PHOTOGRAPHY - Be Free "Be free" is a phrase muttered by many people on the streets in Tanzania, especially Zanzibar. When tourists or "mzungus" don't heed to calls for taxis, overzealous mambos, or curio shops, locals will always respond with a calm but sincere "be free, you are in Tanzania." Pictured here, is a trio of adolescents in their truest free state: laughing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e07a0ee3df287c58042414/1508907632288-VGZR4TCCVOMF3XTJROVZ/IMG_9169.JPG PHOTOGRAPHY - Sunset on a cliff Bali, the land of temples, has the most beautiful sunset views.

The peaking structure of the Art Science Museum which overlooks Louis Vuitton's largest store (that too, on water) is a place beyond imagination because it captures architecture and form in its most basic form. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e07a0ee3df287c58042414/1508907995454-JVJ6PM58YZX65YUW7WWO/fullsizeoutput_dbe.jpeg PHOTOGRAPHY - Friendly Neighbourhood Hanuman Bali's iconic Uluwatu Temple's daily sunset Kecak Ramayana makes for delightfully strange theatre, in part due to the mischeivous monkey god, Hanuman. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e07a0ee3df287c58042414/1508908047297-Z3P5NYTBF3C9Q63TF5Q6/IMG_9630.JPG PHOTOGRAPHY - Boundaries Zebras, a common sighting in wildlife parks of East Africa, are still fascinating creatures to a first-timer. Each Zebra's stripes are unique, like human fingerprints. Here, I explore the lines (or the lack there of) in the unique landscape inhabited by the beautiful creature: through an observer's window, and without. The lines were captured as the vehicle was in motion. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e07a0ee3df287c58042414/1509359291950-VLCEQ01E5ZRWN2L9XWRY/fullsizeoutput_da9.jpeg PHOTOGRAPHY - Avanti Boats departing for daily fishing expeditions from the docks at Stonetown, Zanzibar. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e07a0ee3df287c58042414/1509362654907-33PL8YWYFCONW3RCTV4Y/IMG_5122.JPG PHOTOGRAPHY - Marrakech Marrakech's Tombeaux Saadiens are what the interior decor magazines wish they could be. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e07a0ee3df287c58042414/1509362675010-892JV5L69K78GZYQBMGX/IMG_4842.JPG PHOTOGRAPHY - Classic City from Koreatown New York continues to capture the hearts and imaginations of countless creatives, and each street offers a myriad of different perspectives.

This is a yard that I have overlooked for much of my adult life, and never before this moment, had I seen such a beautiful scene there. With trees covered in fresh snow, the sunset on an all white field, and an ombre sky. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e07a0ee3df287c58042414/1516496627773-GIMV8RGP1AYCZM7WST41/fullsizeoutput_27a9.jpeg PHOTOGRAPHY - Strength in Bloom A Thai Soldier on duty at the lesser-used or visited Summer Palace in Ayuthuya for the Monarchy. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e07a0ee3df287c58042414/1517293964604-KPMS6SC06IQIF0S97Y5X/IMG_9912.JPG PHOTOGRAPHY - The Oldest Photoshop on the Island Capital Art Studio, located in the heart of Stonetown, Zanzibar, is a family-run photoshop set up by Gujarati immigrants generations ago. As the oldest and most established photo shop on the island, Rohit Oza's father was invited across Tanzania to photograph the visits of heads of state and dignitaries. His black and white collection speaks volumes of a different time of diplomacy, and of the pride of film. Today, he sells the prints of those iconic images, and will take a passport photo for you if you insist. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e07a0ee3df287c58042414/1517294622097-LZX3SYYTNA9DJ65LIOMH/IMG_4653.JPG PHOTOGRAPHY - P A R T Y Cancun, Mexico, home to American teenagers partying.

The sit in protest here has been led exclusively by women, who have been out there, around the clock, for weeks to ensure their dissent is heard. The claim to public space in such a manner is unprecedented. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e07a0ee3df287c58042414/1595439293285-MOU89C3ISL8LKX1O3H94/IMG_7338.jpg PHOTOGRAPHY - verandah Or as it’s called in Punjabi by my grandmother, “prandah”, is a space for communal living and interaction. At the center of houses, or a group of living areas, where evenings meant too much sweet and milky tea and fried street snacks, and nighttime meant stolen conversation, and private utterances. It’s airy - to allow for continuous and much needed ventilation in the warm, North Indian summers, and looks up to an open sky. Earlier this year, we projected old Bollywood movie songs on the veranda wall for my grandmother. We may forget in the age of YouTube and Spotify, that our favorite songs and artists are at our fingertips, at any second. Every drunk dancing memory, or every heartbreak, there for immediate and intentional recall. Unlike even perhaps during my childhood, where one could experience the pure bliss of a favorite song on the radio - unintentional, unpredictable. At the mercy of cable television, she gets to see her favorites rarely. It was a scene of pure joy and delight, while she watched and sang along to old classics. Here, Mughal-e-Azam, still a cultural powerhouse. The power of deliberate recall in this cinematic art form evokes nostalgia like nothing else. As though part of an infinite digital library, there for our summoning, scanning through countless memories, this invisible retriever brings back those initial first moments where you experienced that emotion for the first or even only time. This is the power of internet and new media, not to ingrain divisive ideas in a sinister IT cell, but to unite for the sake of what makes us all human: love and art. And if you’re truly lucky, a wonderfully human memory associated with a song. https://www.vasundharajolly.com/home-1 daily 0.75 2019-10-21 https://www.vasundharajolly.com/homepage daily 0.75 2017-11-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e07a0ee3df287c58042414/1509296963341-QUYEU8V0D6CQ4QFX4Q65/Lake+Manyara+National+Park%2C+TZ HOMEPAGE https://www.vasundharajolly.com/why-sabzi-mandi daily 0.75 2019-10-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e07a0ee3df287c58042414/1512300448426-P67977WMKTGKKRTVM7WA/map.png WHY SABZI MANDI? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59e07a0ee3df287c58042414/1509989864929-KDUXQ6KZRNGH1FN3SCTD/Avanti WHY SABZI MANDI? - TL;DR: Because the "the sea is everything."
