 Fear for life, loosing dear ones, terror of being the next victim... all these that Covid-19 

brought for us, but time and season brought again he hope. Durgapuja, festival of prime for Bengalis had brought life back to the ones who live outside o Bengal too.
Whatever limited way, we could live a hopeful life with joy, with friends, relatives, with life, Bengalis will go for it.

Here are some of those lit up face, smiling face moments that happens this year in Shikhar Bengali group's Navami and Dashami days that I was present. The cheerfulness is contagious. Emotion is the most contagious for human.

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.
