Webb Bridge, Yarra’s Edge – Melbourne Docklands.
The Ganesh Pol, or Ganesh Gate is one of the four gates in the City Palace of Jaipur. Ganesh is the Hindu God of intellect and wisdom. He is the first son of the deity Shiva, and his wife Parvati, and is depicted as large bellied, 4 armed and with the head of a one-tusked elephant. He is attended to by a mouse, often aslo depicted. In Sanskrit, ‘Ga’ represents Buddhi (or intellect), and ‘Na’ represents Vidnyana (wisdom). A crop of a crop. Crooked, but happy with what was salvaged. In the City palace, the Ganesh Pol is in the middle of the west wall of the courtyard of the Diwan-i-Am (court, or literally ‘lounge’ of the ordinary person, as opposed to the Diwan-i-Khas) and leads into the Pritam Niwas Chowk through the famous Peacock Gate.
Inside the Hawa Mahal, looking towards the main structure, which contains the 853 windows which the Queens (Maharanis) of Jaipur used to view the city and enjoy the royal procession when the Maharaja would enter the city, victorious from battle as commander of the Mughal army (an interesting situation engineered by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh wedding his daughter to the Mughal emperor’s son to bring peace to Jaipur).

Playing peek a boo with a white weasel. No matter how much I tried, I couldn’t get this little guy to sit still for 2 seconds! Photographed in rural Saskatchewan.

I decided to revisit the tree shown in ‘Alone’. I wanted to get a closer look at this tree and hoped to capture its character from a new perspective. Before I ventured off to get a close up I snapped a quick distance shot with the sun setting through the tree and clouds. The result is this awe inspiring photo that just draws me in. The tree is firmly planted to the north of the small town Abbey in Southwest Saskatchewan.
