Happy Diwali

I have not been able to post my entries for Today's Flowers, Odd Shots On Monday and  Ruby Tuesday this week as I was busy with Deepavali preparations.
From the next week, I will post as usual.
Have a great week!

Ruby Tuesday #8

Today's Flowers #8

Yellow bells / yellow trumpet flowers photographed in Millennium Towers Complex in Sanpada, Navi Mumbai.

Odd Shots On Monday #9

There are a few of these Odd signs in the green spaces (small spaces developed into garden area) outside Vashi Railway Station. I noticed that no one would really stoop down to reach the outlet there to drink water, when drinking water is freely available at all the food stalls at the station complex.

A closer look at the sign (all of them) revealed that 'sewage'' was spelt 'sawage' which is also odd, because the painting work is often given to people who don't know proper English.

This outlet is hardly a few inches higher than ground level.

Ruby Tuesday #7

Fortress with a red gate built in honour of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj

Shivaji Maharaj was the famous Maratha (of Maharashtra) king in the 17th century, when India was being ruled by Mughals. An able warrior and leader with far- sightedness, he saw the dangers of foreign domination and acted quickly to control it.

Odd Shots #8

This is Juhu Beach again, where Krrish and I had icecream and Kala-Khatta gola last weekend.

Cows and bulls on the streets is not an uncommon sight here, but this bull was resting right next to the pav bhaji and gola stall. It was surely an odd sight and Krrish wanted to be reassured that it wouldn't attack us while he was gorging on strawberry icecream and me slurrping Kala-Khatta gola.

Ruby Tuesday #6

A shop window at Infiniti Mall in Andheri West. The steel lamp bends over a vase with an interesting set of floral stems. It would've been more beautiful in evening lights. At daytime, I got the shot with the reflection of across the road. If you look carefully, you will see the vase.

Ixora Coccinea - Santan Flower

Odd Shots On Monday #7

As I walked up the pedestrian path on Palm Beach road, which is built over the railway line and Vashi railway station, I looked down to see the railway line and the greenery near it. I saw this portion of a pipeline on the ground. It was an unexpected sight and also Odd-looking, in the middle

of nowhere.
