Bengal Bioscope : Dhunachi


Dhunachi, an incense burner ; an integral part of a Bengali puja. The smoke is produced by burning choir and frankincense (dhuno/resin) . Earthen dhunachi (pot) is more popular in the households than pots made of brass. During Durga Puja, 'dhunachi-naach' ( free-style dance with dhunachi) is a common event conducted by puja pandals in the evening.

Top 20 photos taken by Moto G (2nd Gen)


I am using MotoG 2nd generation since October 2014.  While buying the mobile, I was comparing a couple of hardware features, those were rear/primary camera and battery life . My budget was fixed at INR 20000, which left me to choose either Moto G (2nd Gen ) or iphone 4S (as per my favorable criteria). However in between the range of fifteen to twenty thousands , there were options from Samsung but didn't consider as I felt those lacked in sense of sharpening of an image.
Since I was looking for a budget phone, never expected a great detailing on a low-light shot. With Moto G2 , I am using the google camera and I feel it is great value for money after using its 8 MP primary lens.

Here are my top 20 Photos that I have taken over the last six months with Moto G (2nd Gen) sans filter  :

A Sunday afternoon walk


 After a sumptuous lunch at Chimpu da's place this weekend , we planned to walk down the Sarovar road to reach a theater near by. Rabindra Sarovar (Lake) which is adjacent to his apartment is a bliss to morning walkers and joggers in South Kolkata. Even we went there once , however, wasn't able take to the pain of  rising so early. Whenever I have been there always found it to be crowded but this Sunday it was left alone. Thanks to the culture of 'bhaat ghoom ' (siesta) in Bengal . Another reason ,could be cleaning treatment, undergoing in this piece of wetland these days.
