Last night Chotu presented me a
photograph he said he captured rather casually whilst toying about with his
iPhone 6s Plus. What I saw seemed most splendid. The composition. The natural light.
The atmosphere. It was as if it contained within it a distinctive vestige of
the everlasting charm one was quite accustomed to witnessing, say at a heritage
home in England, and via the lens of an accomplished photographer. My showering
him with the fittest compliments elicited in him a reaction of embarrassed
awe.
In more ways than one, the image also jogged
my memory to the words of Albert Einstein, who had said – The only thing that
you absolutely have to know, is the location of the library. In this case the
bedroom at home.
Sharing the original snap (sans any editing, filters or touchups) for the enchantment of the connoisseurs of superior taste.
