A Snake crosses my path.....

Found this Rat snake slithering across the Highway under the 5 O'clock sun. I was on my Vespa, when i saw this, screeched to a halt. The snake stopped in its tracks, and sensing no motion, slithered down the bushes.

I was too mesmerized with the view of the snake's delicate but purposeful movement, and by the time i fished my mobile Cam out of my pockets, the snake had its head in the bushes...

A Pig crossed my Path - February Theme - Paths and Passages

"Man looks down on dog
Cat looks down on Man
But pig stares Man in the eye
And sees his equal"
- Sir Winston Churchill
This is the Second Picture Post for the February Theme - Paths and Passages, and its a Pig Crossing my path. This pic was taken last week at Mashem, just after Karwar. And Yes, it was not unlucky for me. But it would have been unlucky for the Pig, as it was crossing the busy National Highway no.17 - Karwar-Goa Highway. The pig was fortunate, cos nothing of that sort happened. :-)

Pathway across the River. - February 2009 Theme

I found and captured this foot bridge at Amdalli Fishing port. Its essentially a fishing bridge with wooden planks to block the water from moving out during the low-tide, to catch/trap the Fish that had moved in during the High tide.

The Theme for the month February 2009 is "Paths and Passages" on CITY DAILY PHOTO portal... Click here to view thumbnails for all participants
