Sweet Memory of the Past- A Journey Through Photography

Sweet Memories Lay Softly On

~ Joseph Alan ~

I have read this poem in internet written by Joseph Alan. Don't know who is he but he wrote the words of my mind. I have just felt lost in my past memories when I see my photos captured in different times. Memory is very precious things of human life.

Not Every Memory gives us peace and happiness. But we really care about the memories of the past which gives us a good feelings and we become nostalgic in a way.

However, today I am going to share some of my happy memories which I captured in the time of travelling different parts of my country. I am a travel lover and also love to take photos as a memory.

So, when I saw this photo contest, I just grab the opportunity to share my old happy moments with you all.

So, lets have a happy journey with me through my photo memories of the past days.. :)

1/ Happy Kites:

Look at this beauty! I captured this beauty from Cox's Bazar Sea Beach, Bangladesh. It was almost evening and the sun is going to down, I was roaming around the beach. Suddenly my eyes were stuck in the sky to see these happy kites. It seems to me that the kites were just smiling to fly into the sky and catch the sun.. I was so amused to see the combination of the kites, sky and the Sea. I just imagined me as a kite and flying into the sky! I wish I could fly someday!

2/ Symbol of Love:

Have you ever fall in love with the dragon fly! I did... I was in a road full of catkin and it was late autumn. I was hanging out with my colleagues. Suddenly I saw this beauty seated in a stick of catkin. I was greedy to take a photo of this beauty, but I was afraid to thought that may be she will fly to see me but she didn't .

She was brave enough. So I didn't miss to capture her in my hand. I slowly kept my hand under the stick and made a click. And believe me this was a best shot I have ever taken.

When I feel depressed, just see this photo and again I fall in love and start Smiling ... :)

3/ Happiness & Childhood:

I was so lost in my childhood, when I see this happiness. I imagined me as the child pulling the car made by the gallon of water and my little sister is riding my car with full craziness. Really I was lost on that moment.

I captured this photo from the hills of Cox's Bazar. I was going down from the hills, then I saw them laughing with full happiness and the sunshine kisses them. Such an innocence!

I realized, "Life Is Really Beautiful" if we can enjoy every moment, if we can be happy with small things. I was feeling crying to see their innocence and unconditioned happiness.

4/ Footsteps of Dream:

See, What I found in the sea beach! Footsteps of little angel. Having children is like a dream to the parents. So, this footsteps are may be an image of any parent's dream. I felt so adorable to see these footsteps of the little angel. Don't know who is she but must be a one spreading love around.

Again I lost in my childhood and started finding my footsteps behind me... But its too late....

5/ Autograph of Smile:

In internet I have read a quotation made by unknown is, “Keep a Smile on Your Face and Let Your Personality be Your Autograph.”

I felt this quote very deeply to see the smile of this guy. Such an innocence I have ever seen in such an older guy. He was a younger boy works in hills. He helped us climbing such a high hills we couldn't believe we can make it. He helped us climbing hills by cutting the trees and making the safe pathways. When we climbing down from the hills he collected these bunches of trees for cooking foods.

After a very horrible but adventurous and enjoyable climbing, we were very satisfied and we thanked him for helping us unconditionally. Then he welcomed us with this innocent smile which become an Autograph of him.

The autograph which he gave us through his smile will alive forever. There is no chance to torn or lost, because he gave us the autograph in our heart.

I have taken these photos long long ago. But still these photos give me a peace and happiness in my mind and reminds me my good old days which I missed all the time.

So, That's all for today. Let me know how was your journey with me? Was it a joyful journey? If yes, then thanks for be my company with this joyful journey of me :)
