Begdewadi Ganpati Temple [Huge Statue]

On the old Bombay-Pune highway, in Begdewadi, a huge statue of Lord Ganpati has been created on a hill-top. The size of the statue can be realized by comparing with the people standing below. This photo was taken by my wife Megha sitting behind me on our motorbike when we were heading towards Bedse Caves. I didn't realize when she took the shot! She's such a master of photography that the photo taken from the speeding motorbike is so very much clear!! Please see her blogs on art, nature and fun. She's out of this world :)

  11. Your wife is indeed awesome! I had to gasp when I scrolled down and saw the size of the people - which means this statue is more impressive than at first glance.

    And the Google Earth view is fantastic as well. I'm glad you included it.
