The conch is blown at the start of any auspicious ceremony as well as all through the route when a corpse is carried for the final rites to be performed. Is there something so auspicious about death, I wonder. This misty, mystic daze is what I tried to capture through this photography in still life which seems to cast a dark shadow of death on one side and a bright light of life on the other. This is to be framed in our rooms to remind us that life and death is all about celebration if not for you, then for someone else.
