There is only one day left, always starting over: it is given to us at dawn and taken away from us at dusk.

Rameswaram (Inde) - Je suis tombé sur ce petit marché aux poissons en déambulant au hasard dans une partie peu passante de la ville. Nous étions en fin d’après-midi et il y avait peu d’activité. Le poisson frais est vendu le matin. Les reste de la journée seuls les marchands de poissons séchés sont actifs. Enfin, "actif" est un terme un peu abusif car vendeurs et clients, jusqu’aux chiens, étaient accablés par la chaleur. Il semblerait qu’aujourd’hui une halle moderne ait été construite à cet endroit.
I came across this small fish market while strolling around a quiet part of town. It was late afternoon and there was little activity. Fresh fish is sold in the morning. The rest of the day only the dried fish merchants are active. Finally, active is a somewhat abusive term because the salesperson and customers, including the dogs, slept more or less overwhelmed by the heat.
Rameswaram (Inde) - En Occident et dans les grandes métropoles urbaines, la plaie est le téléphone au volant. Dans certaines petites villes indiennes, on ne joue pas dans la même catégorie. Le téléphone se consulte à vélo.
Rameswaram (India) - In the West and in the big urban metropolises, the plague is the telephone while driving. In some small Indian towns, we do not play in the same category. The phone consults bike.

Rameswaram (Inde) - En traversant le village des pêcheurs on arrive devant cette petite église construite sur le sable.
Si Ramswaram est l'une des cités saintes plus plus populaires chez les hindous, le Sud du pays accueille une importante communauté chrétienne.
Rameswaram (India) - Crossing the fishing village one arrives in front of this small church built on the sand.
If Ramswaram is one of the most popular holy cities among Hindus, the south of the country is home to a large Christian community.
The town of Dhanushkodi was destroyed by a cyclone in 1964 and was never rebuilt. This photo shows the remains of a church.
Rameswaram (Inde) - Sur le marché aux poissons séchés, cette jeune femme était la seule à sembler ne pas souffrir de la forte chaleur. Elle trouvait encore la force de trier ses poissons tout en souriant.
Rameswaram (India) - In the dried fish market, this young woman was the only one who seemed not to be suffering from the high heat. She still found the strength to sort her fish while smiling.
Rameswaram - Cette photo prise au petit matin (6h30) de la première journée de mon séjour à Rameswaram, ne laisse en rien présager que le lendemain à la même heure, des milliers de pèlerins envahiront cet endroit. A cette heure, seuls quelques rares flâneurs sont présents. La lumière est étonnante. J’ai largement le temps de choisir mon cadre qui intègre la jetée en bois sur la partie gauche et le bateau à l’autre extrémité. Comme l’ensemble me semble un peu « vide », j’attends deux où trois minutes que quelqu’un s’invite dans mon image. Cet homme apparait. Il a l’air plongé dans ses pensées. Il s’arrête pour regarder je ne sais quoi ? J’ajuste mon cadrage pour parfaire la composition. C’est à cet instant que je vois l’oiseau arriver. Deux secondes plus tard je déclenche. J’estime que cet oiseau sauve ma photo. Sans lui, elle n’a plus le même intérêt. Mais ce que je n’ai pas vu - je ne l’ai constaté que le soir sur mon écran d’ordinateur- c’est que l’oiseau transporte un poisson en guise de petit-déjeuner.
Rameswaram - This photo taken in the early morning (6.30am) of the first day of my stay in Rameswaram, does not suggest that the next day at the same time, thousands of pilgrims will invade this place. The light is amazing. I have plenty of time to choose my frame which incorporates the wooden jetty on the left side and the boat on the other end. Since the whole thing seems a bit "empty" to me, I wait two or three minutes for someone to invite themselves into my picture. This man appears. He looks deep in thought. He stops and looks I don't know what !?
I adjust my framing to perfect the composition. That's when I see the bird coming. Two seconds later I trigger. I believe this bird saves my photo. Without him, she no longer has the same interest. But what I didn't see - I only saw it at night on my computer screen - was that the bird was carrying a fish.

Rameswaram (Inde) - La marée commence à descendre et les pèlerins qui, une heure auparavant, étaient réunis en une foule compactes sur la rive, peuvent désormais se répartir sur une plus grande surface d'eau sacrée, sans risquer de se noyer. Les dévots, pour la plupart, ne savent pas nager.
Rameswaram (India) - The tide begins to come down and the pilgrims who, an hour before, were gathered in a compact crowd on the shore, can now spread out over a larger area of sacred water, without the risk of drowning. Most devotees cannot swim.

Villoondi Theertham (Inde) - Ce petit village de pêcheurs est situé à 5 km de rameswaram. C’est là qu’il faut venir se baigner. L’eau y est moins polluée par les évacuations des égouts qui, à Rameswaram, se déversent directement sur la plage.
De plus à Villoondi vous pourrez louer les services d’un pêcheurs afin de faire une balade en barque ou faire de la plongée en apnée. Nettement meilleur marché qu’avec les rabatteurs des hôtels qui demandent des prix prohibitifs pour une petite sortie en mer.
Villoondi Theertham (India) - This small fishing village is located 5 km from Rameswaram. This is where you have to come for a swim. The water is less polluted by discharges of sewage, which in Rameswaram, drain directly on the beach.
In addition in Villoondi, you can hire the services of a fisherman to take a boat trip or go snorkeling. Much cheaper than the touts hotels that require prohibitively expensive for a small sea trip.
Good composition is like a suspension bridge - each line adds strength and takes none away.

The Pamban Bridge is a railway bridge on the Palk Strait which connects the town of Rameswaram on Pamban Island to mainland India. The bridge refers to both the road bridge and the cantilever railway bridge, though primarily it means the latter. Opened on 24 February 1914, it was India's first sea bridge, and was the longest sea bridge in India until the opening of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link in 2010. The rail bridge is for the most part, a conventional bridge resting on concrete piers, but has a double leaf bascule section midway, which can be raised to let ships and barges pass through.
