The colourful world

Its great to be back. I want to take care of my much neglected blog. This is a feature I want to add to my P&A journal. The colours of Life . Have you noticed the colours around you. I am a person from colourful India living in B&W Zurich. People here wear so much Black or grey it is amazing. My father actually thought this is some kind of dress code here .:))

So you can imagine I am always on the lookout of colours around. This is from the local Indian store . Totally fell for the bright and cheerful colours.

My Travel adventures

I know I haven't been posting for a long time over here. Just to inform you I also write my travel adventures on my creative and personal blog Peazcreation. and sometimes on my design blog Chitra-Karma. I also will try to update this one too.

Colorful Balconies

I haven’t been posting here lately . But I have decided to post more often.
This picture is of a office in Zürich . What caught my eyes was the beautiful red shot spray of colour in the 3 balconies. In the autumn season when all the leaves are falling down this is a wonderful sight to look at.

With love from Russia

I grew up reading Russian classics and Folk tales, and short stories . I always found Russia to a mysterious place or sometimes a wonderland . So no doubt I was jumping with joy when my husband -A had to go there. Though I didnot join him ( maybe some other time),I made sure that he took a lot of photos and sees as much of Moscow as he could after work. Having a friend there truly helped.

So here are some lovely photos with love from Moscow,Russia.

Triumph Arch build to commemorate the victory of Russia in the Patriotic War against French Emperor Napoleon in 1812.

Peter the Great Monument Also known as The Monument “300 years of The Russian Navy .

St. Basil s Cathedral on Red Square, considered to be a true symbol of Russia and an integral part of Moscow scenery, is one of the most remarkable monuments and the supreme achievement of ancient architecture of the capital.

Dallas Arboretum / Botanical Garden

I was recently in USA. While I was in Dallas I went to the Botanical Garden. The tulip festival was on. The Garden was full of mind blowing varieties of tulips and other beautiful flowers. The flamboyant colors and the vivid shades of the display was so exciting. My new camera was able to capture all the beauty of the flowers.

Waterfall Aviary, (the world's tallest waterfall)Singapore

The Jurong Bird Park is home for amazing 9,000 colorful birds of 600 species . The park is truly breathtaking and is the largest bird park in the Asia Pacific, covering over 50 acres (20 hectares). But I want to write in this Blog is the world’s highest man made waterfall- Waterfall Aviary. The way to the waterfall was like in the jungle . It is small pathway with trees arching over the head and birds eating the fruits and tweeting in complete harmony and peace. We could hear the gushing sound and melody of the water falling near by. We passed a Bridge to see from the trees the beautiful sight of the waterfall. It is 30 meters(98 feet) high and made in such a way that it is hard to digest that it is not natural in the first sight.
As a nature lover I was amazed by how Singapore , a city with lack of natural resources overcome its weakness by being the garden city and build the nature in a manner that it looks as if the city was always green. Singapore has capitalized on the energy, enterprise and human skills . This is a city where the first impression is that of man’s achievements .
While most countries are cutting trees and destroying the nature in the name of development and blaming each other for the pollution, Singapore is one place where without any natural resources where the people have made it a green place.
