Lens is a blog by New York Times. They came up with this amazing idea of "A Moment in Time", a single moment when photographers around the world click images where ever they are located and send it to the NY Times to make a global mosaic.
The time which was fixed for this great photo session was U.T.C. 1500hrs on 2nd May 2010, which was 2100hrs in Dhaka, Bangladesh.
Raka and I participated. The event was open for everyone, pros or amateurs or anyone with even a cell phone camera could participate. Our teacher Abir bhai sent out an email from Pathshala to us a few weeks earlier. Thanks to Abir bhai :-). Also thanks to Shadheen for giving the timely reminder :-). And of course a special thanks to the Lens team for providing such a great opportunity for people around the globe to connect in this amazing way :-).
We went up to the roof of the high rise we live in and I captured the traffic below. While Raka captured the moment by documenting my participation.
The following images are what we submitted...

It feels great to be part of something like this :-)
Hadn't found Raka's contribution yesterday. I guess the LENS team is still working at it.
Here's the link to her submission
