The Master sankalp at Belandur.

An Australian photographer captured the stunning views of the solar eclipse on Tuesday, 29th April. After snapping some spectacular photo shots of the eclipsed sun, he said  ‘Time seemed to stand still during the brief moments of visibility while I waited in awe of this natural phenomenon. I hope the penguins of Antarctica enjoyed their view of the Ring of Fire.'

Fascinating. Penguins are highly social, colonial birds. In contrast, humans in today’s apartment colonies are confined to their narrow comfort zones, interact less and less with neighbors. In little over a decade the face of the Metro has changed into a city of mounting suicides.

Belandur penguins will now be the torch bearers to lead a movement to reverse the trend. It should eventually help restore the glory of the city once known for its hospitable human interactions.

Go ahead with the Master sankalp!
