City is an interesting material for study.
It’s amazing to see our changing cityscapes!
The topography of South Indian states has drastically changed these days. Perhaps a result of North American companies realizing the profit of outsourcing work to Third world professionals. The cityscape has now been strewn with hoardings of the latest in mobile technology, banners of Desktop Printing kiosks, a competing range of internet cafés, huge hoardings, massive glass walled architectures and shopping malls….

Red burning flashes of gulmohar trees are beautiful to look at, but summer this time has been too cruel.
Eliot could not have been more right when he said April is the cruellest month.

Waiting for monsoon to set in……..Till then what other choice than to appreciate the colour of red flowers and taste of yellow mangoes!!
