Encounter with a baby Python in my garden

Image
Believe it or not, a 3-foot long baby snake entered our garden yesterday (27th Jan ' 2007) during noon when I went to pluck some hibiscus. I froze for 10 seconds not knowing what to do. I am lucky to be alive because I saw it first from its back. My instant reaction from then on was RUN............. I went back and wanted to create a commotion by informing my parents, sister, bro-in-law and the newborn nephew. Then I realized this was the best chance to become famous. Headed upstairs and took out my sister's Canon A540 and reached down very carefully without making any noise. But, by that time, everyone felt something fishy was happening. I couldn't resist and told them the news of a snake in the garden. And then BOOOOOOOOM! The 3W's and 1 H came out from everyone's mouth (Where, When, Whaaaaat, HOW). I shall describe the next events a little later....in the meanwhile take a look at the pics! http://www.flickr.com/photos/mogun23/sets/72157594504044284/detail/

Chocolate Wrappers While watching the Chennai open S/F tennis match on Saturday between the heartthrob Rafael Nadal & an unknown Malisse from Belgium, I suddenly realized that the chocolate box cognizant gave everybody had something catchy about it....uh not the choco, it was the colorful wrapping! What else do I need to start my macro-sessions! Enjoy the Macros....some did not come out well bcoz of poor-lighting and a dull white-base!
