About Janak

After graduating from College and working in the computer software world for 15+ years, while sharing my greatest work with others I came to know what made me tick. It was the satisfaction I derived from the social interaction with people by providing them with something that they could highly appreciate and deeply treasure. I realized that what makes me happy the most, is to make someone else happy the most, and software development, just couldn’t do that for me. So I decided to pursue a line of work based on something that not only I’d love to do, but also something that others would love me to do for them.

Texas Museum of Automative History

Here’s an interesting place I visited when I was in Dallas a few months ago http://tmah.org/ . They’ve got a lot of classic old cars from the 20th century. So I just shot pictures of some cool looking cars. I spotted a few unforgetably famous cars like the Ford Model-T, Back to the Future’s DMC DeLorean and the 1st James Bond car, the Aston Martin previously owned by George Harrison. But my personal favorite has to be the 1913 Mercer 35 Raceabout, built in Trenton, New Jersey, from 1910 until 1925, its the “Yellow” car which looks like a contraption that came straight out from the movie set of a 19th century victorian era “steam punk” Film!
