Pictures and Humbug !

Off late,I've picked up a fascination for Instagram. Yes, the photography app that took the world by storm.
I have always been fond of photography and by this I don't mean getting my own pictures clicked. I love clicking pictures of landscapes, objects, people, situations and likewise.During my growing years I coaxed my dad into buying me a digital camera only because I loved photography.He went ahead and bought me a photography magazine too which had amazing tips on how pictures should be clicked.It also spoke about various themes to experiment with and freaky gadgets that rule the pictorial world.

Rule 1: You got to have an SLR.It gives you amazing effects and can even make a donkey look outstanding.
Rule 2: You got to have talent too.

However, having said all this, photography for us commoners is mostly restricted to self images or maybe food or maybe some nice scenery.It is rarely real talent which, I think, is alright. Not everyone is an artist and nor do they intend to be with their pictures.Talking about myself, I think I am an okay photographer.When it comes to handling the equipment I could improve a lot.Like by leaps.However, in the creative department of conceptualizing of what could make a good picture, I believe I'm good enough. I've got lots of ideas bobbing in my head and that's why Instagram! It's a nice app where I can click random pictures and post them. They won't be masterpieces but atleast I can click whatever I feel like and store them somewhere.So yeah, I'm excited.Owning an SLR is on my wishlist and I will soon cross that one out . I wish to click an amazing photo collection of landscapes someday and another of patterns created by light at uncommon places.Travelling around the world and clicking pictures would make another album and I'm already at it on that one ;)

So, yes, coming back to Instagram. In terms of functionality, it is an okay app with some effects you can apply to your photos.But, it has a lovely concept.A networking site only for pictures. Neat.

I really don't know how long I will last on it as I'm not good with networking sites at all.But while I'm here, let's have some fun :D

I 'Instagramed' a  few pictures off late and here they are: Tada !
