KARWACHAUTH by silver screen stars...(post no.224)

1.......Sridevi, Raveena Tandon, Shilpa Shetty and many ladies from the Kapoor family were seen all dressed up at Anil Kapoor's house to celebrate the auspicious Karva (Karwa) Chauth. There are many pictures shared by the celebs on their social media accounts giving us a sneak peek into how they opened their day-long fast and we see their loving husbands all by their side too. TVbahus Divyanka Tripathi Dahiya to Kishwer M Rai or Kishwer Merchant too shared their look from the day. Scroll on.

2........We were happy to see a frame full of ladies including Shilpa Shetty, Raveena Tandon, Sunita Kapoor, Maheep Kapoor and many others.

3..........Another picture to entertain.

4..........Shilpa Shetty too shared this picture and captioned it as, "Awwwww @rajkundra9 , you are my “universe”😍Saw the pic of the moon in Amritsar (someone sent on the phone) This was a good idea considering no one in Mumbai could see it😓😰#karvachauth #memories #tradition #love #gratitude."

5................And Mini Mathur too shared her opinion about the fast. "Yes KC is a regressive concept. That women should fast for their husbands wellbeing without a reciprocal gesture is galling.. but there's something quite beautiful about keeping family tradition alive in today's world & the fun with which we mathur girls do it. I keep it mostly to keep my mom reassured that I'm still a good, honest wife and Basically think of it as a detox. It has my ma in law scurrying around me with great concern all day explaining why I should not follow customs that affect my health and jazz like that. Come evening, all of us wear our identical kayastha "Chunris" and meet for the pooja.. where we scoff at the story behind the festival (but we go through all the rituals anyway), laugh a lot.. tell the husbands they are not up to the mark, exclaim at the loudness of our sarees and tuck into a mathur feast. All in all.. I love the festivity more than the cause at hand. And yeah.. the husband lives 👨🏻🤞🏼#karvachauth #mathur #tradition," posted Mini.

6.........TV's favourite couple Divyanka and Vivek Dahiya also celebrated the day. Vivek shared this post with caption, "With my moon by my side, the sky was full of rain and thunder. And so the fast finally had to be ended with the moon from the internet! #HappyKarwaChauth."

Another chapter in child photography....(post no.223)

It is worth enjoying when we look at the child's face....FOR what she wants excuse?.Any excuse? She must have been scolded by her mom.
----Shooting children is interesting, as if u are standing of the beautiful flowers....There are several of expressions......That needs a good camera set-up, not necessary a costly one.....For amateurs, I will recommend compact cameras....or more interested ones go for DSLR.
----WHILE photographing children or any subject, remember, the camera NEVER LIES. The truth is in the chip u have in camera....or directly into the smartphones, a wonderful media, I think everybody is enjoying that. Even cheaper cameras give option of a camera. I have both in my pocket.
-----When u want to take a picture of a child, u would not want to disturb children from any activity they are engrossed in. A small compact camera will let u unintrusive. CAMPHOE too can help here. Just check that the lighting is good, like a tubelight at least.. a good compact camera can be a good toy too for small children, the saliva coming out of their mouth and they have innocent look,,,,,,just capture it with camphone.
To keep them engage to be photographed is to use bubble-blower or small mirrors to play, and shoot two faces like selfies....As the child grows, he/she may start giving good poses to u. Just enjoy that and send thenm to any newspaper or a magazine for publication.....................YOU can go out of your house and thus u will get lot of attention of different children........Just enjoy them, make them less camera conscious and take good pictures. Today the best toy is 'mobile phone'.....hello hello.....click click.
