Mosaics: India is a perfect example of how cultures, faiths, and their architectural lives can be influenced, morphed, and even birthed, colliding with existing systems, invasive ones, both docile and aggressive, and newborn counterparts too, propelled by time and time alone, through aeons and generations. For this particular post, let's reflect a little about architectural impact. What you see in his picture is amalgamation of religious structures of South India. If you've been to southern part of the subcontinent, you'll have noticed that most, if not all, hindu temples have a tall flag mast or Dhwaja-Sthambham erected besides the main temple. This was once, and rarely still is, used as a flagmast for rites and ceremonies, and is claimed to have scientific purpose of acting as a lightning arrester. This statue that we see here is mounted on top of exactly the same kind of mast, that is disjoint from the main shrine structure but is connected. This is a common sight with Churches of Kerala and Southern Tamilnadu, and mostly associated with Syrian Christian Shrines that have visible influences from Jewish and Hindu architecture here, signifying that peaceful and harmonious coexistence is not a fool's dream, even in the aftermath of colonial division between the natives where religion was wielded as a separatist's dream weapon. On a side note, notice the symmetry in the frame. When capturing structures that have tiers/layered constructs, symmetric captures tend to appeal to my perceptions more, as compared to simpler compositions where I do not weigh it as much, prioritizing a fresh approach than a regular and appealing take. #hymnofhues ~A.J. . #RetchakarChurch #Kanyakumari #Kanyakumaridiaries #tamilnadudiaries #tamilnaduphotography #tamilnadutourism #photographersofindia #photographersofhyderabad #photographersoftamilnadu #poio_ #TLPicks #oyocation #travelrealindia #_coi #picxy #indiadiaries #natgeoyourshot #traveldiariesindia #_soi #piers #photoaddicts20 #india_highfive_photography #pierofkanyakumari #kanyakumaripier #kanyakumarisunrisepoint #kanyakumariviewpoint #coloursofindia #_m_o_i #_soi (at Kanyakumari Pier) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2zL_o7Jp_4/?igshid=dgj07iu3kzi7

To landless horizons: This picture was taken from the "Kanyakumari Pier" or "the pier of Kanyakumari" that lies to the exact North of the Vivekananda Rock Memorial, tip of India. This is a view that changes shades, dawn through dusk. Mornings here are usually accompanied by humungous oceanic clouds that seem to sprinkle a sense of peace even when they don't rain. Just gazing at them for however long you manage to stay lost in thought, brings a soothing start or climax to your day. I suggest being here both at dawn and dusk, for there is no better vantage to open seas from Kanyakumari than from here. You can get here on foot, from the Amman temple. There are a couple of Churches and a mosque nearby. And the street vendors asking these streets have some delicious snacks ranging from idli to vadapaav and manchurian to choleBature. Evenings here are way less crowded as this is dubbed a sunrise point . ~A.J. . #Kanyakumari #Kanyakumaridiaries #tamilnadudiaries #tamilnaduphotography #tamilnadutourism #photographersofindia #photographersofhyderabad #photographersoftamilnadu #phoindoffl #hymnofhues #TLPicks #travelphotography #travelrealindia #_coi #picxy #LPMIxWPD #lpmicontest #indiadiaries #indiapictures #natgeoyourshot #yourshotphotographer #snapseedindia #traveldiariesindia #_soi #piers #seapiers #pierofkanyakumari #kanyakumaripier #kanyakumarisunrisepoint #kanyakumariviewpoint (at Sunrise Point, Kanyakumari) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1Q7IkvpHSi/?igshid=h9r3y2ygh7xp
