[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Kerala meaning 'the land of coconuts' lies at the southernmost tip of India. It stretches along the coast of the Arabian Sea and is separated from the rest of the sub continent by the steep Western Ghats.
Today, Kerala is known all over the world as a unique destination. The National Geographic Traveler calls it one of the ten 'Paradises Found' in the world, for its diverse geography and overwhelming greenery.
This view of coconut trees and the backwaters is from a village called Mayyand. This place the Mukkam lake meets Arabian sea. Through the palms you can see the arabian sea on the other side .It was a cloudy day so the sky was dull, hope you will not mind it.
