evading evil eye

Captured this one on the streets of Bangalore. Nimbu-Mirchi garland (lime-chilli) consists of several green chillies strung together with a yellow lime at the bottom or the middle. It is believed that this will repel envious looks. Lumix fz200, f2.5

A painter and an artist.....@lifeatthebackyard

Namasthe

Village, photography, nature, garden, friends, travel, kerala, kochi, India, keralatourism; that's it in a nutshell. The call of farming lures me these days. The smell of the wet soil, the chirping birds, the butterflies, the sound of water falling on the leaves, the fresh shoots, the Cherai beach..are striking a chord with me. I started loving them all, and they respond with greenery and peace of mind. The canvas is not complete yet. I have just started painting it green...I love it.

My subjects evolve in and around our backyard at the small town Varapuzha, which is just a stone's throw away from the Kochi city in the state of Kerala of India. Sometimes my focus shifts to nearby areas as well. Hope you will like it.
