India 2010 - Day 6

Finally slept through the night! It's Friday morning and it's the first time since last Thursday night that I got a full night's sleep. Jet travel -- who needs it? (Just kidding, Tom).

As with every trip here there's a pattern to the day. This time it means getting up early (because I haven't slept well), taking a very short and not very interesting drive to the office, maybe walking around the office campus at lunch time a bit, then leaving the office after sundown to return to the modern hotel -- I don't think I've given a link -- it's the Westin Mindspace. If there's one thing I miss from earlier trips its the view of older parts of Hyderabad on the drive back and forth.

I try to find things to shoot but it's hit or miss, and so far there's not much variety. I shot these over the lunch break yesterday -- although it was dark and gloomy at sunrise on Thursday, the day quickly brightened up and became very comfortable. I shot these over lunch.

The office complex is known as "The V", and if you weren't sure there's a bit of signage and landscaping to help out.

Turning 180 degrees from that shot, here is the facade of the building where the office is located -- we're on the 4th and 5th floors.

And here's the by now famous rock fountain in the rear of the building. In a few months that crane will have done it's job and the sky will by gone from this view.

Over the weekend I hope to post a few more explicit before and after shots, comparing my photos from earlier trips to the shots I've taken this time. The change is radical.

Well, Peter, this is a wonderful blog and great pictures and we look forward to seeing more. It is hard to believe you've been there for six days. It's almost time to come home. Have one of your pals take a picture of you.
Love, Katharine and Tom
