The summer sun is out.

Mango Connection.

Pickled raw mango is one of Goa's most sought after delicacy.

Sunday evening by the beach.

Oceans fifteen !!

What would you collect when you cease to exist in the fury of the rain.

The arrival of southwest monsoon is a colourful time. The dance of the clouds ,blue skies and sunlight is a photographers delight.

Parasailing against the back drop of setting Sun.

Would you like some oil on your back??

Food Cover

Good food cannot be separated from Goa. Exceptions being the Himachal and Nepal cooks using the Karmas ready made Masala and calling it Goan Cuisine.

The pic here is of delicious squid rechado preparation at the Furtados Beach House at Sernabatim Goa. The kitchen here is never consistent which probably is the only reason they have not gone on favorite food map. This has been my favourite for over 18 years.

Twilight Zone.

Sparkling beaches in Goa.

Parties parties and parties. One thing that sets apart Goa from all other states in India. This is the benaulim stretch of beach in south Goa. Not very revered for party scenes but you get to experience some fireworks almost everyday.

And the gorgeous sunset in Goa

Shot from a motor boat along the tributaries of river Mandovi also called Mapusa river towards Calvim and Aldona.

Sunset in Goa

Sunsets in Goa are special no matter where you sit. Shot from a ferry boat at Rachol, Raia Goa.

Cabo de Rama fort Goa

Down south of Goa,Cabo de Rama was the southern defence of Portuguese regime. Why it is called Cabo de Rama?? I am not sure. Beyond the walls of the fort lies the real treasure. If you can walk or trek semi steep inclines do walk until the end of the world. Yes indeed end of the world. A narrow strip of land makes it way for about 500metres into Arabian Sea and you must check it out. The sight here in the photo is while you walk to the end of the world. A picture just cannot show you what it feels to sit at the tip of the land strip and enjoy 250 degrees of ocean visual.

Early morning serenity of Palolem Beach

Palolem is my favourite beach in Goa. It's just too serene and the exact way you would want your ocean to be. You can eat good food, swim or just sit by. Tan is for free. Don't miss Palolem when you are in Goa but please handle the beach with care..leave some serenity for your generations to come.

Palolem Beach South Goa

Patnem Beach Goa

It's Diwali time in Goa. Check out the spectacular effigies of the demon Narkasur who was slayed by Lord Krishna and as such the celebrations of Diwali festival.

Sunday walk!!

Temples of Goa

This is a picture of Shri Kamakshi Temple at Shiroda Goa at twilight.  

Great weather ahead in Goa

With the Clouds receding the best time of the year in Goa starts. The tourists from around the world start descending and so do the migratory birds. Paradise build up!!

Skies opening up as the monsoon steps back...

Rise of the Tides!!

This is the state of the coast line along Goa. It gets worse during high tides. The seas are slowly claiming land. (Arn if you are reading, this is how it was today in front of furtados beach house)

Cloud cover taking over! !

Make a Photograph when life hands you a hibiscus!!

Monsoon is back... went out to do the touristy thing. . Visited Donapaul to catch glimpse of the foaming fuming ocean.

Crimson Tide

Colourful Chariot at a Goan Temple

Festivities at various Goan Temples over the last month brought out the colour and the splendour of the temples and chariots which are pulled with the Deity seated on them.

Monsoon version 2.013 is in and so is the green.
