After those few more days in Paris Center, we departed to London via the Eurostar Train and our first experience right through the Tunnel Channel. It wasn’t too long a journey and from our early departure in Paris Gare Du Nord we reached St Pancras Station around noon. How was the Tunnel Channel? Well, it…

Europe Trip – Paris
After four hours of travel from Frankfurt, the high-speed train arrived at Gare du Nord in Paris, and it was two different worlds. Compared to Frankfurt, the Gare du Nord was a mess; very busy with all sorts of people and rather dirty looking. Anyhow, it was time to move to our apartments. We spent…
Heritage Drone Instameet
Some times back (September 18) was held the first Mauritian Drone Instameet hosted by the Heritage Resorts in the south of the island. Being an avid dronist, I was thankful to be on the list of the guests and it was a full day of discovery, sharing and shooting. The day started very early in…
Droning Mauritius – Episode Five

The Bois Cheri Crater Lake On a quick trip to obtain some…
Hiking Iconic Pieter Both Mountain
The iconic Pieter Both mountain! Geographically, this ‘monument’ forms part of the Port Louis/Moka Range of mountains and is practically an emblem for the island. The uniqueness of its appearance having a boulder-type rock standing proudly on a peak is just magnificent, and by mentioning ‘icon’, this picture is even representing the island Mauritius in…
Cane Corso Puppies – Mauritius
I sincerely love dogs but unfortunately I cannot raise any due to lack of space at home and also that I might be the only one who cares about raising one, so, it’s a no for the time being. Somehow, I always enjoy petting and playing with it whenever I come across one; be it…
Droning Mauritius – Episode Four
The drone journey continues with this fourth posts (previously Episode 1, Episode 2 & Episode 3) gathering my various drone imagery around the island of Mauritius and this one isn’t much different either. To say, there are lots of other places I’m having in mind to visit but during these previous months due to the…
Droning Mauritius – Episode Three
As the title mentions, this is my third post relating solely to the drone category and again, if you haven’t checked the other posts you can click here for the first one and here for the second one. Introductions are no longer necessary I guess and below are my list of places I recently ‘droned’…

Droning Mauritius – Episode Two
If you haven’t read my previous drone post click here for the introduction, otherwise, point is am still feeling like a child who has just got his hands on his Christmas toy and who doesn’t go anywhere without it. May be I am exaggerating a little by this statement. The droning adventure still continues somehow,…
EXPLORE: Walkthrough to Eau Bleue Waterfall
If you haven’t read my first post about Eau Bleue then no worry (or you can still click here to read about it) because in my first post I mentioned that there exists more than one waterfall along this Eau Bleue river and I could only visit the first and the second waterfall back then,…
Droning Mauritius – Episode One
Commercial or recreational quad-copters/drones are certainly no longer such a luxury and many people are having fun with them in a way or another… and quite recently I got an older model of DJI’s Quad-copters, the Phantom 3 (The 4K Model) to play with from 75 Studio. Being a starter, I had to go through…
A Visit to Kanaka Crater – Mauritius
I still remember when I was a kid and during geography classes the teacher taught us about the dormant volcanoes of the island and one name that we used to tease about was certainly ‘Kanaka Crater’…even though we had no idea where it was and how it looked like. Quite recently during my ‘locate and explore’ sessions…

Back in August 2016, I was assigned an engagement coverage from 75 Studio Mauritius (Videography & Photography Services). Working together on regular basis I was quite thrilled to make the best out of this event; couple photoshoot at Albion (Pointe Aux Caves) and the engagement ceremony at Petite Riviere (a nice hall I forgot the…
Astrophotography at Mare aux Vacoas Reservoir
It’s been some time that I hadn’t attempted some astrophotography, and Thursday last (25/08/16) when returning back from work I couldn’t believe what I saw… the sky in the late afternoon was so clear and not even a single cloud was near, and this made me think that the right moment to try some more night…
Instameet Mauritius: A day at Lux Belle Mare
So what is this ‘instameet’ thing? Instagram, the image sharing platform on smartphones, is quite popular nowadays. Basically it is just an image editing application linked to its own image hosting service which allows users to view, share, like and comment on each other’s images. Well, so what’s the deal? In July 2015, the Lux*…
