A white-walled temple structure with a wooden balcony and a small red and white shrine spire with a red flag sits atop the cliff. Adjacent to it stands a weathered brick building with empty window openings. Bare leafless trees and dry brown grass cover the slope, and a thin overhead cable crosses the sky. No people are visible.2014-01-13January 13 20142014-01-13May 24 20122012-05-24A photograph of a tiered South Indian temple gopuram rising above a dense canopy of coconut palms under an overcast grey sky.

On the summit stands a small temple with a tall tiered gopuram-style tower with white and gold tones, a smaller shrine dome beside it, and a low stone wall and a single-storey building below. A city spreads across the flat horizon at right under a pale sky. No people are visible.A hazy, misty photograph of a wooded hilltop under a pale sky. Dense green trees fill the lower and middle frame, and a small multi-storey concrete building with a spire-like tower sits on the crest at right. Parked vehicles or small figures are barely visible on the slope near the building, too indistinct to identify. No people are clearly visible, and no ritual activity can be discerned.2014-01-13August 01 2009 - Kalpataru, Thiruvanaikaval, India2009-08-01May 09 20122012-05-09May 09 20122012-05-09
