The Urge To Wander 
Nice theme, lovely pictures
Thank you Mahesh 🙂
Wonderful photos, Madhu. I wouldn’t have been able to choose just one.
Thanks Naomi. Multiples are such an essential element in art and architecture, so not surprising that I found so many 😀
Hi,
Great photos of multiples, I especially like the arches in the Temple, it is amazing how they built some of these ancient sites, perfect and some stand the test of time.
Thank you Mags. Yes that is from Pergamom which is a particularly atmospheric site.
Nice selections. My favorite is the arches.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
The arches seem very popular! Thank you Francine. 🙂
Loved the multiples… Good wishes for 2013… and happy travelling. May you have multiples of travels that you can share with all of us. Love:)
Thank you Ishita! A splendid 2013 to you too 🙂
Not overboard at all Madhu! Absolutely love your montage ;o) They are all wonderful but my fave picture is of the children in their colorful hats holding hands; precious…
Aren’t they? That is my favourite too, love the expressions on their faces 🙂
Thank you for sharing your thoughts Sahbina.
What a great collection of multiples.
Thank you Debra. Amazing how many instances of multiples there are around us!
Love your header, Madhu. 🙂 I see you put the warriors in for me. Lovely gallery for the theme.
Thank you AD. That header is my favourite too 🙂
So rich and varied Madhu, what are the fruits – I can’t tell the size?
Those are tender coconuts, a yellow variety! Thanks Gilly.
Awesome selections! Thank you for the around the world tour for the Multiple theme!
You are most welcome Amy. Thank you for checking it out 🙂
I love these! I tried to get the Luxor shot of the sphinx from the ceremonial walk but they didn’t show up well at night. Great shots!
Night photography is always hit & miss! Thank you for stoping by 🙂
Wonderful gallery! The children are my favourites!
Mine too! Thanks Ann. Loved your selection as well 🙂
Wonderful multiples Madhu! What a great selection.
Glad you liked it Angeline 🙂
No- you did not go over board! It’s wonderful!! Especially the Arches!
Thank you 🙂 I thought your single photo review was very powerful!
Thank you thats because I am too busy at work to learn the Mosaic format – BUT I WILL : >
I, too, like the header best although all the others come in a close second. Great post, Madhu.
My favourite too Pat! Thank you for your kind comments 🙂
My dear one, I also want to globe trot with you!! As always, LOVE your travelogue!
Madhu, kabhi Toronto aaya karo na!
Truly relished the mulitiples – a stunning compilation. lots of love.
Thank you! And I would love to have you come along Shaheen 🙂 Yes Canada is on the list, but not sure when. Soon hopefully 🙂
Yayyy! My dear Madhu in Canada! You are staying with me!!! I shall drive you to the First Nations Reserves (indigenous culture) and some natives live in Tee-pee’s! More on this later! Aajao ! xxxx
btw, you were so right about the detractors on my new post! Lol.
Excellent… 🙂
Thanks Ledrake 🙂
This is a great representation of the theme. I especially love the first picture of the children walking in pairs. (Or maybe the header wasn’t included in the theme? But it fits.) They’re all beautiful and go together nicely.
Thank you Juliann. The header IS part of the theme, and my favourite of all 🙂 That was shot in the Akasuka temple in Tokyo.
You have multiple multiples! Love them all. 🙂
Thank you Elisa. Went to town with the challenge didn’t I? 😀
they are all outstanding! i love where i live, but i always love seeing images from your world!
And I am so glad you do Lisa 🙂 Thank you so much.
I love the terracotas! They fit well with the theme. 🙂
Subhan Zein
Thank you Subhan 🙂 A pleasure to see you here
Me too! 🙂
Great submission for a great challenge by Ailsa. Love the umbrellas the best. Though I don’t think I can reach it when it rains suddenly. 😀
No that you can’t 🙂 Thank you Rommel.
