"Samudra Mathana" scene from #Hindu lore. In the foreground is "Koorma" (turtle, Wishnu's 2nd incarnation) carrying the "Meru" mountain on his back as gods and demons tug on "Shesha" the serpent to churn the "Indoo" ocean for "amrita" (elixir). #ama
This portrait hangs at Adamaru Matha, #Udupi #India. Its odd dimension and narrow location made it hard to photograph, but several tries and some digital lifting produced decent result, I think. (Shot on Feb. 21, 2025)
PS: This Friday was (is) "Koorma Jayanthi", the birthday of Koorma.

View from the balcony, at #sunrise. 🌅
Love how the golden rays gently light the tree on the right, and light the idols on the left performing the morning's "aarathi". 🙇‍♂️
#ama about the setting.
