Kovallam, Kerala - 2011

A walk among the rocks on a sandy, wave-crashed beach...
where the light from the distant tower beckons those longing to shore...



With hands clasped together in love and excitement...
The rush of blood and water creating a longing for more...



From far and near have we come to bathe in it's beauty...
From cultures so similar yet very different in folk-lore...



Breath-taking views that leave us in mesmerizing exuberance...
Lost from the melancholic reality of the time before...


Come...
Kovallam beckons.

Remnants of Diwali nights

As the smoke from the burst fireworks fills up the night sky, the serene beauty of the night is part enhanced, part obscured.
Thankfully, nature always finds a way to restore the norm...but for how long?

Raindrops keep fallin' on my head...

Breaking that solitude

Shot at the F.I.N.S. (Friend In Need Society), old age home in Chennai.
My daughter's peeking into that dark room lit up the solitary old man who hardly smiled!
