Revived Monsoon

Yet another cached post. Hope you enjoy!

20 July 2018,

The mahanakshatra of Pushya is stirring hope of revived monsoon. Finally the glory of monsoon is back in our village. The fields are flooded and rains are relentless. The monsoon has revived and has magically turned the land to temporary lakes. The rains are crossing 200mm and the schools have declared holiday. Hopefully the saga lasts longer than expected.




Back in bangalore, the monsoon has shown some presence here too. The rains are showing up from past 3 days and it was quite heavy yesterday. Today on my weekend walk along the Rachenahalli lake, I caught those fabulous monsoon clouds (probably lazy) rushing from west horizon. The scenes are fascinating to capture for a landscape enthusiasts. The light was splendid. The clouds were everywhere. The winds were heavy. Overall, heartfelt scenes to capture.







I thought the sky would be illuminated during sunset but just when sun began sinking, a huge band of clouds hovered over the troposphere obliterating the light show. By the time, I had captured many vibrant scenes and this did not annoy so much. This time monsoon anomaly is quite noticeable. Sometimes rain and sometimes sun.






Needless to mention, it did not rain as per the intensity of clouds. Just a pinch of drizzle to contend for

Ending Note:

10 days after relentless rains, the MET department declared to expect above normal rains in next two weeks. Alas! I don't know if there is jinx associated with their declaration or nature wants to challenge human kind. The rains completely stopped later ON. It is dry spell again with intense heat.
