After publicising my first solo fine art photography show, Evanescence [pronounciation], all over my online “properties”, I realised I hadn’t blogged about it at all! (Though I did microblog it on twitter if that counts). The main reason why I didn’t, was because I think no one reads my blog anyway 😛 since I am more active on twitter, so if you are reading this pliss let me know. Another reason was that I hadn’t officially blogged about the very important, life altering, transition from my IT industry job as a Project Manager to a totally new avatar – A photographer and a Social media consultant (More on that later).  This is also a feeble attempt to add ‘normal’ content to my blog and not just use it for digital activism.
So here goes! It gives me great pleasure to invite you to my first solo photography show!
About the exhibition
Evanescence denotes things which are transient. They could be events, people, objects, thoughts, feelings, glances or moments which are ephemeral in nature. But they certainly do exist and that presence has been captured by me in this series. Through “Evanescence”, I string together various slices of life with shots snatched from the streets, fleeting moments seized just before they disappeared or almost imperceptible moments of history grabbed from eras gone by.
Opening : 6pm till 9pm on May 28, 2010 (there were some rather exotic snacks and drinks)
Venue : Bagel’s Café, D-140, The Shopping Mall, Arjun Marg, DLF City I, Gurgaon
Exhibition Dates : May 28, 2010 till July 8, July 22, 2010 (Update: date extended by 2 weeks!)
Opening Times : Daily 8am to 10pm
The showcased photographs are available as Limited Edition prints.
The map of the location is here and a rather cool embedded thingy here.

Congrats on your photography show! BTW, one suggestion, You have published your mobile number. Many spammers would be reading your blog. Don’t wonder if you start receiving more spam now.
Thanks Sagar my number is already all over the net thanks to the blogger meets/camps I keep organising. so it’s ok. 🙂 I’ve spelt it in word format to avoid bots/spammers only.
Congratulations on your show! It’s wonderful to find another artist’s blog.
Ok. But then, don’t you get your mobile flooded with spam sms? How do you manage?
Sagar Spam SMS were already a bane much before I shared my number anywhere.
Thank you Studio MME
Why don’t you try smsBlocker.in. Believe me, it will amaze you with its intelligence and efficiency.
Congrats!!
What about those who are miles and miles away from the exhibition place and yet are interested to capture your photograph in their mind? Any (even remote) possibility to get it on web?
BTW, earlier, I was not at all interested in anyone operating with pseudonym. However, knowing you on We The Tweeples, forced me to click on Follow button on your page. Nice to read micro/mini/maxi blogs from you. Surprising to know that you landed in photography profession from IT!!! Any coincidence with your appearance in the above episode and making your id publicly identified with you and change of profession? (just a curiosity and in no way a personal question.)
Dinesh Karia
Thanks Dr. Dinesh Karia – I’ll share the pictures online after the show is over.
The WTP episode happened a little later, my professional change happened earlier.. my psuedonym/real name is more of public knowledge now (since some years)
My best wishes for your new avatar. Since I am too miles away atm as Dr. Dinesh Karia, I am too waiting for the end of the show 🙂

Cool. Congrats!!
So Ms Priyanka Sachar finally let her real name out? It is interesting, and shows that you are comfortable with what you are and do not care a damn about what the other folks think about you.
Rajnish – well it was never “hidden” .. the smart ones just had to google 🙂 And yes, why would anyone choose an anon handle because they are uncomfortable abt what others think? No there are many more reasons for an anon handle, not just that.
A tongue in cheek remark! Well I admit I am not one of the “smart ones”. If you care to share, I would be interested in the reason for the anon handle. raja_del29 at yahoo co in
Hey Rajnish – no I didn’t mean that you are one of the “un-smart” ones.. 🙂 what I said mainly applies to those who were over-curious, if you know what I mean. The story of how I came to choose “twilightfairy” is right here on the blog – http://blog.twilightfairy.in/2003/09/10/some-mundane-facts-abt-my-blog/
Congrats! any e-copy for your excellent work???
there’s no e-copy, but u can see it at http://www.priyankasachar.com/evanescence
Are you doing any more shows in the future?
No shows are planned as of now, but there will surely be some more. If and when that happens, this blog will definitely get an update about it.
