The pigeon tree

There are more pigeons than leaves on this tree :)

Spring is here.. :)

Its very difficult to experience spring in Mumbai. Yet it comes every year, for however brief a period may be. This peepul tree is going over a new makeover. I liked the different colours and shades of leaves that it had.

E Masakkali !!

Early morning time at Gateway, Mumbai. Tranquility all around, only to be broken intermittently by the flapping of pigeon wings. Even the deep throaty pigeon calls had blended into the serenity of the moment.

The last flight of the day....

One thing I am certain - all sunsets are unique. You will always find something different and astounding everyday during sunset - be it clear skies or be it the clouds. Here, as the sun goes down, the bird takes a last sweep of the skies; before returning back to it's nest.

My dil goes 'mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm'

Pralines were first made in France, but were made more famous in the Southern states of U.S. Originally, they only meant sugar-coated almonds. Now, they are made with many 'mmmmmmmmmmm' fillings coated with caramel or chocolate.....
Well, I was just lucky enough to gather so many together.. before they would all disappear, I thought I will click this snap..

and the Bell tolls...

@Kala Ghoda Festival, Mumbai.
This huge bell (and the little ones) suspended from a tree is made from papier mache - keeps on swaying above us as we walk past it.

Wear your creation!!

@Kala Ghoda Festival, Mumbai. It's an annual cultural festival, where the street 'Kala Ghoda' and the nearby areas transform into a place of fun, colour, imagination and razzmatazz. Apart from plays, films and dance performances, there are many stalls displaying art and handicrafts.
This stall displays T-shirts with hand-painted designs. As someone said "Anyone can paint!!"
