Phyan

Most of you must have heard what happened on the west coast of India. Cyclone Phyan made much damage actually. Yesterday, my city — Pune, more than 100 kms from the nearest coast, lost more than 150 trees! Rivers flooded like monsoon!! The most comic tragedy, however, happened with me :)
• No electricity
• All the 3 mobile phones at home had their batteries drained
• The landline was not working
• No water supply, don't know for what silly reason
• Internet connection was down
• The height is that when I went to photograph the event, the camera battery too was at the bottom level! Luckily, it didn't drain completely.

Below is a picture that my camera took for me yesterday. I'm not satisfied covering the phenomenon however.

    The fact is that I like it when mother nature shows its fury.

  10. Perhaps by this time you're back up and running...I hate these terrible acts of nature...we've been fortunate this year so far in that we've had no hurricanes.

    Best wishes!

  12. Bhavesh, try to get your hands on a hand-cranked recharger! I have one for one of our cell phones. You really had a run of very bad luck! Rain wasn't the only thing falling, battery levels were, too! But your picture is very exciting, and scary. Raging water is very frightening. Please be careful!

  15. Wow, that's a scary amount of water right next to a building. I hope the building wasn't flooded inside.
    Sounds like you had no services for awhile. I hope everything is more or less back to normal now.

  17. I am so sorry about this flood – I know how terrible and upsetting that can be, and I am also sorry for the back luck with your equipment, but you did get a good picture.
