Of Faith & Creativity – Part II

Published by thecouple under Arts & Culture,Fun,Places

Most of us have grown up with the philosophy of seeing God in everything – in every stone, every tree, every human being, every animal and what not. Roadside temples are not anything new in India. We have earlier written about a tree with a slight resemblance to an elephant’s trunk turning into Ganpathi idol and a street side temple. (Of Faith & Creativity).

This is another interesting version. A huge rock in the Matheran hills turning into another massive Ganpathi. Clever use of colours and artistic rendering have converted this huge rock into a divine statue complete with a mouse at its feet.

This interesting piece of art is visible during the train ride from Neral to Matheran. The trekking route from Peb Fort to Matheran also passes through this new temple.

Another guess. What is a Cabel Duck?

Published by thecouple under Fun

Ask any biologist or an expert in ducks. They will tell you that there are a variety of ducks. Appleyard, Crested Ducks, Indian Runners, etc.

But what is a Cabel Duck? Even experts are at a loss.

 

Cabel Ducks

We found this board in a hotel in Mangalore. If you can guess this, leave a comment.
