Who doesn't dream of betterment. Who doesn't want to advance in life. Which Jester doesn't dream of one day becoming a king?

A few million years of evolution changes so much. Or does it?
These monkeys were willingly lured with a few peanuts at Sunset Point, Matheran.

Solitary Cyclist

A Solitary Cyclist makes his way across a melancholy beach as the sun prepares to depart below the horizon.
The scene some how reminded me strongly of the Sherlock Holmes story, a "The Adventure of the Solitary Cyclist"

Durga

In Hinduism, the Goddess Durga (the invincible) is the "one who can redeem in situations of utmost distress". She is the epitome of feminine power and radiance.

This photo was taken at the Lokhandwala Durgotsav. The decorations were out of the world and the idol of Maa Durga was simply stunning.
