My thoughts on Issac Asimov's The last Answer

Image
I am avid fan of both fictional reading and science. My collection mostly contains the Sci-Fi work. Science especially Sci-Fi brings out best of imaginations. Things happen in the work makes you wonder and can even give sleepless night. Isaac Asimov is my favorite when it comes to Sci-Fi. He was visionary and predictor in some sense and that’s why he is called the father of science fiction.  There are many great works of Asimov like Foundation Series, Galactic Empire series, Foundation Edge and Short Stories. Some of them even have Hollywood movies made on them. I Robot, is one of them. Recently, I came across one of his great work which I have read some time back but this masterpiece deserved to be read again and again. I am talking about the story - "The Last Answer" I want to make sure that I am not misunderstood. This is a review written by a fan, if you are not into Sci-Fi or Isaac Asimov, take it with a grain of salt. In this articl...

Bokeh: know how to enhance the image aesthetics, with this effect

Image
Professional photographers take such an out worldly amazing picture that makes me wonder about how these pictures are taken. I tried to surf and search on the internet and whole new stream of jargons popped up about lenses, camera, setup, lighting, props, aperture, exposure and what not.

And I could connect about what he said is related with different ads of mobiles coming up lately highlighting the dual camera or dual selfie camera. Frankly, why I need two cameras pointing in same direction to take same image? The answer lies in the word Bokeh. Though, I am no expert in photography but this is what I understood from my friend and lots of Blogs mentioned in the credit section. I have collated few important pointers from them. What is Bokeh Effect When you see an image with subject i...

AdiYogi Shiva: Feel the spiritual power

Image
The bliss of a feeling of nothingness, the void around me, when my mind was like an empty container with nothing but one thought of his, when there was no sense of individuality and yet feeling of direct connection with the one; with everyone around me and I still felt the inner silence; at this point of state, I felt the vastness, the power of his and my tininess. This kind of experience can make you humble, it certainly made me. The experience I wrote above is hard to attain and may need years of practice and meditation. However, my last year visit to Coimbatore’s one of the most spiritual place, famously known as Adi Yogi Shiva can jump start your spiritual experience. The whole surrounding, the aura in the air and the weather uniting together with Mantras (enchantments) created positive energy all around to make one feel cleansed, right through his soul. Concept Designed by Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, who is also the founder of Isha Foundation, Adi Yogi Shiva is a Bust St...
