There is no avoiding religion, religious symbols, festivals and such in India and it was the same this week. My quest for a ‘quiet’ place took me to a beautiful old friary on Hosur Road and another chapel in the heart of the busy and crowded St. John’s hospital (thanks to very helpful friends.) Do check Yvonne’s blog for her interpretation of ‘Quiet’ and join in for the next theme ‘Numbers’ to be posted on Oct 11.
‘Quiet’ also reminded me of the serene Garud Tal (Garud Lake) in Uttaranchal that we visited this summer. The most peaceful landscape I had ever been to with none of the eeriness that one feels in lonely landscapes

Oh Mridula, they are absolutely beautiful!! The second photo in B &W of the nun lost in contemplation – stunning!! I love your interpretation way better than my own! And the trees, the colouring in the photo of the trail climbing up – wow! I’m extremely impressed!
I agree with Yvonne….your photos capture “quiet” so perfectly. The photo of the nun is beautiful and evokes a feeling of peace and quiet. Fantastic interpretation.
Wonderful pictures
what a beautiful challenge. i love that. and your photos are absolutely wonderful. thank you for adding a bit of quiet to my day this morning.
It’s an interesting thought: These photographs seem to signify solitariness to me. So does quietness come from being alone or rather away from fellow human beings?
Good stuff on the blog though! Cheers.
