Hi Sunil,

I love your photos. Beautiful birds. Photographed in the wild?
I know India has many beautiful species, as many others, I've been there as well :-) Also for my preofession: Ayurvedic therapist.
Are those your dogs? Very sweet dogs.

Love and warm regards,
Claudia.

i never been to india but ive seen it on tv and when i was living in oxnard ca we have a indian neighbor

Hello Sunil,
Sorry not to answer back; I've been away (I mean the LAP-TOP has been away!) (repair) (spa vacation) (joke; it does look all buffed and shiny! laugh)
So, just saying "hi", have a lot of reading (here) to catch up on!.... Yes, I knew a lot of patience was involved! (birds) Best, Nike

p.s. oh, i forgot to add, i think you & Pierre are the other Lab folks here... besides me--- it is just funny that way!
He had mentioned his dog; so (of course), I ask "what kind?"... when he said "yellow lab", well, (of course!), I said "No Way!" (do you say that, there? "No Way!"... "Way!" ... just funny)
Anyway, his dog looks like the sister of mine! Just funny

Yes, like "No way, Jose!"--- but you say that, too, in India?

Oh, i didn't think so! (the Jose part) Oops, I messed it up, i mean "Yes, way" (kidding) Ah, the great things we've given the world! American slang! (kidding, i'm kidding)
Yes, she was a student of my Dad's, (art professor-sculptor), I knew her as a little girl (me), somehow we've stayed in touch, and I told her about this place! (kind of neat, yes?)

Oh! Very nice! (I actually have this disc, too!) I started watching before I saw what you had written underneath, so I was confused... "is his son the little boy? or maybe he directed this?"

Hi Sunil!
Sorry; not my thing, I think those glorious birds in the trees are much more... well, they are truly beautiful!
oh! and your black labs expression is really dear--- he looks at the camera like, "Hello!" cheers, Nike

Hey, there!
Well, the black ones expression is priceless, and I can (easily!) believe he's a smart one
Also, meant to say, the tree, esp. that branch is wonderful-- adds a lot to your photos (diagonals, etc)
hope all's well there, Nike

Hi again!
I didn't think that looked like a coconut tree! (seen them in Jamaica--- run up and bonk! cut the coconut off, eat it fresh)
I tho't, "maybe Mumbai has different coconut trees!!!)
very nice new photos! Nike
