I have always felt a special bond with the monuments at Hampi, and this monsoon was no exception. I journeyed there, hoping to capture reflections. At 3 pm, I visited Virupaksheshwara Temple, which just reopened after lunch. As people began to enter, a gut feeling made me lift my camera & the frame burst to life with local women in vibrant sarees, evoking the charm of a 90s evening at the temple. Though I missed the reflections, I left with a memory that will stay etched forever in my mind & soul.
