Sometime thing happened by chance. In a Hot summer afternoon, due to sudden motorcycle break down, My brother asked me to wait, till he get it repaired from a mechanic. At the place of breakdown, there were no mechanic shop , he need to pull the bike to nearby mechanic shop. Hot and Humid afternoon take a toll on me and I started to lookout for a shelter. With nothing concrete around, I went under a Tree standing in middle of a open ground. I was sweating out a lot but under the tree, I felt relax and I sat under the tree waiting for my brother.

I was feeling lonely sitting alone in the area, why would I expect anyone , in that hot afternoon. Suddenly , my eyes stuck on the big tree under which I was taking shelter. It was very big Banyan tree, with strong Root and Stem and branches.

---

The big branches spread all over the places. The leafes and stem atoping the sun rays and cooling me with the breeze. It was big enough to accomodate 1000 of people undeneath the big branches.

---

While looking at the big tree, I have noticed there is small compound at the back side of it and a black board on the outer wall. Seems like, it happen to be a open school for village kids, who use to study under the shadow of the big Banyan Tree. Though that time there was no one around, but the black board make me think of a open school.

---

I overlooked the other side of the wall to notice a grave within the small compound. Seems the area happens to be of follower of Islam. Though I have not taken the grave picture,being concerned about religious sentiments. But I have read somewhere about Madarasa a small makeshift school run near the holy grave. Thinking about it , I stopped myself from taking further picture of the place.

Although I loved that place as it provided me a quick shelter from sudden mishapenning with the bike Feeling glad and relief to have such humongous tree which can benefits many with their big trunks and branches.

---

While observing the tree, I came across a particular type of sticky thing on the stem. I am not sure what it is, but it scares me , a filthy material coming out from the stem.

---

Anyhow I waited there for an hour, sweating, and taking pictures of the big tree and the school that might be running in morning under the tree. A tree always been know as a source and helpful for the makind, be it wood, for the furniture or the shadow to take relief from hot sun and rain god.

I took shelter to protect myself from the sun, which comes out to be adventurous photography and discovering many unlnown facts of the area. This is my entry for #treetuesday initiative by @old-guy-photos.
