Its rainy fury over the Western ghats. The hills are collapsing like flowing water, the rain gauge is crossing 200mm everyday, the rivers are entering the human habitats, the skies are exploding, the rains are unrelenting, towns are morphed into islands, the roads caved in, . The skies together with rainforests are enraged due to human malpractices. When pristine rainforest is morphed into rubber plantations, when tall pinnacles are culled for tea plantations, when resorts engulf the bio diversity hot spots, the disaster ensues.
Time to restore the lost treasure for future generations
These pictures were snapped when Monsoon had just begun its show. Now the picture is entirely different. Some places are not even in picture due to the ruckus created by monsoon rains.
For now, get ready to immerse in the beauty of nature and behold its divinity.
Apart from the eternal greenery, the Charmadi ghat is also known for myriad of unnamed seasonal waterfalls which are pleasure for eyes and soul. You spot them every 500m during monsoon season diving right onto your feet! Most of them is seen beside the main highway. Many of them lurking deep inside rainforest which are accessible only after monsoon season. The monsoon glory of nature obliviates the torment and rejuvenates the moment. Watch out for leeches amidst the excitement.

I love the 'cottony' appearance of the water [achieved through proper setting of the exposure time], the lush greenery and atmospheric misting. Just a beautiful set of images...kudos... And, yes, the raping of the environment does not bode well for man.
ReplyDeleteSo green and tropical. Love the waterfall shots!
