A clock strung among the bells! Odd! Does it signify the toll of time?!
This is Ghanteshwar or Lord of the Bells, a temple dedicated to Lord Hanuman (monkey God). This is in Khar, a suburb of Mumbai. Devotees donate a bell to the temple as and when their wishes are fulfilled. Wonder if the clock was donated by some devotee who was granted time?!

ReplyDeletehilarious caption - great monochrome shot

ReplyDeleteoriginal photo with this clock. this makes it very well in b&w.
It almost appears silver. A nice contribution to MM.
ReplyDeleteOdd, yet perfectly monochrome. Now that's a lot of bells! BJ
ReplyDeleteAt first I thought some of the bells were bead. The clock adds interest and certainly makes me wonder why it is there. I like the shot a great deal. Carver's Photoblog
ReplyDeleteAnother fascinating shot! I'll bet the bells make a lovely sound. And who knows, maybe the alarm clock chimes in once a day...!
ReplyDeleteInteresting story behind the photo.
ReplyDeletePerhaps it means time is a wasting and they want their wish NOW. Or maybe their answer to prayer for their wishes is more time or their time ahs run out? Whatever the significance, it is a fantastic odd shot.
ReplyDeleteCome and see mine.

Great capture and an interesting story about the bells. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThe bells are odd in their own right as a photographic composition. The clock just adds. I would like to see the bells in their natural color as well.
ReplyDeleteBefore I read the caption I was sure it was pirate booty! Ahoy!

Very interesting and a great shot.
ReplyDeleteWonderful! A bit like a game of "spot the odd one out"
ReplyDeleteThis image wouldn't be half as interesting in color. Good post!
ReplyDeleteMaybe the clock was donated by someone wondering what was taking so long?
ReplyDeleteExcellent photo in any case. And I'd have to agree, that it wouldn't have been nearly as interesting in color.
