coconut seller at Chakrathirta, Hampi

On the morning of the 11th December 2024, Sridhar and I arrived at Chakrathirta around 7-45 AM. Close to Yantrodharaka Hanuman Devastana, a local man was setting up his shop. The fresh yellow trumpet flowers, known as Koranekelar in Kannada, caught my attention. Only then I realized that this simple beauty was offered to deities in Hindu temples.
