Udaipur photo story (2013)

Udaipur is a city in Aravali hills with history in its roots and on skin. Wherever you go, you can see time clock probably stopped some 100 or more years back. And today's effort is only putting lots of makeup at places where technology and business gets help.
In attitude of locals, their words (quite less they speak though), gestures, dresses in some cases, walls of their houses, all the old palaces, alleys, night with bare minimum light sources will tell you how it always was. That's how geography plays with history.

But if you want to know your world, your country, you must visit Udaipur. Kings there were probably didn;t fight much with outsiders as their palaces are intact and well kept (good for us, good for them).
 The city now is quite polluted as you can see in the photo below 9taken from a hilltop temple Karni mata temple).

Kaas plateau - impossibly natural

You are lucky if you stay near Satara. If not, pack your camera, reach Kasara or Pune to reach this place. You will be welcome by a patient nature who did impossibly natural beauties there. We had hard time trying close our jaws and keeping our eyes open. Kaas is a flower land, a plateu full of varieties of flowers. They grow naturally, they live for a short time, like any other beauties. And the place keep on bringing new varieties within days. It all happens in June to October beginning, depending on temperature, humidity of the time. Lets stop talking or reading, start seeing the faint tr that me could through a mere light sealed box and lenses.
