Tamarind, fine bitter fruity tasting like lemon and rather sticky to peel and eat it as such.
After 5 days of drying in the sun, this old lady was peeling the Tamarind in the shade. It is used in the kitchen as a flavouring spice in cooked meals. She gave some, hard to refuse.
Tamarand trees are very common in Tamil Nadu, also ornamental used to provide shade and loved by the monkeys too for the ripened fruit.
Taken on the countryside in a small farmers village on the way to Mungalam.
Hello Mr Oochappan. I'd guess this is a fine choice as a first photograph to post. After all, geometric forms and their juxtaposure are one way among others to build an enigmatic path towards knowledge (should it be the discovery of others or perhaps only our environment). Both the triangle and the circle balance the left half of the frame, setting the resumé of the human's life complexity seen on the foreground. I hope you enjoy this new travel of yours, and wish you success in your revealing of Tamil Nadu.
Nice to Meet u at Usefim, Henk. Awating for your excellent images. Regarding this it is a good documentary one. Nice angle of view and good representation. Partha:) :)
