WPC: Heritage

For this week’s photography challenge, I am going to post three world heritage sites that I had the pleasure of visiting.

Sian Ka’an Heritage site in Mexico

WPC: Surprise

I have got three surprises for you this week 😉

As part of the Christmas decorations in a shop here in London, this cute little creature is the surprise gift from inside a stocking. Would you say no?

As you all know already, cats and I don’t get along very well. But this little fellow surprised me when I was taking photographs of these decorations in a Temple in Chennai. These decorative pieces usually adore the outer walls of the temple.

and last, but not the least is my homemade carrot and coriander soup, which surprisingly came out very well (not that it takes much effort but given that I am not a great fan of cooking …well, you know…) and it went well with some sunflower seeds and a cashew nut.

WPC: Solitude

Solitude gives birth to the original in us, to beauty unfamiliar and perilous – to poetry. But also, it gives birth to the opposite: to the perverse, the illicit, the absurd.”

WPC: Resilient

“A good half of the art of living is resilience.”
