Very aggravating! <br />Thanks so much for your wonderful compliments. I love sharing all those special garden spots with my friends. Glad you liked them too.<br />And yes, I'll be blogging more regularly now. Vacation's out of the way.

I'm glad you had a fun vacation, and are back to your awesome creativity! I was so impressed with these photos, I had to show my husband, who agreed with me. Welcome back to blogging.

I've been so busy travelling the last couple of months that I seriously need to sit still for some days. <br />I'm so curious about the festival that you're talking about. But I'm not surprised that it revolved arond women. Kerala is very strong on woman power ;)<br /><br />Thanks so much Thomas! I was a bit frustrated at first that I couldnt capture the beauty of the lily pond. But the close-ups stunned even me... I had no idea they looked like that!<br />I know I havent been posting much lately. Its just that I'm trying to settle back into my regular schedule and after 2 months worth of pending work piling up, its a little hectic. <br />Plus, this heat is killing me!Sunita Mohan https://www.blogger.com/profile/16395671437601246093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7433906806220848808.post-51929907798992746462009-06-13T10:21:17.642+05:302009-06-13T10:21:17.642+05:30Beautiful series on these lilies.
