Cenrtal Prison
I visited the central prison with a friend of mine today, it was total chaos with thousands of people visiting it. The crowds are uncontrollable and the police have little to do as the mobs are massive.
I suggest that any one interested in visiting the place be there by 8am in the morning when the crowds are less. Apparently the jail is going to be open for another month according a police man at the prison.
Things to take/note apart from you camera and safty
A hand cloth or mask to cover your nose (lotta dust comes out of the place due to the crowds).
Park below the bridge and walk rather than get on the bridge, take an auto rickshaw or bike and avoid cars.
Some photos below ...

TNA Perumal
Today I attended a talk by TNA Perumal at the Ghandi nagar club organised by the Photo society of Madras.
I must say that it was an excellent experience to see the legend speak.
Every photo taken by him is a piece of art that triggers an explosion of enthusiasm within you, I think he should be called TNT Perumal rather than TNA perumal for his explosive talent. He spoke about composition of photographs, wild life and so many other things and every bit was so interesting.
After attending his speech, one can only become his fan.
His passion for wild life photography is so inspiring, his knowledge about wildlife made me understand today that in-depth knowledge of subject is trivial for a good photo.
To quote some of the tit bits he gave us today
"Well being of the subject is more important than taking the photograph, especially when it comes to wild life"
"A good wild life photo is one in which the subject is shown in its natural habitat"
