The Indiblogger Vodafone Speedfest Meet Grand Hyatt Mumbai



This is my new set Part 2 of the Lewis Hamilton Speedfest series, I shot this first, but posted the racing pictures first..

I am an Indiblogger?

What is IndiBlogger...?

Indiblogger is a platform for Indian bloggers based In India overseas..and are bound by a holistic mantra of Bloggers beyond borders beyond caste color community or creed and the ethnicity is purely Being Humane ..

I joined this band of bloggers a few years back and though I have been blogging since 2005 , this Indiblogger experience is one of its kind baptism by Blog.

My blogs are photo based poems of drama of Life ..and I pimp my Flickr blogs on IndiVine ..at Indiblogger ..

My grandaughter prolific street photographer 4 year old Marziya Shakir is a Indiblogger ,,with a Twitter handle ..

My other grand daughter street photographer photoshooting blogger 1 year old Nerjis Asif Shakir joined IndiBlogger the moment she landed on this planet from the time machine of her mothers womb..
She has a Twitter handle to, both have Facebook accounts I have deactivated because they have a very long friends list and managing their accounts was a tough task.

Both shoot on Canon EOS 60D both have their web presence on Flickr and Blogspot.

Marziya Shakir shoots on Canon EOS 7D .. with the vertical grip..I have never deleted their pictures as I think God hits the shutter button .. as he likes what they see , he loves their vision which is his vision too, a vision of a better world is possible if we nurture our children , our progeny at a earliest age on the path of Peace Hope and Harmony.

So this post is less about Vodafone more about Indiblogger and Indiblogs ..picture of Lewis Hamilton is as a encouragement that you can reach the skies or scorch the streets with the racing marks of your destiny...speedfest of time space ...and passion....in our case photography and blogging.

This Indi Meet was one of the best ..and I am lucky I sat with Deepak Magic Eye and Uma Shankar Pandey both passionate bloggers and keen avid photographers and here I must reiterate with more knowledge of camera settings light shade than me .. I am frickin point shoot artist .

As I am not much of a descriptive blog writer my narraion is purely visuals more like a story boad , so even if you were not there you will enjoy and feel what we felt when we shot these pictures for you.. those who could not make it..

I dont upload pictures on Facebook Picassa ..all my uploading is done at Flickr as a batch ..

I initially did not want to come to this Meet as I was to shoot the Media Darshan of Lalbagh Chya Raja I shoot every year but I have shot most of the Mumbai meets as a chronicle of Indiblogger Timeline.

I missed the Lalbagh Chya Raja shoot though I gave Rs 100 extra to the cab driver to do a Lewis Hamilton from Sion to Lalbagh..I missed the shoot by 15 minutes or so.. but I shot Gauri and the Lalbagh Market the umpteenth time..

So thank you Renie the Vodafone Speedfest pass got as the best strategic position and I shot Lewis Hamilton after all..without flash..

Thank you Shashi Bhushan Vodafone you did a great job you were the best after Lewis Hamilton.. yes dude .. you hit a ace..
