Some pics from Kodagu









Do these people know that these are examples of what is called as 'henotheism' in the west? Wall paintings from the Omkareshwara temple in Madikeri, the capital city of Kodagu (the actual name of the anglicised 'Coorg') District.

Look at the busy traffic waiting for green light at a traffic signal in Madikeri.

Karthik (black shirt, lots of hair on the face) overseeing the stepney change. Notice his stylish pose of sitting. How far behind is the West in fashion!Incidentally, wikipedia article on stepney says that the word is used only in India in that sense.

But for the last pic which made me go yuck, liked it. Incidentally stepney is the name of the street parallel to the street I live in.
