What Catches the Eye?

Aum Namah Sivaya

This month our island has seen a near-complete return of our large tourist population, but that also means that many of the aadheenam's devoted pilgrims are beginning to return as well. In just one example (of many) the Tanzi's from Boston have arrived for an extended stay on the island. Their daughter Lyla took these artistic photos to share with all of you. A reminder that this tropical and sacred paradise is still here, as silent and reenergizing as ever. Perhaps you yourself will be seeing it soon? Aum.

See if you can spot this cactus next time you\

And as Siva dances

A bonsai banyan tree that is a jungle giant in spirit

Photography as an art form

A little lizard with a palm tree for hair

These ones love the warmth and safety of the nearby rock gardens

A the red coral tree is producing its polyps!

Siva, in yet another form
