Cottages in Bern

Why do we get enamoured of the cottages much more than palaces or large buildings? perhaps it has some thing to do with our origins or with simplicity itself. These photographs are snapped from a high rise in Bern

Banana Plants

These are the snaps taken from the garden of Devikulam Cottage in Munnar where we stayed. The banana plants give a domestic setting to the pictures. The few cottages in the frames give a certain degree of warmth to the images.

Devikulam is 1800 m above sea level and is 16km away from Munnar. It is secluded, pristine and sparsely populated. On the roads, there is no lighting. Hence, when evening falls, it is as good as midnight.
