This the inside of the shiva temple, which i used to visit for the sake of walking. Later I found, it meant much more to me!
Our own "temple-pond"
My maternal family temple, where I used to hide, away from mom, when i was 3 till13!
The famous "theyyam"(he was facing me, when he saw my camera-phone)
The famous Panchavadyam, during "shivarathri".
This beach can be seen from my maternal home's terrace!
The view from my bed-room, in my house. Can you see the bird? Her nest is very near to my room's window!
I learned,practised and expertised in tree-climbing at the age of 3,on this,in my maternal home.
Wow... I love all the pics. Did you say those were taken from a camera phone? That's great resolution... most of the ones (pictures from camera phones) I've seen are small and blurry. :P

Thanks for the comments... That is crazy what some people do for money... I know my friend back in NY, where we used to live, she tells me the landlord there now charges you even for simple wear and tear expenditures, things that are supposed to be covered by the rent anyway... and on top of that he's charging $1500 for those apartments now (we were only paying $600 & change, and they weren't even worth THAT much :/ )... It's crazy.
ReplyDeleteIts a BEAutiful temple.... Thanks for sharing the pics. I loved the temple, the sun, the sea, the trees. All looked awesome.
ReplyDeleteWe too have an ancestral temple... in Haryana [murthal]. Will share pics sometime.
