six degrees of separation …

Hello ...
have been watching a new TV series ...
Its called six degrees ... its kinda kewl ...
its about six people living in new york city ...
And their connection to one another ...
Its based on famous idea of six degrees of separation ...

Six degrees of separation refers to the idea that ...
if a person is one step away from each person he or she knows ...
and two steps away from each person who is known by ...
one of the people he or she knows, then everyone is ...
an average of six "steps" away from each person on Earth ...

I like how the story is unraveling ... sometimes unpredictably ...
How seemingly strangers are connected ... and why ...
How people become friends ... and how relationships are born ...
Too bad its a short lived series ... with only a few episodes ...
But I liked it anyways ... don't really know why ... hehe ...
May be cos we live in a city ... where we all know most people ...
May be coz it harder to find a stranger here ... than a friend ...

Daily Photos of Malé … a photoblog …

Hello ...
I've always been amused by good photography ...
The amazing shots we see can have that effect on many ...
I've always wanted to go out and shoot a few shots myself ...
But all i did was procrastinate... as I had no reason to shoot ...
Few weeks ago... while surfing the internet ...
I came across several daily photo blogs of cities ...
I liked the idea of having a daily photo blog ...
To display images of one's city ... a photo a day ...
I thought may be I could have a photo blog for Malé ...
As photos of Maldives were everywhere on the net ...
But Male' was at best... under represented ... right ... ???
But I was skeptical ... I had my doubts if I can pull it off ...
Especially when they say that its not as easy as it may sound ...
Later that day I met up with nazeeh ... and talked it over ...
He was as excited as I was ... probably more ...
He wanted a reason to go out and shoot as well ... to practice ...
And having daily photo blog was an interesting commitment ...
So we began working on it together ... and here it is ...
We welcome you to www.dailyphotosofmale.com ...
Have a look ... let us know what you think of it ...
The idea is to update it every day with a fresh new picture ...
With an explanatory... descriptive and a helpful caption ...
We know it'll not be easy maintaining a photo blog like this ...
Some even say Malé is not big enough for 365 pictures a year ...
But we'll try our best to do this... am sure its worth a shot ...
So far we've both loved and hated the challenges of the project...
Constantly discovering ways to present our small city ...
Most of the pics are by nazeeh ... most writings are mine ...
Wish we were more adventurous ... hehe ...
Laterx ...
