Tusker in rain…
” only that day dawns to
which we are awake “
~~Henry David Thoreau
I always wanted to photograph a Tusker in rain……
early morning ride….
we were just entering the forest through the bamboo thickets…..when
we heard the sound of bamboo cracking….& the bamboo near the road swayed….
It was raining…
and I was praying….
the camera was ready…and we saw this handsome fellow emerge …
In the forest …
they say everything happens suddenly &
all at once…
cutting off….
all speech…
cutting off…
all thoughts…
He emerged…..
“…….the painter is in love with colours,
The poet is in love with words…….”
~~~ Osho
and I was in love with this gentle gaint…
Beautiful photos! 😀
