My weekend... (Sunday).

2009.08.30

This deity obviously has pagan origins. Found outside the temple doors everywhere in Himachal. The coins, chains, horse-shoes and other thingumabobs you see are offerings of satisfied customers.

One of the many truly beautiful women I met this weekend. Got talking to her and when we said goodbye she gave me several heads of broccoli and a big hug. Also an injunction to return someday.

The six-storied temple at Pangna. Where I left my heart behind.... (And I'm not even a religious person!)

The little dish-washer of Shankar-dehra.

Well, d-uh, small waterfall.

ShangriLa I hope he's only washing dishes to help his mum. Poor little bunny.

Is it pagan because its not a Hanuman or Ganesha etc? Its not really that obvious to me as a non-hindu.

Tulpje Beautiful shots, your books should be 'Faces of Shimla' it would be a hit (well... I would buy it, hehe). #1 doesn't look pagan at all to me :-D
