In the past weeks I have been around Hyderabad a bit – traveling mostly when I can take some time out in the weekends. I have also been playing around with my new Sony P150. I just thought that I should take some time and put out pictures.

This is a close up breakfast – sausages with lots of veggies – blurred through the steam droplets under the glass lid.

A shot of the famous Charminar.

Pigeons fly about one of the minarets of the Mecca Masjid.

The Mecca Masjid again. Lovely place. Peaceful.

We spent a sunset there this weekend. Sid had been visiting us from Bangalore.

Speaking of pigeons this is a shot of pigeons flying over one of the old minarets (of which you find several) in the old Hyderabad area.

Microsoft shifted to its new campus in Hyderabad this weekend. I now have a new cubicle. The new campus area is lovely. Open barren land with a few large software shops littering the rocky landscape.

The above shots are from the Nagarjun Sagar dam – a 3 hour drive from Hyderabad in one of the AP tourism buses. Had been fun.
