Butterfly and honeybee

Butterfly and honeybee are drinking nectar together in these photos. It is very difficult to click the photo of a butterfly as it flies away and honey bee can sting on getting close. But I get both of them in my picture frame and they pose nicely for me. ;) These two pics I consider to be my best shoots.

Cycle Art

In this cycle art how many cycles are used? ;)

This is 675th post! :)

Jain Temple @ Tijara

I visited Jain Temple at Tijara. It is a group of three temples. In this pic one can see the idol of Chandraprabha. The beautiful stairs make this view breathtaking! This temple is so peaceful and serene that one feels like sitting in the lap of nature. In the premises of the temple a large lawn with attractive flowers and trees is well maintained.

The main temple has a huge idol in a hall with sitting arrangement for many persons who can do prayers simultaneously. The brass bell at the entrance produces a loud dong. There is a small hall where children can enjoy the moving puppets depicting stories from mythology. Outside the temple one can purchase grocery at cheaper rates and of very good quality. Unpolished dals, chickpea, pickles, papads and badi tastes superb on cooking.

The third temple is at far off place in the interior of village Tijara. There are lots of paintings describing about the Jain philosophy of life. It is a good place to visit if one has a few hours and want to go for outing near Delhi and NCR.

Goat cart

Carts are generally pulled by oxen, camel, horse, pony, donkey, large dog and male buffalo. This is the first time I saw a cart pulled by goat. Traditionally they were used in Rajasthan to carry light weight articles and small children from one place to another.

A car of difference!

I went to Heritage Transport Museum located near Manesar. This car grab my attention as I can see my so many reflections in it. Amazingly I can see myself in all the reflections, small or large.

I can be seen clearly, clicking the photo in the circle of tyre. ;)

Edible crocodiles

While walking in a market, I saw these bakery products displayed in the window of a shop. Although different shaped bread were attractive but edible crocodiles were irresistible. The crocodiles were not scary but tasty! ;) 

Road Romeo

I attended the launch party of Road Romeo. The interiors are classic and elegant with a touch of modernity which make them unique. Wooden double doors and lamps with brass valves are the main attractions. The seafoam green color used here and there makes it lively.  

I had a refreshing mojito which had a perfect blend of mint, lemon and sugar syrup and some starters with a delightful blend of Hyderabadi and Kashmiri flavors with green spicy chutney. The owners personally attended me with love and gave me momento key-ring and bouquet of flowers. Overall it was a great experience to visit Road Romeo.
