Kanyakumari shore, come sunrise

The fishing boats have returned from night's frenzied work, but the fishers must prepare again for the day's ferrying, repairs, and gossip. The beach bares some scars of the tsunami, and the skyline evinces colonialism perhaps not entirely gone: church bells compete with laughter, and the waves of three seas for the morning's attention.

Night over the tip of India

The view from our hotel room looked out over the poet's statue, the temple on an island, and the fishing boats, their lights strewn on the horizon, and moving across the three converging seas as they brought their catch back to the busy fishmarket below.
