world as seen through the “padippura”

warning sign

For audience who doesn’t know malayalam, here is it : “Warning:Please don’t go near elephants“.

Thanks for the Warning and symbo they have kept through out the place,but all these are only intented for malayalee tourists ? I could see soooo many people visiting this place and why there an importance for regional language here ?

Very recently i read a journal wriiten by Ram,bringing out  nuances of keralites,but does this picture contradicts the same ?

Quilon beach:This particular place is between aleppy-quilon.Although this place looks very calm now,situation was very bad sometime back.This is one of the places struck badly by Tsunami last year .Somehow with others aid,people over here are living a new life,trying hard to forget the past

shelter

this is the most restless elephant which i saw here .he was movin all around as if like “something went wrong”…when i were about to photograph him,he stared me for a while and then posed well
