KAUP


In the nothern part of the western Coast in Karnataka, lies a quaint sleepy village town called Kaup. The clay tiled houses ( most of them seem abandoned) with windows covered by dried cononut leaves that stand along the shore belong to the Fishermen Folk, versatile in Tulu and Kannada. Relatively humid and hot, the weather makes it difficult to adapt, however, the sound and smell of the sea is much of a relief from the chaos in larger cities. Kaup is home to a fully functional Lighthouse (built in 1901), which makes it a touristic attaraction for weekenders. In this photoseries i make an attempt to showcase the life of Kaup.
