Two of my photographs have been used by other publications. At least these are the known ones and I’m pretty sure that more have been used without attribution or credit. But for now…

This mention in The Times of India, published on October 19, 2014, is perhaps the most special for it is about a water fountain I wrote about on the blog and built a fictional history around it. A few years I found that most of it was true, and this article talks about it.

PS: This blog has also appeared (and continues to appear) in listings of “Top Travel Blogs“, but since I don’t maintain or bookmark the mentions, I can’t share them with you. Oh well… 🙂

Note (September 15, 2018): The realisation that I didn’t have a dedicated section on the blog to showcase my publications came about earlier this month, when my latest article was published. I wanted to remedy that immediately, but it turned out to be quite a task as I had been remiss in maintaining a list of all that I have published thus far. I finally got around to collating a list and setting up this page, though I’m pretty sure I have missed out on some. But I think this is a good beginning for now; plus I will be updating the page as and when I have new publications to add !
