Bullet

"Made Like a Gun, Goes like a Bullet" - Got my new Royal Enfield Bullet Electra. RE is the oldest bike manufacture still in existence. Started in England in 1890s & later RE production is completely transferred to India. I have been seeing this Bullet since childhood at my home but didn't lik it very much- its heaviness, sound & its right side gear were some of the reasons. To me changing the gear with right foot was like writing something using my left hand. But nowadays Bullet is coming with left side gears and I am grown enough to hold its weight :)

There are a lot of people really crazy over Bullets. Bullet is famous for its thumping sound, long run capabilities, riding pleasure, looks & mass. There is a saying "Everybody makes way for the bullet", see the full Ad here. However its a cruiser, it can't be used like a other Indian or Japan bikes, it requires regular maintenance. Its not the bike for a drag race or riding at 100km/h. The best experience in a Bullet is between 60-70km/h. RE is not doing Ads in TV but only conducting rides and rallies for promoting their bikes.

Normal waiting period for a new Bullet is between 6-8 months after booking, the production is not high enough to meet the requirement. RE exports the bikes to Europe as well.

Blackberry

Read a lot "Blackberry phones are famous for its message capabilities", I wanted to experience this and got a chance finally. Yes, its very convenient for messaging, e-mail, phone calls, good clarity sound, battery backup etc. basically everything that is required for a "phone". However I found the service plans for BIS is very expensive compared to normal Data plans so stopped using it. Its very useful for people who travel frequently.

This is a prepared shot of the phone, after many tries from different angles, lighting etc. Another photo which took a long time for me to prepare is this one.

On the other hand following two pics are instant shots, not at all prepared. Another instant shot which I liked very much is this one. I never thought these pics would come good when I captured these. 

The magazine she(my wife) is reading is "Vanitha" which means "Woman" in Malayalam. Its a very popular malayalam magazine. "Woman reading woman" would be my caption for the photo.
