Thirumala Hills


We got up at about 4 AM n my god the entire thirumala was buzzing with activity. This place is never asleep with influx n outflux of people round the clock.We came to this place for two reasons. One - to experience the thrill of driving long distance . Two - photography experience. Its not that I am an atheist, I believe a lot in god but not the idea of idol worship n gratifying god by doing favours to him, cos he doesent expect that. I captured this shot just at the break of dawn. It was a fabulous experience just to be there. It felt like we were in a whole new world, without the knowledge of our parents. The weather was chill, mist everywhere, the ' omkaras ' [The chant of Ommmmmmmmm ] resonated the air.The gopuram at the center, a sea of people, the mountains as a backdrop, the mist and the clouds above make this picture very special to me.
