One of the first things I did after arrival at Varkala was to buy, drink and eat a fresh coconut. This guy runs the coconut business since many years, the fact is proven by the huge pile of coconut shells behind his stand. He's is very proud that he never lost a finger - a miracle!

I know the shot has lost highlights and other technical flaws, but I liked the single bird that kept a jealous watch over Varkala beach.

A family of rhesus monkeys (Macaca Mulatta) followed us on our ascent to Edakkal Caves. They came really close and kept still - perfect models, indeed!

A very nice encounter at a bus stop near Edakkal Caves, the girl's eyes were simply amazing! Obviously, she's thinking about a career in the security business, at least she tried the cap of the security guard.
