Do all artist need an art Gallery



The other day in the city we visited many art galleries. All of it was spectacular! The places we went to and the work that we saw, what i couldn't get out from my mind was the little lane we went to! It was full of graffiti, there was this window i noticed there. Why i liked it...person who did this window may not even know if anyone caught the attention of it. It just stands there by itself, inside of a lane, surrounded by graffiti and not in any art gallery but it caught the attention of my camera. Its not me who captured the window, the window outside an art gallery captured my attention.

You've got mail !!!


Every day when i walk towards the institute and on my walk back, one think that catches my eye is the mail boxes. Mail boxes outside all the apartments/houses on my way. All stand there doing the same duty but they don't look the same! They tell me the age of the building where they stand and sometime even the age of the people living inside the homes there! All of the different than the other! Somewhere if the type of boxes were same they were they stand on different coloured bricks! Some looked stylish, some spic and span, some looked old! Some said no junk mail, some them self looked like junk.
The other day i couldn't stop myself and i had to tale pictures of them...share them with all!
They look nothing like no one has seen before, but i still felt like sharing them!
