The respite brought by the glorious Indian monsoon after a parched summer is incomparable to anything else that might bring rest
and nourishment to an aching earth and its longing souls. She’s here again with all her splendor and passion, ready to bring this land
back to its vibrant life. The images below were captured during a generous spell of the SouthWest Monsoon as she touched the mountains
of the Western Ghats recently.
These are a few glimpses from the images that were made for and captured at the gorgeous Thiashola Plantations in the Nilgiris . . .
the luxuriant swell of monsoon in the hills
among the many precious joys of the season …
rainy morning encounters
rains always show me the way …
