Chennai Photo Walks -- Photoblog of Chennai

Chennai Photo Walk - I

I read a lot of Indian blogs and came across this one that is a photoblog of Chennai. These guys started in Mylapore and even I recognized some places....

apparently there is also a Chennai Flickr group...I should post some of my pics!

Some of the comments are interesting: "Chennai looks so clean, at least in comparison to the filth in other Indian cities. maybe i should retire to chennai instead of bangalore or goa."

That's nice to know!

I was a bit tempted, but early Sunday mornings don't really exist for me

The Second Chennai Photowalk

Thanks, ya'll.

YogaGal: DO you want to join us on the second walk? I know Nick thinks 9 AM Sunday doesn't exist, but I have solid proof.

The second walk will begin at the Fort and go south, along the Marina to end at the lighthouse. Details on my blog and at the Chennai Metblog.

Nick: How about an open mind on the 9AM issue?

PlaneMad: Thanks Arun, for the link. Got a good number of hits from here.

My plan is to make this a monthly fixture. Hopefully, with people other than just my schizophrenic selves.

its not very difficult to have routes. a friend of mine and I used to go to this hill near the airport and shoot. We have used close to 20 rolls of film - and still feel there are more snaps to click!

@ Ravages - would appreciate if you can sound me out for the next walk. Would love to join!

St. Thomas' mount. Yes, it's quite a good vantage point to shoot from

Now i know there are plenty of points spread out across the city, but to string them into a 2-3 hour walks might be a bit complicated.
yayers ravages, now i can discover more of the city
