This was my first attempt to street photography. I asked him if I could click his picture and I was overwhelmed with the response, each of them wanted to pose for me..I have a series coming up.
Oh yes and also I have used some portrait manipulation recommended by Babul from the site deviantart , Thanks

dotted flower

I don't know the name of this flower, but I liked the colours and pattern on it. sometimes I wonder how well we adapt to colors in nature, I am sure I have seen a dress or some clothes with similar colors and pattern.

strawberry my favourite

I found this pic in my database, one of the first ones taken by my nokia N73 I would admit the flash has kinda ruined it but I wanted to make it a B&W and coloured so tried my hands on this one.

Buck

spotted this one while experiencing Scotland. Localites advised us not to feed it and not to go near it coz one kick would land us in No mans land and it had thousands of ticks on it. but it looked so beautiful in the mountains, couldn't resist taking a pic of it. I've saturated the colours a bit.

Highland Cows

the famous Highland cows, I wish I could get the ones which look like yaks , I saw them when I din't have a camera. Nevertheless I got a shot of a mother and child while grazing

a sunny daffodil

This was clicked on my visit to the Highlands with my friend, I liked the sunshine from the background and the way the petals looked
