Hi @TravellerG,

Thanks for your reply!

Yeah, I am sure it is. I wish one day can visit such festival and take such amazing photos like you.

[TravellerG]

Your kind words are really motivational, ear @aaryesdee - Incidentally, how was your holiday? kindly tag me in your posts, please.

Thanks

Thank you for your kind words, dear @MortenSI - "... how beautiful those elephants are!..." - that too dozens of them - one year, I read that the total number reached 150 count.

[TravellerG]

God willingly, you will fulfill your wish, dear @PoliMC - all the best

That's incredible @TravellerG, I can't even imagine where they would find so many elephants, let alone train them to behave so well during such a massive event. 

There's no doubt elephants are extremely intelligent creatures, and I think it's amazing how such big animals can be around us small humans, and not do any harm at all.

Hi Dear @MortenSI -You are very correct - it still a mystery... If you happen to watch a video, then you will understand, that along with (Extremely) LOUD MUSIC (Panchavadyam) and shouting & screaming of people, still these elephants keep cool, that too for HOURS!

For your info: There is an UNBELIEVABLE scene - if you see even the video, your body will freeze... The Tallest (Gaja Raja) elephant comes out of temple, to a crowd of "Thousands Human Beings". Shocking...

Let me try for some videos, shortly.

Thank you Sir Ji'!

My trip was very memorable. I posted several reviews.

Infact I too have a collection of #templesofindia , but not as professional as yours. 

Thanks & Regards

I would love to see that video @TravellerG, it sounds crazy!

Witnessing this event in person would be a dream to me. I will have to see if I can make it happen some day.

"...rip was very memorable. I posted several reviews..." excellent - happy to hear that; I have seen all of them; I again suggest to TAG like-minded people in your post so that we can enjoy your posts.

"...In fact I too have a collection of #templesofindia , but not as professional as yours..." - I am of the opinion, here we are LGs and not Pros - please add your experiences - I will surely wait for some of the important temples, for sure.

Thanks, dear friend @aaryesdee
