Panchakot Raj

Nest

PURULIA

once it was fairly common in rural Bengal, getting rarer day by day

Dutch cemetery

Some 250 years ago Dutches came to Murshidabad, West Bengal for business and settled there. They left the place leaving back the beautiful looking tombs with painful memories.

Kadam

Wonder flower

Freedom

You can go anywhere, even it rains once you are on a bi-cycle helped with an umbrella!

Panwala

Chewing betel is very common in Purulia. Lot of people are engaged in preparation and selling business for their livelihood.

Clock?

Once upon a time thre was a King! The Clock shows he is no more! I took this picture Ranjan Palace, Hetampur, Birbhum, West Bengal recently.

Good Morning

Panchakot-Purulia

In a cold misty morning with a cup of tea

Banspati

Though it is a local name, the appeal is international. I owe to Bubai my sister in law to generate interest in photographing bird. This time prevented from doing a mistake to name the species. Not Basanta Bowri it Is Banspati

Power cut

It was a moonlit night. Power cut affects persons in different ways. Generators are in use at some places and also give some good photo opportunity to others.

Blue Water Lily

Though uncommon, you can still find one at Purulia

Chiks

Their mother came a long way from siberia to purulia just to give a safe birth to them. Accidentally captured by my driver. They were photographed and sent back to their mother safely with Best wishes.
