Miss LeafyGreen 2014


My fb and blogger friend Shail Mohan , also known as the shutterbug lady, lives in what is known as Gods own Country, a state in India, blessed with great rains and greater greenery.

She has a photoblog called Shots and Captures.

This blog has  a huge set of photographs of nature, including monsoon skies, evening skies, water drops, rains and her garden.  She recently posted this amazing Bokeh visual and titled it "sleeping".

But like they say, perceptions differ.  While her perception probably has to do with a more sedate, nature-appreciating  and restful way of life,  what someone in Mumbai saw was something else.

At the end of the day, the eye of the beholder.  :-)



Beneath
the white arc lights
the slim, tall

statuesque ones,
vying for
the Miss LeafyGreen 2014,
standing together,
yet aloof,
minding
their own beauty business....
