Moon Walk
This is the first of many of Bond's Photographs that he had taken during his IIT Roorkee (then University of Roorkee) days i.e between 1972 to 1976. Bond won photography awards in his first and second year of engineering, after which he was debarred from competing as the college reasoned and I paraphrase "as long as you compete no one else has the remotest chance of winning"! He after that, held solo photography exhibitions in the university campus, ofcourse non competing!This one is titled "Moon Walk" and it traces the path of the moon in a span of approximately 12 minutes. It was taken by a Yashika 635 twin lens reflex. The path was captured by keeping the shutter open for the time duration.

Great picture! Bond is cool!!
Thanks all you bloggers. Pearl forced me to type this comment.
Me is Bond and have no idea of the bloggers community.
Yeah! those were the days when I would love shooting in black and white and on the film.
Times have changed and it is the Digital world.
I no longer use the TLR that I used during my Roorkee days, but it is still a priced possession with me. One of these days I will show it to Pearl.
Pearl, who is now used only to the Digital 3 and 4 Megapixel cameras and has no idea of what beauty you could capture on Black and White films.
Any ways, I trust Pearl will post more.
Enjoy yourselves and thanks all of you once again.
LOVE YOU ALL.
BOND
Hi Bond... its a pleasure. Welcome to the blogging community!
And yeah, show it to Pearl so that she can teach us too :D
Hello Bond, Welcome to the Blog world! U r really a nice shooter, I meant the pix u shot is really cool. I knew what was SLR but never knew that there shud be a TLR when there is an SLR :D. Only with the help of Wikipedia I found out that a continuous picture can be shot with a TLR. Hatz off again. Expecting pearl to post some more.
Mathi Bhaiyya, Sudhakar Bhaiyya I am sad. Nobody says I'am cool. Bond is very lazy to write more comments.
Please say I'am also cool. And "Hatz off to Pearl".
Lazy Bond is dictating a comment:
"Bond says a continuous picture can be shot even with an SLR and an SLR is always better than a TLR. In Bond's days SLR's were too expensive, so Bond had to be satisfied with a TLR. That too one borrowed from his elder brother."
