Hi there,
VMR... would love to see what you came up with. I made this image after our chat, in BR Hills. Yes, that Honne Mara is a beauty ~ with its lovely yellow flowers. In fact, VMR - this season - early March - is one of my favorites for BR Hills. Dried undergrowth, bare trees, erythrina, butea, and bombax in bloom, terminalia bellarica flush (there is a beauty near muradi road, no?) ... ohhh i must come back for a few days at least!
Nilanjan-da - i tried exposing the curve on the left corner in the version on the illustration forum, but didnt quite like it much. i like the mystery of this version
Ganesh - i thought you were kidding (or speaking of the larger forum) when you said you didnt recognize the seed... yes, it is Honne Kayi! And why not, next time let's have the CNP meet near some honne maras and you can teach us all to play with the kayis
Nothing more fun than still being a kid.
Nirlep: maybe because of the way i shot it, i found it slightly better facing upward ... i need to be able to leave the "actuals" behind...
Thanks again guys, glad the image resonated.
A
