalayan dusk to make you inhale sharply. Is there?

By the way, hands up those who know the ditty behind the title of this post. 🙂

Sigh. So yum. I’ve always loved his hands.

In an age of glitzy, celebrity-connected, sometimes creative and often ridiculously overpriced designers, I feel compelled to shout out to the real mccoy, the original darzi. And much as I love my own designer (big love, Swarna!), I’m glad I bumped into him, hard at work, one winter morning in Pragpur.

I’m quite keen on the Impressionists. That woman you saw floating two inches off the floor in rooms 43-47 of the National Gallery in early June this year? That was me.

So this picture taken at St. James’ Park in May particularly thrilled me. Doesn’t it look a teensy bit similar to Impression, Sunrise?

Doesn’t it, doesn’t it?

(This is where you humor me.)

You guys are the best! :mrgreen:

Okthanksbye.

As daylight doth a lamp; her eyes in heaven
Would through the airy region stream so bright
That birds would sing and think it were not night.

You are the Light

And the Rock

Capped with the gentleness of doves

And infinitely more beautiful.

Happy 64th, you saint among men.