I never grow tired of looking at your photos. You could have continued on and I would have been enthralled. Lovely Madhu. 🙂
What a lovely thing to say Luann! Thank you so much 🙂
Gorgeous, and so varied. I loved them all – impossible to single out favourites, each is perfect for the theme, and the story it’s telling. 🙂
Thank you Meredith. I was happy I had three from Chennai 🙂
I noticed, and a Bangalore 🙂
Yes, from our Diwali break 🙂
Stunning photos!!!
Thank you Rexlin 🙂
What a clever theme. And then the photos all so interesting!
Thank you Stephen 🙂
So many exquisite examples 🙂 Do you have a favourite among them? Great composition and colours in all of them 🙂 🙂
Yes, the children in the header! That is from the Asakusa temple in Tokyo. Thank you Paula 🙂
*smile
You can never go overboard !!! Wonderful .. fare away and colorful, just what my morning needed. *smile
I’m going to do a post about my photo year too – started now .. for March – and I will be sinking .. with all my photos.
I know, going through one’s entire archives is daunting! All the best Viveka 🙂
Have just put notes on to my bunch – still have 3 months to add, but I’m pleased with choice of photo. Looking forward – to publish them – first time I use them.
By luck did I get a shot of a lonely luggage trolley and moving train at Copenhagen Airport – stunning shot and my yearly favorite.
Sounds great Viveka! Can’t wait to see them 🙂
Very excited .. really – but I’m a bit silly … at times.
Love the stone arch ways.
Yes, Pergamom is one of our favourite archeological sites in Turkey. Thank you Rigmover 🙂
That’s a great collection for that theme. 🙂
Glad you think so David, thank you 🙂
…more, more!!!!!
Great multiples, Madhu!
🙂
You are too kind Marina….thank you 🙂
what AMAZING IMAGES!!! How beautiful!
Thank you Jasmine! Appreciate your stopping by to comment 🙂
Hey My Pleasure!!!
Overboard works…
😀 Thanks!
I loved the budhas and the koi carp; my littlest cat would spend hours watching them
I imagine he would 😀
Lovely and colourful!

Thank you Niranjan.
great images Madhu…I love the Buddhas…I would just stand there all day checking them out
Beautiful aren’t they? There were rows and rows around the whole perimeter of that temple!
I really love your header here Madhu
very beautiful madhu, love the children 🙂
Thanks Dadirri, the children are my favourite too 🙂
I’m always drawn to images with repeated patterns or rows – I wonder what that says about me! Lovely shots which has inspired me to run along and create my own post 🙂
Thanks Suzanne. Just checked out yours, and they brought back fond memories 🙂
It’s like you knew this challenge was on the horizon. Nice collection.
Does seem like that doesn’t it? But multiples are all around us if we just stop to look!
Great choices of images Madhu, Thanks for sharing my friend 🙂
Thank you for stopping by Jake 🙂
Overboard?!the more,the better!
Thanks Nabadip 🙂
It was a “multiples” post… LOL xoxoxo
You have an excellent eye for the unique and beautiful photo ops. Thanks, Madhu.
Haven’t been logging in lately – looks like I missed out on your beautiful posts and pictures. I am sure we’ll see a lot more of your travels in 2013….keep it coming Madhu. Love your multiple multiples.
Oh my , there are so many tea pots in the photo from Kyoto, Japan. I love them. Great photo’s of multiples. Your photo’s are always such a pleasure to view. Thank you for posting.
Great selection! My favourites are the white umbrellas and Pergamon. Lots of great shots, Madhu – you certainly have travelled.
What I love about these photos is the myriad of colors, textures, shapes, sizes but the prize is your header of the children. No, I don’t think you went overboard.
I love the colors and the various sizes and shapes off things. Beautiful. 😉
Wow, Madhu, I love all of these. The terra cotta warriors, the teapots in Japan, those white umbrellas in Bangalore. Beautiful, ALL!
