மஞ்சள் வெயில் மாலையிலே..

As the sun sets near the Shore Temple, Mahabalipuram - India. Still as mesmerising as the Pallavas would have enjoyed it 1300 years ago..


Behind the Academia, Venice - probably the most photographed sunset.


Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn), Bangkok - at Dusk



Just after sunset, well above cloud level, and flying over the Tyrrhenian sea



Its time for the little suns to come- St.Agata fest , Catania,Italy.

The Tricolour of my heart

..உலக உருண்டையை
அனணத்துக் கொண்டாலும்,
இந்தியாவை மட்டும்
முத்தமிட்டவன்..

To the round earth
I gave a warm hug,
but my kisses
are only for India

"உயில்" - கவிஞர் வைரமுத்து ('Will' - Poet Vairamuthu)



Shot in Bangkok, this arrangement of flowers on the table at the reception of my hotel caught my eye.(I couldnt have missed it !)




The largely unknown spectacle of Venice - the island of Murano is home to an army of dedicated artisans who create magic in glass. Shape, colour, pattern become their 3 dimensions and what results is a universe of intricate glass artwork. And I found a home of sorts there!



A composite picture with the saffron-orange bark of a tree and the garden-shade amongst greenery were shot in Kent Ridge park, Singapore. The snowy region in the middle of the flag is Mt.Etna's volcanoes(Sicily, Italy) in winter.
