Silence of this typical sleepy rural Kerala temple is stirred by the roar of a lion. Chennai-Alleppey Express, hauled by Arakkonam's WAP 1 22002 pass by the ancient Kottaram Temple near Cherthala. The temple pond in front is filled with water lilies. Also note the typical pure white sand found in Cherthala area; which is in great demand for exports (Jimmy Jose)

Jimmy, lately your composition has improved by leaps and bounds. No more dry platform shots honouring loco drivers :-)

Great atmospheric photo. It is these line side images which are a 1000 times more valuable than the standard loco shot.
