Tirupati Trip- A Photo Essay

My quick, 2 day trip to Tirupati was eye-opening in a lot of ways. I went to spend more time with myself, take some time off from all external influences and for once, live a poor man. About that, later. But with a camera in hand, and an open mind, it was one awesome clicking experience. The idea of compiling all the photos and working on it didn't strike me until I almost made my way back home. Anyway, this is the best of what I could do with the pictures I took. Clicked by my meager Olympus Camedia C-170 and edited in Picasa 3.

I'm a photography freak...I know I'm not really good but I try to churn out "masterpieces" ;)
So, I click these everyday pictures randomly and edit 'em and try to make 'em luk "wow! dat's beauuutiful" types :P...
Photography is all about finding beauty in normal things in life than try to find something extraordinary.. isn't it?...
