Was that a hoax

Check out the attached blog article.. The photographs are amazing.... but the sight of sand like beach on the water is more perplexing... how can that happen ..... It indeed sounds so weird but its true ...

The hoaxslayer newsletter article in January 07 edition on "Floating Volcanic Stones and New Island in the South Pacific" validates that it is indeed true

Least to say the photographs are absolutely amazing on the blog.. and thats what made me stop and check the details to that depth :)

Keep discovering.

Thanks Aakash!!
Those pics are beautiful and amazing in their own different way. Must have been an experience of a unique kinds for those who actually witnessed the whole thing.

Yes indeed there is loads to learn even in this hobby sake creative writting; the perspective is changing and new thoughts are evolving as I read my own words after reading other's opinion about those.

Precisely this is what I commented on your blog, we have our own style of writting but we acknowledge few things and appreciate the underlying idea even better when we see the impact that those words make on others.

Thanks for visiting the blog and appreciating the work!

Bhaav - Shabdon se pare

Jin bhavo ko tumne Apni panktiyon mein kaha hai, Un bhavo ko maine kayi baar jiya hai ! who lamha jo tum ne jiya hai, un khushi ke palon ko dil mein kayam maine kiya hai ! tumhare sawalon mein dam hai magar shayad meri soch pe bharosa tumhein kam hai! Jati hun jahan pati hun wahan Wahi khushi wahi waadiyaan. Dil jhoomta hai jis mein Tanha ho kar bhi sab se, Un waadiyon ke beech Mit jaati hain tanhaiyaan! Us hariyaali ke beech Paton par padi os mein Bas hoti hai arzoo ki lapetoon Poora aakaash apne aagosh mein. Ik took dekhti hun Kabhi kshitij ke pare tak ki waadiyan Kabhi ho jati hun madhosh dekh kar Na khattam hone wala raat ka wo aasmaan Kahin lagta hai choo kar aaoon Oonche oothte wo pahad, Kabhi lagta hai jaaoon Us bhavya saagar ke paar. Kabhi udti hun badlon mein To machalta hai mann Kabhi sunti hun koi kilkari To khil utha hain mann. Kabhi koi kaato (squirrel) Mujhe hansati hai Nanhe pairon se daba kar Jab mungfali wo khati hai Kisi koyal ka kookna Kisi bache ka chehkna Kisi kab...

kyon karni hai khwahish kisi ka naam le kar jo khud pe hain yakin to chalo khud ko akela kar! khwahish jo kisi aur ke balboote pe bani ho, toot jaye woh to kyon aankhon mein nami ho? Raah mein milne wale to musafir hain, Kuch pal humsafar ban jaate hain, Jo badalti hain manzilein to, Raah mein akela chod jaate hain. Raahgiron ko apni manzil na batao, jo bani hai kuch yaadein, ho sake to unhe bhool jao!! yaadein jo banti hain sahara kisi ka pa kar toot-ta hai sahara to nikalti hain aankhon se beh kar to rakhna hai kyon khud ko mohtaaj kisi ka bana kar karni hai bandagi kisi ki to sirf bharosa karo khud par! tab bhi bikhrengi khwahishein, aur tootenge armaan, jo dekhoge peeche to milenge apne hi kadmon ke nishan! bharosa jo tum ko fir se dilayenge, kisi toote dil ki daastan na fir se douhrayenge! bharosa tootega nai, khud pe mazboot hoga khwahishon ke tootne pe hi, nai khwaishon ke janam ka josh hoga ! This is in repsonse to DreamCatcher's comment to previous post :-)

'kyon'

oonche aasmaan mein ghane badlon ke beech, udi chal jati kahin sochti hun akhiyan meench! 'kyon' udta hai man bhare badlon ke jaise, sachayi-numa pahadi se takra 'kyon' behta hai pani fir aankhon se? 'kyon' koi khwab aankhon mein aata hai, aakhir kaise koi chehra dil mein samata hai ? fir 'kyon' nam hoti hain kisi ki yaad mein aankhein, dil baar baar ro kar 'kyon' zaar zaar hota hai ? chahton ke dayere mein bandh kar 'kyon' insaan samajh apni khota hai, vastavikta samajh kar bhi 'kyon' paristhityon ke haathon majboor hota hai ? dard se jhoojh kar dard se hi shakti pa, fir bhi 'kyon', dard bhari yaadein sanjota hai? dard se hi rishta banata hai?
