And the thinker just sat there in the comforting warmth of a clear day.. refreshed by the winds from the sea, by the breeze which might have risen in a valley of snow.
The sky, the beach, and the river that met the ocean fashioned beauty beyond compare – solemn, and deeply colored.
What is a better place to think than by a sea without limit – which was as blue as its sky?
For that was all he ever did – Think. Except on those particularly rough days when the sea was black, he would offer to take the helm.
But today was not one of those days.
He watched the last group of ducks paddle their way home to the village by the sea. It would be another hour before sun set, and it wasn’t going to rain.
I'm off on yet another weekend trip - and this time to a friend's wedding in Trivandrum.

Beautiful.....love the myriad shades of blue in the shot....and the lone ranger there adds to the composition.
have fun at the wedding, Bal :)
That photo is just brilliant.
I used to go to Kerala almost every summer when I was growing up. Heck, I was there less than 3 months ago ! But every time I went there, it was to meet my family. I never really got to see these sights and experience Kerala's beauty. It's something that's definitely on my To-do list.
aaaawesooome.
man,i never expected this great a thing when u asked me to wait for the next post.
it hurts me everytime i see anything beautiful capture. " i cant miss a place like this" and this time the pain is severe.
breathless!!!
Gr8 shot! Peaceful place ...
Trivandrum is this beautiful? How come I never see any of this? :(

i was *taken back*
as,
although i know it is not,
this amazing shot--
featuring
both still water
and crashing waves--
could be of a beach so near
my home
here in north florida...
:-)
sometimes the beach can be
so universal,
don't you think?
moi: Hey thanks for that bit.
Kerala is a great place to be poor - really.
The funny part of the outward migration is that all of the migrants spend their lives hoping to come back one day, i do too.
jack sparrow: we take most things for granted, dont we?
and when we do, we miss to see the beauty of what meets the eye.
rain tree: ha ha.. how much you can make someone jealous, in this particular case is directly proportional to how low you can hold your camera. i lying flat on my belly here. :)
