I like Shantadurga up close! As they say, a good pic also depends on where you stand 😀
I couldn’t take my eyes off, Rajan-bab. I scrolled up and down, all 3 evocative of the place I knew. I pray that Tivrem (all of Goa in fact) retains its character and not fall victim to mindless “development”. Thank you.
Antonio-bab: Thank you. Unfortunately, things are not looking good for Goa. I doubt these patches of green will last after 10 years.
The monsoon season was NOT my most favorite time in SE Asia amigo! But the lush green jungle and rice paddies did present a vibrant image! These are made far better by a lone separation of color against the lush green foliage! Number 1 is exceptional!
Amigo Dan: Totally understand your feelings about the monsoon.
Rajan,
Gorgeous fotos. Thank you. Maybe you showed them on LuLa? If so, glad to see them again. Like reading a fine poem for the second or third time. Richard
Richard: Thank you. I think I posted a version of the first photo to LuLa awhile back. But the second and third haven’t been published before.
Beautiful Shanta Durga temple with green “shaalu”
Thank you, Madhav.
Your photos have captured the verdant beauty of Goa so well.
Sanjeev-bab: As we know, the monsoon season is a masterclass in green in Goa and generally along the Konkan and Karnataka coast.
Awesome. Lovely. Thank you, Rajan.
Thanks, Atanu.
