Weekly Photo Challenge: Light

Hinduism is a major religion which is followed in India. However, it is not a religion, but more a way of life as it prescribes the path of living. And to illustrate the true path of life, there are several deities or forms of God that we worship. And one of those deities is Lord…

A Light at the End of the Tunnel

There are several tunnels on the route that leads to Lonavala, a monsoon paradise in Maharashtra. Indeed there is light at the other end, and knowing that the ride becomes less scary!

Day In and Day Out!

Mumbai is a glorious city to look at any time of the day. But in the frenzy and chaos of everyday life, we forget to admire its beauty and charisma.

Gateway to The City of Dreams

A city that never sleeps, one with a never-say-die, don’t give up or who-cares-a-damn attitude, Mumbai is home to millions of people. And yet it its opens its heart and doors to many more with every passing day. Some call it spirit, but for us, its just a way of life, as we know it best 🙂

An Evening at the Beach

It is rare to find any Indian beach clear of people or their possessions. I have a fascination for water, and this picture is a very strong reminder of many lessons of life. Every lonely evening need not be empty, the setting sun and the tiding waves will return with a hope of a colorful existence!

Karla Caves

Karla Caves is situated 11 km from Lonavla in a place called Karli. A Buddhist monastery in the 2nd century BC, the cave has been extensively damaged and is now under a restoration program with the Indian Archeological Society. The original living place of the monks is now occupied by a goddess Ekaveera temple.

Kune Waterfalls

The Kune Waterfalls is said to be the 14th highest in India. Located near Pune city, the waterfall comes to live during rains. Seen from the Rajmachi Garden at Lonavala, the beautiful falls was where the famous song from the film Sarfarosh was shot.

Strawberries with a twist!

  Mahabaleshwar is known as a land of strawberries, and we were about to savour the best and freshest of the produce. These two scoops of ice-cream are hand-churned with fresh strawberries, laced with strawberry sauce and finished with freshly cut strawberry pieces. All this at a low, low price of Rs. 35! Don’t know…

Needle-eye Point

This is actually a view of the Kate’s Point from the other end, and is also known as the Elphinstone Point. Although the hole is reminiscent on looking the eye of a needle, but on the whole the point looks like an elephant’s head, with Kate’s point set on the back of the elephant.

Mahabaleshwar

Mahabaleshwar is one of those few hill stations which can spots motorable roads, but to access specific points you need to trek a little.  Although we are not really the trekking kinds, even the pit-stops are offer stunning views!
