There is a certain enchantment when it rains here in Karachi. Its when all the dullness is swept away and the real life and color is brought back to life.

This picture was taken at "Dou Darya" (Two Rivers), at Seaview, Karachi. I have published this picture as a wallpaper as a token of appreciation for all the support for my entry in Pakiofraphy by liking and commenting on my two pictures. I hope I can count on the same kind of support as I work to promote diversity and cultural awareness through my photography.

Sunrise at Dou Darya Wallpaper

Sunsets in Karachi are one of the most beautiful moments to witness in this cosmopolitan city. Take a drive down to the beach (at Seaview) and wait for the sun to cross over the horizon and you will find yourself wanting to see more of this beautiful event...

Sunrise has always been one of my favorite time of the day. Its really great to just sit down and wait as the sky changes its colors as the first rays of morning light come through finally ending with the sun at its peak. On one of these sunrises I got the chance to witness one of the most spectacular sunrise at Karachi. The plan was to go on the first day of Eid but as fate would have it this sunrise was witnessed on the second day of Eid. Was it all planned by Mother Nature? You decide, because on that Nature showed her real and true beauty at that moment of the perfect sunrise.

Its been a long time since my last post. Just to let you guys know, I've been working on developing Rang-e-Pakistan (www.facebook.com/rangepakistan), a social enterprise whose sole aim is about promoting the Colors of Our Country (Hamaaray Rang, Hamaari Phechaan!). Will keep you guys informed about this in the coming months. Don't forget to pour in your feedback after visiting the page. :)

For today's post, fortunately, Karachi was blessed with some really cool weather today. Clouds and rain so to speak, a weather that any Karachiite dies for during the hot humid months. I've shot the following picture to show what approaches Karachi in the skies. Accoriding to the local MET Office, Karachi is to receive showers through Wednesday till Thursday so everyone, enjoy the rain while it lasts. :D
