When we visited the Perindiniya Gardens in Sri Lanka, I took many many close up photographs. But this one stood out. It wasn’t like just any other flower. But it had something more to it. In a way it reminded me of crackle chocolates, in other ways it reminded me of corn that had been bitten into. In yet another way, it reminded me of a lovely, beautiful opening of many flowers but visible to the eye only in a close up.

Red. The walls of the Junargarh fort epitomise royalty and the skillful craftsmanship of nimble fingers have left their marks on them. Awestruck by intricacy, colour, contrast and hardwork, one can just keep staring at it and never get bored. – Junargarh Fort, Bikaner, Rajasthan.
