Never would I have imagined posting pics of disinfectant but this is the reality of lockdown. My day begins with a cup of tea, taking my temperature, disinfecting the work surfaces and door/drawer handles followed by a shower. Warning: DO NOT drink this!
Choices and Daily Rituals
Story:
I see them daily, following the same routine, saying the same things, and living the same day repeatedly. They take identical pictures and check their reflections on every surface. The world is vast, full of opportunities and choices, but they, like me, wear dark glasses as they go through life. I wish I could shake myself and realise the chances I'm missing, but I'm in a trance, convinced that this narrow path is all there is. Existence keeps moving on, and it pains me that I can't see past the capital waste. We could achieve so much if we didn't sit on the fence and merely comment on each other. But here I am, watching this play with the spectators, where the power to change the script is on the tip of our tongues, yet we decide not to say it.
Description:
Dive into the profound narrative of life in repetition, where each day mirrors the last. This exploration goes beyond the surface, questioning the comfort of routine and the opportunities that whisper for attention. It's a call to recognise the vastness of life's stage and our power to change the script that shapes our existence.

Kolkata /koʊlˈkɑːtɑː/, formerly Calcutta /kælˈkʌtə/, is the capital of the Indian state of West Bengal. Located on the east bank of the Hooghly river, it is the principal commercial, cultural, and educational centre of East India, while the Port of Kolkata is India's oldest operating port as well as its sole major riverine port. As of 2011, the city had 4.5 million residents; the urban agglomeration, which comprises the city and its suburbs, was home to approximately 14.1 million, making it the third-most populous metropolitan area in India. As of 2008, its economic output as measured by gross domestic product ranked third among South Asian cities, behind Mumbai and Delhi. As a growing metropolitan city in a developing country, Kolkata confronts substantial urban pollution, traffic congestion, poverty, overpopulation, and other logistic and socioeconomic problems.
In the late 17th century, the three villages that predated Kolkata were ruled by the Nawab of Bengal under Mughal suzerainty. After the Nawab granted the East India Company a trading license in 1690, the area was developed by the Company into an increasingly fortified mercantile base. Nawab Siraj ud-Daulah occupied Kolkata in 1756 after company started evading taxes and due to increasing militarization of the fort, the East India Company retook it in the following year and in 1793 assumed full sovereignty after Mughal governorship (Nizamat) was abolished. Under East India Company and later under the British Raj, Kolkata served as the capital of India until 1911, when its perceived geographical disadvantages, combined with growing nationalism in Bengal, led to a shift of the capital to New Delhi. The city was the centre of the Indian independence movement; it remains a hotbed of contemporary state politics. Following Indian independence in 1947, Kolkata—which was once the centre of modern Indian education, science, culture, and politics—witnessed several decades of relative economic stagnation. Since the early 2000s, an economic rejuvenation has led to accelerated growth.
As a nucleus of the 19th- and early 20th-century Bengal Renaissance and a religiously and ethnically diverse centre of culture in Bengal and India, Kolkata has established local traditions in drama, art, film, theatre, and literature that have gained wide audiences. Many people from Kolkata—among them several Nobel laureates—have contributed to the arts, the sciences, and other areas, while Kolkata culture features idiosyncrasies that include distinctively close-knit neighbourhoods (paras) and freestyle intellectual exchanges (adda). West Bengal's share of the Bengali film industry is based in the city, which also hosts venerable cultural institutions of national importance, such as the Academy of Fine Arts, the Victoria Memorial, the Asiatic Society, the Indian Museum and the National Library of India. Among scientific and technical institutions, Kolkata hosts the Agri Horticultural Society of India, the Geological Survey of India, the Botanical Survey of India, the Indian Science Congress Association, the Zoological Survey of India, the Institution of Engineers and the Anthropological Survey of India. Though home to major cricketing venues and franchises, Kolkata differs from other Indian cities by giving importance to association football and other sports.
in the stretched silence of the markethall of cabanyal, there sits a figure, draped in the day's fading light. he occupies the frame with an ease only found at the day's end, his phone a modern tether to unseen words. the stalls, now barren, echo a day's bustling commerce, standing as silent sentinels to the daily ebb and flow of market life. there's a tranquility here, in the convergence of solitude and cessation, where the man and the market both pause, in mutual reprieve, under the watchful glow of the fluorescent guardians.
Week 2 in the 'Slice of Life' project - Our Daily Routine - making a cup of green tea every morning.
A photosequence for... a university project once again :P in which I depict the daily routine seen on feet...
Every day I try to do something exra in the household,
but sometimes it happens when I'm vacuum cleaning
I forget what I was doing and start singing out loud the song
that's playing through the speakers :-)

Ever since being pregnant with and having my third child (who is now 18 months old), exercise has been at the very bottom of my to do list. I have many other things that I would rather do and ultimately take priority. But I've decided that I need to get back on the wagon and make exercise a part of my daily routine. I ordered several Jillian Michaels videos and oh my....the muscles are burning!

I have been doing a daily photography project for 8 straight years. That's 2,823 days so far - and I haven't missed a day! I follow along with a group that provides daily prompts to give me direction on what to shoot each day. They also give instruction on various photography "rules" and techniques. As a self taught photographer, I have learned so much doing this daily. Adding 52 Frames to my weekly routine has just increased the learning!
... e uscire presto dall'ufficio per far la spesa all'esselunga, e andare a prendere la macchina, e andare a prendere i bambini al parco che poi la babysitter se fai tardi si lamenta, e portare i bambini a nuoto, e trovare parcheggio, e andare a prendere i bambini, e trovare di nuovo parcheggio, e cucinare, e mangiare, e metterli a letto, e mettersi a letto che domattina è qui che arriva.

Growing up, my mom would use the Wedgwood China only for special occasions. I use them everyday.
