So, as planned, I got up early at 6:00am and called up Amol. He too had just got up. After 30mins we were cruising on traffic-less road towards KBR Park in the morning chill. Amol had just got his Canon S2 IS and was total enthu about the whole thing. As for me, I had just got my Olympus C-750 repaired and was also longing for a clicking outing.
10mins and we were parking our vehicle at the gates. We took our equipment (with tripod and all) and proceeded towards the gate. As I was handing over 10 bucks to the counter fella for entry ticket, the watchman at the gates warned against taking any cams inside. Well that was the end! All our plans went for a toss. Well, we thought of salvaging something of our trip and took to a small walk around the park (the park has free walk-way around it).
It was just time for a beautiful sunrise and we both fished out our cams and were frantically shooting to capture the moments.
Once satisfied with the sunrise images, we continued walking and reached the end of the pathway. I tried some clicking at some plants of the horticulture. Then emerged one watchman and started blabbering something to us and pointing at the cams. We grasped that cams were again not allowed even outside the park!! :( Well, all our enthu of photography vanished and we returned home with just snaps of sunrise.

Good beginning.. though your noble efforts were thwarted by the watchmen.. waiting for more!
Well guard or no guard, the excitement is part and parcel of this game of photography...its even better to know that i could have been the third one to be featured in this blog...and that i was spared...but the snap is definitely worth the early morning out...badiya hai!!!
