  1. mohansphotographs – Gwalior Madhyapradesh INDIA – A surgeon and endoscopist by profession Dr. Mohan Sharma is an active practitioner of his profession. Born on the first of May 1960 he showed initial glimpses of the versatile talent when he became a national merit scholar. The Surgeon GMC Nagpur is where he received his MBBS,MS and moved to JIPMER Pondicherry for his senior residency. A fellow of the International College of Surgeons he has also been awarded a fellowship by the Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy in India. The Artist His paintings reflect an unexpected versatility of emotion, thought and action that will transport you across the length and breadth of human possibilities. He experiments with the various media and you will find serene watercolors rubbing shoulders with dramatic acrylics and stark pen and inks complimenting the colorful crayons. Till date he has created nearly 140 works which find pride of place in the corridors of the hospital where he practices. More remarkable is the fact that he has had absolutely no training in the arts and is completely self-taught in the use of the various media. He has a small but devoted fan following among his peers and patients who have bought several of his paintings, the proceeds from which he gave to charity. He feels painting works like meditation, helping him develop the focus and clarity required by his profession as a surgeon endoscopist. He says that the Almighty has given every human being a gift for creativity and that we should recognize it and use it to serve mankind. The Philanthrope The proceeds from the sale of his paintings go to an NGO called Roshni which works for mentally challenged children. The Rotary Foundation of India selected him as a GSE member to visit USA as their goodwill ambassador. An active rotarian he has done extensive voluntary work over the years. A member of ASI, IMA, IASG & SGEI he has had the honour of presenting papers in several national conferences. A recipient of Rashtriya Samrasta Samman he has managed to retain a passionate interest in painting while remaining an active surgeon, endoscopist and conscientious global citizen.

  2. derrickjknight – UK – I am an octogenarian enjoying rambling physically and photographing what I see, and rambling in my head as memories are triggered. I also ramble through a lifetime's photographs. In these later years much rambling is done in a car.

    A nice sentiment

  3. Kunal Thakore – Bombay – Chose Chemical Engineering for an education, Design and Communication as a profession and now, writing as an avocation (may it take me where it will). Many interests, a few passions, many journeys to make...

  4. LB – I'm a woman who loves spending time on the motorcycle and in, or on, any body of water. I love traveling and reading, baking and cooking, taking way too many pictures, and enjoying my family and friends. Life is an adventure, and I want to remember and express my joy for it! This is a journal for me ... so I'll never forget the good times and to remind me of them on more challenging days.

    Good Morning, and thank you for sharing image and prose.

  5. Tom's Nature-up-close Photography and Mindfulness Blog – My Blog primarily consists of close-up nature photos (that I've taken locally) combined with original holistic-truth oriented prose and/or poetry involving mindfulness/awareness. I love nature and I love understanding the whole (not merely the parts and the details). I'm a retired teacher of the multiply handicapped. I have a number of interesting hobbies, such as fossil collecting, sport-kite flying, 3D and 2D close-up photography, holography, and pets. Most of all, I am into holistic self-awareness, spontaneous insight, unconventional observation/direct perception, mindfulness, meditation, world peace, non-fragmentation, population control, vegetarianism, and green energy.
