Around this second (and hopefully every following) மாசிகம், I hope to post some photos related to my father. He himself was very fond of taking photos and I have digitized almost of his photo albums. I sent him a good number of these printed out (from the digitized versions) through my good friend Praveen in 2021.
I start with some photos that he took of his mother, whom he was very fond of
The next set of photos are from his native village Jeeyapuram (please see the lovely posts of Sethuraman Mama @
http://jeeyapuram.blogspot.com), and Trichy, Srirangam and surrounding areas.

There is a remarkable set of articles on this lovely temple by Sethuraman Mama starting here. On 2 recent trips to Jeeyapuram, the first in June and the next in July, I took multiple pictures of the temple. Two photos, from each of these 2 trips, are added below.

We passed through Mukkombu on this (June 2023) trip, but did not take any photos :-( There was so much water in the Kaveri. We took a LOT Of photos at Kallanai, some of which are posted below.
