IDEAS - The catch word

I don't know whether to call it fashion of the day or just the latest Buzzword - but Idea -as in
' Latest ideas' 'I have an Idea for start up' etc is being seen everywhere.
It has become a kind of trend to have your own idea and start-up a new business or 'Venture' as they call it.
In our parent's time having a study job and moving towards a own place was considered well-accomplished but Today's generation can't sleep if they don't have their own something going on.
And it's a good thing too.

The main traits being seen among youngsters which leads them towards this :
  • A thirst to be their own boss
  • Increased capacity to take risks
  • Recognizing their talents early in life
  • Confident approach to problems
These are just few of those traits but the majority have them.
Apart from that the Internet simplified global connectivity and testing a new idea is also easy.

In India many corporates are helping and encouraging to think different and are also acting as venture capitalists. Apart from that, the previous interest in going abroad has also decreased.
Few of the sites which are being real help :

www.hotteststartups.in


Lets hope all this entrepreneur drive really helps our Society to grow !

All the best to your IDEAS Young Entrepreneurs.

Spring Collection


My Creative Journey gives you an idea of how I started working with all kinds of photo beautifications. I used
imikimi to mainly create the frames and blends
lunapic to manage various effects and as everyone knows
google to search for that which I have in mind.

And the season(Spring) matched with my general love (I love flowers, nature and bright things)
that led to my Spring Collection

Most successful of that collection are









My Creative Journey Part 3

Hmmm... what a long story?

Well, with all those images and stages it did became long.
There's one more thing with imikimi which didn't enter my thoughts for a very long time, in fact not till a month back. Original kimis are generally used by other users and which improves the creator's rating. Till I created the following kimi and it was used extensively (in my terms) I created kimis only for beauty's sake.

The above kimi required less work but resulted in big rating difference.
That proves one of life's facts - Most popular may not always be The Best.
Popularity or fame usually shows the choice of majority not the quality of that which is popular (in any field).

woah.. said a lot didn't I?
Well anyways , who doesn't like to be popular?
So from that particular kimi I started creating kimis with my ideas for general use.
hee hee in other sense I created for public.
I categorized them in the next blog. Check them out there !

The thing is next kimi is something which I worked hard for (to think, arrange and get the effect)


It is still something I am proud of.

My Creative Journey Part 2

Before I go ahead with the second episode i would like to say what little I know about that site which helped me along this journey - imikimi.com

As claimed by the creators, imikimi is one such place which believes there's a creative side to anyone and it provides the means to be so in the most simple way.
I don't know about all the kimi users but I was usually helped and encouraged in the forums too. Which led to more quality kimis.

I generally learned through reverse technology i.e., experimenting with other's kimis and learning how to create that effect and replicating it with my own photographs.

That's how I made these next few kimis :

This is one more of my favourites




My precious wearing Moon as a Jewel


A father - Son Love colours


These next kimis I made on a purpose, one as a greeting for MY parents and the next one resembles Little Krishna (Hindu god) in lotus flower.

My Creative Journey 1

Creative Journey !

Wow what a term... This journey as I call it started with my intention to record all those beautiful moments and actions of my dearest child.
It developed stepwise (as anything usually does)
1. I started as all mothers do by taking loads and loads of photographs with various digital cameras.
2. Then I wanted to post them somewhere so that my child can be appreciated (mother's pride came into play here ) for this I used Orkut, Facebook, ourcutebabies.com etc.
3. And it is through Ourcutebabies that I came to know about imikimi.
imikimi ... a very useful site to beautify your little darlings.
4. And as all imikimi users know first we search for appropriate kimis for our photographs.
5 Then we start making our own simple kimis. I started with blending my son's snaps with nature photographs
These are my very first kimis, very simple ones just to serve my purpose :



This is my favorite.
Made it in the beginning days but came out beautifully.


I shall tell in my next post how the journey proceeded from here.
