RGB Monday

'I have been sitting watching that ever since I came back, 
the continuous variations of light and shadow .' -

The weather turned absolutely wonderful right away, from quite sunny to stormy, it was a kind of welcome weather during this season of hot summer although the temperature is mild this year so far. Usually it’s the June turns out hot for us in Chennai and being close to sea, the breeze rose from there is a kind of relief fought over the hot land breeze later by noon.  

We’re almost 70 days into the lockdown that was partially relaxed already but still a month long lockdown is imposed across India from today till June 30. Chennai had become the 2nd largest city and hub in India with high Covid 19 cases next to Mumbai in Maharashtra and we lead by over 700-800 positive cases per day and it only seem to rise. North Chennai being a crowded residential place has become a vital part of transmitting virus in the city and it seems the people in age of 20-30 where influenced a lot to infective. The lockdown and Covid 19 awareness is well taken down into people and they mostly resist coming out after the noon, perhaps they used to the former time restriction and content through it. All evening seems Sunday here and life goes peaceful but can’t deny the fact that there’s a kind of fear of uncertain. Hope you guys take care and stay safe.

We are still advised to stay in. Phase 2 for us will happen on the 5th if they go forward. I hope so. It tough but we have to do our part. Have a good week and stay safe, Jeevan.

Stay safe and keep a safe distance, friend. Later you can travel back to the mountain to enjoy the natural scenery.
Greetings from me in Indonesia.

I went shopping last night...rather than early this morn. And I don't think I seen one single shopper with a mask on. Other than me. I don't know what that means...most of the workers did not have them on either. Of course the town that I was in is not huge...and has only had one positive case of Covid...maybe because it is surrounded by lots of farmland. It is not the desitination of a lot of people.
