Help needed

by Habitual Perfectionist » Wed Sep 29, 2004 5:44 am

Hi everyone....the process trainer who had come over from the US to train my team is highly interested in Indian culture. He wanted me to send him some snaps of the Ganesh immersion ceremony from Hyderabad. Wanted to see how Hussainsagar looks with all the processions around it and he also didn't believe me when I told him that some idols are as high as 15 feet.



Unfortunately, the firewall at my workplace is kinda fussy about such things and I've not been able to get any good images after having tried too.



Could someone please help me with some images of the immersion? I'll be grateful.



Thanks.

I am sure you will get other sites too but there were very few pictures in the other sites. :D

Hey HP,



You called on Jaan the coolest detective? At your service.

Here are some links that might be helpful: although on the same note, I would to add that the Ganesh Ceremony is not the epitome of the Indian culture. The beauty of being an Indian is that everything is immersed in the melting pot that and you can see extremes of any culture vibrant in India.

General info and two pics:

Best site for Ceremony: although its 2003 pics.

Thanks everyone. I knew there would be help available here. :)



LP....I did google....but most of the sites that came up in the search ended up being blocked by our firewall. And didn't really want to beg favours from IT on this one. Begging favours from FHDB denizens is more acceptable anyday.



Thanks again and cheers :)
