The ceiling of the new integrated terminal is adorned with works by Rabindranath Tagore. Both landscape and architecture designs are an abstract reference to the writing of Rabindranath Tagore of Bengal( Noble laureate 1913), with symbolized scripts adorning the airport and the internal courtyards. They are Bengali alphabets and words on the ceiling.
The airport's new integrated terminal T2 as you can see is spread over 233,000 m2 (2,510,000 sq ft) and can handle 25 million passengers annually, compared to the previous terminal T1's capacity of five million.

Rabindranath Tagore’s 1933 Humber bearing registration number WBA 8689 kept in a glass enclosure at Visva Bharati University in Santiniketan.
The 1933 Humber was perhaps the only car that Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore ever called his own. He loved the car and used it till his last days. Beside the bard, this historic car has had illustrious passengers like Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, Mahatma Gandhi, Acharya Jagadish Chandra Bose and Jawaharlal Nehru. Power Drive uncovers the tale of the Humber.
In the year 1938, Rabindranath Tagore’s eldest son and the first Upacharya of Visva Bharati – Rathindranath Tagore returned from the United States after completing his studies in Agricultural Science from Illinois. In the same year, Rathindranath purchased a pair of 1933 Humber sedans from HH Lilley, Rootes Ltd, which was the only Humber dealer for the whole of India, Burma and Ceylon. Its showroom stood at 42 Park Street in Calcutta. Rathindranath purchased these cars for 400 pounds each (approximately Rs 5300 in 1938). One of these two cars was kept at Tagore’s ancestral home in Jorasankho in north Calcutta, while the other was taken to Visva Bharati in Santiniketan.
Other mechanical innovations that featured in this car included:
A mechanical fuel pump
Radiator shutters operated by thermostat in the header tank
Engine and gearbox in one unit with silent-bloc trunnion mountings
A starter motor with 2-to-1 drive to ensure that the engine was spun rapidly when cold
A new frame with deep-section sides had an extra stiff and deep triangulated cross member in the middle
Suspension was, of course, non-independent with beam axles and half-elliptic springs
A new down draught carburetor.
I am dying to melt with you but I am stranded on the other shore of the bayou. My wings of hope are feeble and will not carry me across this impasse. My ineptness pleads you, O song of my soul, fly! Fly towards me and my desolated core. Let me bathe in the grandeur of your rhythm and radiance. Let the tickle of life in my veins rejuvenate in your melody. In your embrace lies my pious liberation. Lift me from the prostrate and aid me sing. I need a song. I need you.
PS: I have been reading Geetanjali and my superhero has conquered my imagination all over again. I do not know anymore if the words above are mine or his. Please bear with me.

"The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough."
Rabindranath Tagore
This is a re-composition of a shot from the summer where I was trying to get the butterfly small in a bigger scene. In this version I've tried to remove some of the grass to leave this little brown argus in a sea of light and colour. I remember that getting this shot was quite testing - there was a slight breeze that was moving the brown argus about quite a lot which meant it was constantly moving in and out of focus - what a hardship eh? (sitting in a wildflower meadow photographing butterflies on a summer morning)

No longer to carry rain or usher storm,

Thanks jcqsmer !
If thou speakest not
I will fill my heart with thy silence
and endure it.
I will keep still
and wait like the night
with starry vigil
and its head bent low with patience.

Distant Time
I know not from what distant time
thou art ever coming nearer to meet me.
Thy sun and stars can never
keep thee hidden from me for aye.
In many a morning and eve
thy footsteps have been heard
and thy messenger has come
within my heart
and called me in secret.
I know not only why today
my life is all astir,
and a feeling of tremulous joy
is passing through my heart.
It is as if the time were come
to wind up my work,
and I feel in the air a faint smell
of thy sweet presence.

A Living Testament to Tagore’s Ideals and Philosophy
Visva Bharati with a sprawling campus is famous for its excellence in the study of art and music. I was amazed by the awesome sculptures made with clay and pebbles by Ram Kinkar Baij, ( the right hand sculpture) a pioneer of modern art and sculpture in India. His works are inspired by tribal lifestyle and it is expressed through his sculptures and murals that are on display at Kala Bhavan.
“We cross infinity with every step; we meet eternity in every second.”

The world puts off its mask of vastness to its lover.
It becomes small as one song,
as one kiss of the eternal.

Rabindranath Tagore (1861 – 1941) is best known as a poet a bengali( Indian), and in 1913 was the first non-European writer to be awarded the Nobel Prize for a notable work of poetry called Gitanjali: Song Offerings (Macmillan, 1912), for which he received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913.. He was a school dropout as he felt stifled within the classroom and found himself unable to think and felt claustrophobic within the four walls of a classroom."
Rabindranath Tagore toured Java in the year 1927 accompanied by eminent architect Surendra Nath Kar. Later, when Tagore decided to establish another house at 'Uttarayan' complex, Surendra Nath applied the architectural form of Java on that house and Tagore's son Rathindra Nath took the whole charge of construction of that house. Japanese artist Kono Shuson decorated this house. Tagore named it "UDAYAN". The construction work went till the year 1938.
Udayan is the most imposing house in the Uttarayan complex. It is meant for important guests visiting Santiniketan. Each suite in Udayan is on a different level which gives this house its individuality. In 2013, Visva Bharati opened a museum Guha Ghar, in the Uttarayan complex, in memory of Rathindranath Tagore.

Este inmenso mausoleo de mármol blanco se alzó por orden del emperador Sha Jahan entre 1631 y 1638 para honrar la memoria de su esposa favorita.
El poeta Rabindranath Tagore lo describió como «una lágrima en la mejilla de la eternidad”, Rudyard Kipling como «la encarnación de todas las cosas puras”, mientras que su creador, el emperador Shah Jahan, dijo que Taj Mahal consiguía que “el sol y la luna derramaran lágrimas de sus ojos”.

Recently we went on a day trip to the fantastic Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma. After enjoying a relaxing day at the refuge on a whim, we decided to hike the Horton Slough Nature Trail. It turned out to be a great decision as we saw a double-crested cormorant about halfway through the trail and a great blue heron near the end of the trail. I had a bit more light coming in from the nearby street lamps allowing me to focus a bit better, and the bird was busy hunting enabling me to get close.
I know that the herons are a pretty common bird across the US, but it's still awesome to see one land right next to you. They have this effortless way of landing and taking off, making them an excellent subject to practice birds in flight photography. I was able to take some lovely images of the heron landing as well, but I was too close to get the whole bird in the frame and ended up chopping parts off.

The Monolith and Juniper of Joshua Tree National Park have a special place in my heart when it comes to photography. Every time I visit Joshua Tree NP, I make it a point to capture this scenic spot. On my recent visit, I didn't have the luxury of waiting for good light, but I had the advantage of having medium format film with me, precisely 6x6. With film photography, I appreciate the slowness and finality of the process. My film workflow involves limited post-processing, and in this instance due to my haste, I encountered a lens flare in one of my images. I suspect the open waist-level viewfinder was responsible for this. Despite the lens flare, I am impressed by how well the lens and film handled the harsh lighting conditions, as well as my own error.
