Ganesh (Ganpati) Visarjan in Mumbai: Faces of God

Walking with the crowd of devotees is quite an experience. Whether it was Kumbh in 2013 or the big Ganesh Visarjan in Mumbai this year, I enjoyed it to the fullest. Crowds do not bother me, in fact they offer me excellent opportunity for photography :)

Sharing some of the images of different forms of Lord Ganesha from the Visarjan in Mumbai this year. I am sure we can all find our favourites in these :)

  2. Hi Siddhartha, there may be any story to fit the description, however try to understand the real meaning of Ganapati and you will realise the stories like head transplant are meaningless
