Alampur Temple tableau won First prize
A Marvelous attempt..! Just a couple of days back It happened as a happiest event for the people of newly carved out Telengana state.The tableau represented from the the department of Telangana state tourism and culture for Mysore Dussera festivities bagged first prize.That sounds incredible and a good sign all over indeed.The interesting feature is a proud historical temple of Alampur's Jogulamba,the consort of Brahmeswara depicted on the tableau.Unfortunately Alampur temple did not get its due recognition though which is a spectacular architectural wonder constructed during the 7th century.With winning in the Mysore Dussera celebrations,once again the name of Alampur temple came up.Thanks to Sri Rallabandi Kavita Prasad,Director,Tourism and Culture department.
Alampur ,the temple town,located in the district of Mahabubnagar is 200 k.m.away from Hyderabad.In fact,there are nine temples in Alampur.Believed to be built by Badami Chalukyas.Still,the art and sculpture on the temples seemed intact though hundreds of years passed away.Alampur is considered as one of the 51 Saktipeethas.Surprisingly the gopuram of the temple and sculpture on the walls has resemblances with Utkala craftmanship.

ABC Wednesday
Kadamba Vanam,means a forest where doves residing in Sanskrit.I got the phrase from the poetry of Kalidasa.He described the holy mother..Durga Devi as Kadamba vana vaasineem.Thought of presenting this picture now during the season of Dussera.An important festival for the Hindus.And also which serves the letter K for ABC Wednesday.

Our World Tuesday
A wayside shrine at Rishikesh.Nearby the hanging bridges called Ram and Laxman Jhulas.The old man posed for my click was talkative and asked me to preserve it on the net.Who knows..he could see it.In fact,I didn't take his contact number to tell him.He too was not enthusiastic to provide it...Some meetings are like that.

ABC Wednesday
Have you seen the people standing in Front of the gate..Even I never have a chance to see them particularly.But it was taken when I was returning from the Taj Mahal.The house seems debris laid and the premises gates too closed.Someone told me,once upon a time, the house was a residence of a British officer.Almost failed to recollect the name to cite here. Yes,it is located on the wayside of Taj Mahal entrance.
