Diwali - When Gods Killed Demons

Through out my childhood I have spent most of my time studying Amar Chitra Katha comics on our mythology. They were amazing! Even after so many years and after reading reading several versions of our epics, they are still very appealing!

Narkaasura being killed and people celebrating the death of a Demon in the hands of a God thousands of years ago, we still celebrate with lot of pomp and hope. Some pictures of my diwali this time.

Bird's Eye View

Birds have all the fun. Reuters has put up some great aerial shots together. Breathtaking. Birds which enjoy this view all the time must have one exciting life. Only wish they had more evolved brains to think beyond eating, nesting, surviving and predating. Click here.

Some more pics of Nagarjuna Sagar

Unfortunately, we started very late in the afternoon from the city and hence did not go till the dam. We just went till very outskirts of Sagar and returned back. Actually we all wanted a long drive and we had a fantastic drive, so not really complaining.

Last weekend, I went visiting Nagarjunasagar with my family. It was absolutely fantastic experience. I have been to Sagar several times before, but the experience is always exhilarating. I tried capturing the speed of drive in the picture, and this drove my mom crazy. She even threatened to get down and take a bus back. Obviously driving with one hand at 130kmph and shooting pictures on a single lane was not her choicest way of having fun.
