EVERY DAY HAS A NEW SURPRISE IN VIDARBHA

RELIGIOUS FERVOUR IN WARDHA...

REAL LIFE DRAMA ON THE STREETS OF VIDARBHA

HUMOUR, PAIN, SORROWS, APATHY ARE ALL ON THE STREETS...


This cow wants a ride in auto and is not ready to listen...


This Tea Centre has become a source for wet clothes to dry...


So much concentration for his job... Hats off!


Even something distracting is not disturbing the cobbler...


The long wait for the bus to arrive...


All set to leave, here comes the bus...


God, once again the wrong bus...


The cow seems least interested of the city life...


The agony & pain of a man & a woman...
(while my bus was moving, I just shot this pics without looking through the viewfinder)


Waiting for the passengers to arrive...


Life goes on as usual in city...

Regrowing in splendour...


Amazing grace...


Cows resting under the tree...

THE BONDING OF FARMERS & CATTLE... (9th Feb 2011)

THE BONDING OF FARMERS & CATTLE...


The King...




Thy Kingdom...




Incomplete without each other...





A Stop on the way to market...





Serious business at work...




At leisure enjoy the grazing...




Returning home in a disciplined manner...




The master enjoys a cup of tea after a hard day's at work...

NATURE'S BEAUTY...
