Thirukachi Devathi Rajar - cattle horn view !!

 

Emperuman has thiruveethi purappadu providing darshan to devotees at their place !   We feel very happy and fulfilled in having His darshan, even from a distance.

 


Here is darshan of Sri Devathirajar on the streets of Kanchipuram on day 6 of His Brahmothsavam, seen through the horn of a bull. 

Cattle are attractive, more so with big curved horns.  Horns continuously grow throughout the cattle's life and reflect nutritional status—weak or brittle horns may indicate deficiency. 

Pictured here is Sri Devapperumal (Thirukachi Varadharaja Perumal) through a framing angle of horns creating a natural arch around the vahanam at a distance – trying to present the composition in a symbolic, ceremonial and visually appealing.  


We all know of  Bird's-eye view: an elevated perspective as if observing from a bird in flight.  The opposite to that is : Worm's-eye view: from low to the ground looking upward.   Other common camera angles include eye-level (parallel to subject), high angle (less extreme than bird's-eye), low angle (less extreme than worm's-eye), and Dutch tilt/oblique angle (tilted camera creating instability). 

Tried here is : "Seeing through bull horns"  photography composition where you position the camera low, looking up through the gap between a bull's curved horns

 
Interesting

Varadhar pavalakkal vimanam 2015

 

A photo of 2015 – Sri Varadhar purappadu at Thiruvallikkeni

 


Just like "Rip Van Winkle"  a kind-hearted, lazy villager   who escapes his nagging wife by hiking into   Mountains;  falls asleep for 20 years – after 11 odd years the people in the pic especially the iconic photographer has not changed much
