To add some spice to our rather routine blogging life, Odzer and I collaborated on this photo-blog post. It shows certain common urban features in Toronto (Canada) where I live and Chandigarh (India) where he lives.I loved doing this interesting post.It was very interesting to do this post. The standardization of cities around the world amazes me. All these pictures are from my neighborhood and I am always armed with my camera, taking hundreds of pictures.”

Some days ago Priyank and I have decided to collaborate and create a photo post together. The idea was to find common aspects between the cities of Toronto and Chandigarh. At first I thought it would be radically different but at the same time having seen some cities in various countries I thought it shall also be boringly same. The results are for all of you to view in the pictures here. I really enjoyed going around the town taking pictures and since I live in India at least on two occasions people actually came up to me and asked what I was doing. At one time when I was taking the graffiti picture an old couple walked up to me and asked a friend who was with me at that time what the graffiti meant. When I was taking a picture of the man hole cover a chai-wala boy (a boy whose job it is to deliver tea), wanted me to photograph him instead of the manhole. He was very annoyed about the fact that I was wasting my time taking pictures of a gutter cover. He actually would not even budge from my shot. I think that both of us agree that we will be doing a bit more of posts like this in the future. Not only does it make for us a nice change from our regular posts but also gives us an interesting activity for half a day or so!
