Kerala, India

Kerala’s iconic backwaters form a tranquil network of lagoons, lakes, and canals stretching along the Malabar Coast. The region is famous for its lush coconut groves, calm waterways, and traditional houseboats, offering an immersive view of village life. The collage captures key motifs — mirrored reflections, tropical vegetation, wooden canoes, and longboats with local passengers. These references are ideal for practicing reflections in murky water, foliage layering, and compositional rhythm. Use the images to study how man-made elements integrate with lush natural scenery, and to explore muted color palettes softened by humidity.
