I was about to load the photos I'd taken today onto my computer when I realised I hadn't taken one of me - my daily selfie. I always wear glasses to look at the computer as the screen is too far away for me to see it clearly with my right eye and a little too close to see it easily with my left eye.
So to take my photo with my iPhone I pushed my glasses up to see the screen on the 'phone.😀

I love the coating on these specs, I shall ask for it on mine next time!
Spectacles
The greatest magnifying glasses in the world are a man's own eyes when they look upon his own person.

OK , so I've been to opticians 3 days ago as I started to see black dots in my left eye , and I realize how bad is my sight when she ( optometrist ) was putting all those lenses on my eyes.
You can get a new lens but not new eyes.

Thought my stream needed some colours. This is almost straight out of the camera, just a minor crop and slight contrast adjustment.
Like to take a break from flickr, major personal responsibilities are awaiting for my presence, almost it swallows my sleep and relax. Now its my time to react and finish the pending work, i dont know when i will finish all but soon see you all.
Thanks for you all.
This image captured in Gandhi Ashram at Ahmedabad City.
This Ashram also known as Sabarmati Ashram or Harijan Ashram, or Satyagraha Ashram.
This Ashram is located in the Sabarmati suburb of Ahmedabad adjoining to famous Ashram Road, at the bank of River Sabarmati, 4 miles from the town hall. This was one of the residences of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.Mahatma Gandhi spent approximately 12 years of his life here.
This ashram is now a national monument established by the Government of India due to its significance for the Indian independence movement in the form of the Dandi March in 1930.
The ashram now has a museum, Gandhi Smarak Sangrahalay. In 1963 the museum building was erected (designed by architect Charles Correa), and memorial activities were then started here.One of the important activities undertaken is the establishment of a Gandhi Smarak Sangrahalaya. Initially started in 'Hriday Kunj,' Gandhi's own cottage in the Ashram, the Sangrahalaya has now shifted to its own well-designed and well-furnished building which was inaugurated by Jawaharlal Nehru, Prime Minister of India, on 10 May 1963.
Nandini: It is on the right hand side of 'Hridaya Kunj'. It is an old Ashram guest house, where guests from India and abroad are put up.
Vinoba Kutir: Named after Acharya Vinoba Bhave who stayed here, and also known as Mira Kutir after Miraben, Gandhiji's disciple, daughter of a British Admiral.
Upasana Mandir:It is an open -air prayer ground, situated between 'Hridaya Kunj' and 'Magan Kutir' (the hut where Maganlal Gandhi, the ashram manager, used to stay).Here, Gandhiji used to refer to individual questions after prayers and as the head of the family analysed and gave his solutions.
The Sabarmati ashram which receives about 7 lakh (700,000) visitors a year houses, photocopies of about 34,000 letters written by Gandhi and about 8000 photographs and 165 films and of course, Hriday Kunj, the house where Gandhi and Kasturba stayed from 1918 to 1930.
These glasses have intermediate lenses which are good for looking at things about arm's length away - like the computer screen and the keyboard.
The reason I'm peering over them is that I'm using the bendy screen on my Sony 100iii to take a selfie and I'm holding it quite close to my face. I'm looking at the image on the screen with my very short-sighted right eye.
