| Deepavali day (Wed, 26-Oct-11), around 2:00 pm at the Marina beach [Click to view at a better size] Panorama stitch using Microsoft Image Composite Editor of 5 individual photos taken in sequence |
Nice horizon contrast with the northern side being bright and blue and the southern side growling dark with grey.
But, where were the crowds?
Maybe the plethora of TV movies kept them glued, or the new film releases kept them screened, or the intermittent rains reined them in, or the festival hogging kept them in sloth!
The beach looked fine from afar, but where the waves lapped, it was definitely yuck. Junk and garbage throughout, including an animal carcass. Less of plastic though, but lots of other junk. Maybe we (the people) will learn its value only after we lose it.
Spent around 45 minutes at the beach and as we returned back home, it poured for an hour or so. Guess we were plain lucky that day!
Note: The picture resolution and hence quality is reduced as to not tax the Indian Internet. :-)
