Namma Dakshina Kannada
Being away from my home town for nearly two years had grown inside me as a strong desire to visit the coastal towns of Karnataka again. After being postponed nearly three times, my trip was confirmed...Welcome to my journey, a journey through the frozen frames from my memory. Walking through the streets of Mangalore, hunting for interesting insects and flowers in my grandma's garden, watching the sun set behind the calm waters of a river, a fisherman bringing in the day's catch, birdwatching in the bends of the Kudhremukh Highway, shaking off the wriggly leeches, soaking in the cool and refreshing atmosphere in the mountains, watching the mist crawling towards us, playing in the rain along the edge of swollen stream. These are some of the prominent segments of my 'memory-playback'. Take a peek...
Lonely Pup
Brooms for sale
Juiced!
The vendor and his golden bajjis
Need just one coin
Tugging at the day's catch
Move on or fall prey to a high-speed coconut
Ixora flowers
A Lynx spider waiting...
Out of the darkness
Watching the clouds arrive
Even the sun sleeps...
Lush Forest
Chilly hills, rolling mists
Thirsty for blood
Conquered by the forest
Muscle in the mountains
A path leading into the unknown...
Moss on wall
A Basil flower
Rain = Fun, in Karkala...and just as there is an end to everything that is enjoyable, I opened my eyes and the scenes in front of me dissolved. I was back into the future.

Adi, these shots are brilliant!! You have such an eye for great composition! I loved the macro shots, and the one of the bajji vendor, the brooms and the path into the mist especially!! You are truly talented!
Thank you all for visiting, I really appreciate the encouragement. Keep visiting and stay tuned for more from my blog!
Love the photos!
Here are my favs:
The golden bajjis lol, 'even the sun sleeps' 'out of the darkness', the unknown path, the coconut tree.
The leech and the spider however will give me nightmares, thanks very much. =D
Hi Aditya,
Thank you Aditya for taking me (& many of your fans)through a journey back to the golden memories of my childhood. It is like 'a single picture can tell a better story than thousand words'. As the saying goes'Eyes see what your mind knows' is what you have been able to capture in those beautiful moments in time. It(your art) can only get better with the times!!!

Adithya, It's coincidental that I now live at Manipal. You left me a comment on my Hebbal lake blog.
What you're saying is completely true. I know that everybody must say the same thing, but I just think that you put it in a way that everyone can understand. I'm sure you'll reach so many people with what you've got to say.
