Taken in October of 2015 in Khajuraho
This is a parade procession that we passed as we were walking out to a couple of the Eastern Group of Temples at Khajuraho.
It was pretty typical, a tractor with a squawky loudspeaker playing music at about 100db beyond the speaker’s rating, pulling a trailer with a figure. There was color throwing and garlands. The works.

This mythical beast adorns the plinth at Jagadambi Temple in the Western Group of Temples at Khajuraho. I hope its breath was not foul.

Title: “A kiss so good his head exploded” Taken at Khajuraho on October 22, 2015

I love the theme of covering one’s eyes–just not all that carefully.

Taken at the Khajuraho Western Group on October 22, 2015
I just got back from a trip to Khajuraho, Varanasi, and Sarnath, and I’ll be resuming posts–starting with pictures from this visit. Here is one of one of the details on the roof of one of the Western Group of temples. (The Western Group are the most well-preserved and extensive of the surviving temples.)
