Mylapore Peacock - Richard Reeve

From the Kapaleeswarar temple in Mylapore, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.

Shakti was the wife to Shiva, the god of destruction. In a fit of temper, which he later regretted, Shiva transformed her to a peacock, or mayil in Tamil. The city of Mylapore, which is now a part of Chennai (Madras) is named after this goddess, who is worshiped as the creator of change.

I am a visual story teller based in southern Pennsylvania, USA and my imagery is inspired from everyday objects and situations I encounter through my travels. My work has been exhibited and sold at the Bradford Avenue Galleries (Allinson Gallery and Huston Gallery) at Chester County Art Association, in addition to this online store. My images have also been exhibited at Panorama XXL, Rouen, France and the Cincinnati Museum Center, Cincinnati, USA. I hope you will find something that inspires you, amuses you, makes you think, smile, frown, or perhaps just scratch your head. Go on, dive in... and for those of you who do so, I offer a big thank you for looking through my window on the world! ~Richard ReevePhotos Inspiring...
