Archive for September, 2010

Human civilization is facing a lot of crisis these days. There are millions of people suffering because of discrimination, poverty, illiteracy, hunger and other man created and natural disasters. In such circumstances, NGOs play very significant role in our society. There are millions of NGOs throughout the world. They are serving the people who are unable to meet the minimum life standard due to some reasons.

In India, thousands of NGOs are trying to make the life of such people a happy experience. An NGO for women or Child Welfare NGO can make things easy for the government and the society as it takes care of every need of these groups. Param Shakti Peeth is such an NGO. ‘Vatsalya Gram’, an initiative of Param Shakti Peeth is serving the humanity under the proper guidance of Param Pujya Didi Maa Sadhvi Ritambhara Ji. Apart from giving bread and shelter to destitute women, old ladies and orphans; it also takes care of their health and education. ‘Samvid Gurukulam’ is the name of the temple of education that is situated in the premises of Vatsalyagram in Vrindavan.

This NGO is also working for women empowerment. Didi Maa always says that independent women can give great contribution to the economy of the country as well as to the society. To serve this purpose, vocational training centers are run by the Param Shakti Peeth where hundreds of women and adolescent girls learn the techniques of micro scale industries. There is a huge number of NGOs in India, but Param Shakti Peeth has a great reputation because of its different application and great result. This NGO has a great faith in the betterment of human civilization and working in that direction.

It’s a fact that such NGOs give great strength to a country like India where the government cannot take attention of the common people. More than that, such organizations are also successful in making the society more sensible about their duties towards its underprivileged section. Child welfare NGO can mould the scattered future that is an orphan child into a strong leader of the tomorrow. The societies should understand that if they help a human being in surviving, they will help themselves to survive. In the words of Barbara Walters, “It would be nice to feel that we are a better world, a world of more compassion and a world of more humanity and to believe in the basic goodness of man”.

Param Shakti Peeth, one of the most prominent NGOs in India, is serving the nation with great dedication through its initiative ‘Vatsalya Gram’. A different approach towards the betterment of humanity, divine guidance of Param Pujya Didi Maa Sadhvi Ritambhara Ji and the support of thousands of people have made it such a place where only love and affection is nurtured. It has been an ideal NGO for Women as well as a Child Welfare NGO.

The role of NGOs in a country like India is very critical. It is very important for a healthy society to ensure that every single person can get the minimum support to survive. In order to make a strong social and political relation between the state and its people, it is very important to take care of their dignity and other essential human values. NGOs are doing the same thing by their great service to the humanity. There are many NGOs in India that are working for the empowerment of women. Param Shakti Peeth is also working in the same direction and empowering the women and adolescent girls of underprivileged section of the society through its vocational training programs.

It is very hard to believe that in a country like India, where there is a famous tradition to assume the whole world as a family (Vasudhaiv Kutumbkam), the number of destitute women is increasing day by day. The golden culture of India is suffering and organizations like Param Shakti Peeth are trying hard to save the humanity. There are many NGOs in India, but some of them are doing exceptionally well. They have given food and shelter to many helpless people including orphans and old ladies. At ‘Vatsalya Gram’ such children are treated in the best possible way so that they can perform their duties in an organized way, the duties that are inherent for the society and the country.

Some people say that NGOs are not working properly or they are betraying the whole society in the name of humanity. It may be true but one should understand that most of the non-profit organizations are only working for a better tomorrow. They have a plan to make this world livable for every single human. As Mahatma Gandhi once said,” You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty”. Hence, people who are capable to help these organizations in meeting their goals, they must come and give their contribution to serve the humanity and in the same way to serve the God.

When photographing food, unlike other forms of photography, a good food photographer is looking to stimulate a number of senses. It is therefore not sufficient to create a photograph that is just visually stunning; with food photography the image needs to literally make your mouth water.

There are some useful tips that food photographers use for getting that perfect visual, as well as that element of ‘taste’ into food photography:

The background is kept simple so that the eye is not drawn away from the food. Plain white or lightly patterned paper or uncluttered backgrounds are used to help focus the image.Any accessories are chosen carefully. Silverware place settings and candles provide traditional sets, around which to frame the food.They always choose the very best food they have, so focus on quality rather than quantity.

If using fruit as part of the set, a good food photographer will make it glisten to look as though it has just been picked from a tree.Garnishes are used that will complement the dishes. Citrus fruits always look good with Thai food and fish particularly; chopped chives can be scattered on soups and small bowls of different sauces introduced into the frame to give the composition added interest and depth.

The food photographer will often use only one zoom length and play around with different angles. Their shot will be creative rather than predictable where angle shots can look better. Using a digital camera means they can experiment as much as they like. Most photographers use composition techniques, such as the rule of thirds. By dividing the image into a nine part grid, the lines cross at four points on the grid and this is where the food photographer places the food subjects. When viewing photographs or pictures, the eye automatically goes to one of these intersections, so the viewer then focuses on what the food photographer wants them to see. It also helps to create a well balanced photograph.

Food photography, like still life, means that the subject is static, so the food photographer takes advantage of this fact and takes time to get the shots exactly right. Although most food photography is stage set, food photographers always take their camera with them on the off chance that they may secure a good shot. They will always have a good selection of lenses, use as much soft and natural light as possible – in addition, they generally don’t use a flash as it can make food look shiny and unappetising. If they want to take pictures at night, to capture the romance and gentleness of candle light for example, they will use an ISO or digitally ‘slower’ camera.

Finally, to get that true culinary experience, they will get a number of run up shots that take account of the ingredients, the preparation and the cooking before taking the ‘final shot’ of the finished plate. In this way, they will have captured the whole food experience that not only feasts the eye but feasts all the other senses too.
