Pictures of my quaint little town, taken with Nokia N-97 - 5 mpx and Nokia N-70 - 2 mpx mobile cam. Karwar is the Head-Quarter of North Kanara district in Karnataka state, India, on the shores of the Arabian Sea. Surrounded by Western Ghat (mountains) on the East and South, the River Kali to the North, and the Arabian Sea, which comprises a chain of Islands.

Flowers, anyone...
A near permanent fixture at the Flower Chowk (Main Rickshaw Stand) at Karwar is this Lady, who has been here since more than 60 years, selling Flowers, local fruits, Cashewnuts and locally grown vegetables.

Many ladies recall, going to her asking for the prices, and if they do not have flowers in their hair, she will make such ladies stop, wear a woven flower, and will sermonize on how a "Sumangali" should be.
If you happen to be in Karwar, then definitely give a try.
