"Sharing is Caring" captures a moment of quiet humanity I was fortunate to witness above the vibrant, narrow lanes of Chennai. During the lunch hour, I saw more than just a group of women sharing a meal—I saw the essence of community. Gathered close, they broke bread and the day’s silence with conversation. Their circle of care extended beyond themselves, as they offered food to a resting dog nearby. This image stands as a gentle reminder of the simple, universal kindness that binds us all.

Gopinatham, Karnataka 571490, India
During my photographic journey to Gopinatham I didn’t expect to find myself standing at Veerappan’s grave.A few elderly villagers sat nearby. One of them walked up, placed vibhuti on our foreheads, and quietly said he had met Veerappan. “He was a good man” he added without hesitation.In that moment I realized that for them he wasn’t just a bandit. He was a person they remembered differently. It wasn’t a place to argue or question. Just to observe, absorb and respect.I took a photo thanked him and left the place quietly. Some stories aren’t told through words.

Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu, India
The Brihadeeswarar Temple in Thanjavur, built over 1,000 years ago by Raja Raja Chola I in 1010 CE, stands as a timeless stone marvel of South India. Carved entirely from granite, its towering vimana (about 66 meters high) remains one of the tallest of its kind in the world. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the temple is not only a feat of Chola engineering but also a living symbol of devotion, art, and architectural brilliance that has endured for a millennium.
