One of my first time experiences during my last trip was chewing tobacco. I have always been open to new experiences and when the cup of tobacco was presented in front of me, it was an opportunity too good to be passed off.
Tobacco is really bitter and dries up your throat within seconds of chewing. They say its good for the throat, in small quantities ofcourse. Anyway the next time the opportunity presents its self, I will stand on the sidelines and wave :P
Thanks for all the sweet comments for the photos from my recent trip. This time while sorting out the pictures I realized that there were some photos with a story of their own to say and some that I totally loved taking. So I separated out these photos and will be posting them in the next couple of days… This is the first of the set.
We spent an afternoon at Shringeri during our four day trip to Chikkamagaluru. Interestingly that day also was the annual Rath Yatra of the matha. The festival is very colorful and celebrated in a grand scale. I managed to capture a few pictures of the crowd and the festivities…
Every Diwali for the past 4 years I have dedicated a little time to watch and photograph fireworks from my terrace. This year I could only manage to do it for one evening at home and a few minutes at a friend’s place. Hope you enjoy the few good photos I managed :)
A couple of weeks back I had been on a 4 day trip to Chikkamagaluru , Mullayanagiri, Kemmangundi, Shringeri and Belwadi. The trip was one of the most scenic I have been a part of… the beauty and greenery was the kind I had till then only seen on pictures or film.
I took over 750 photos over the 4 day period(which is a huge number for me). I will be posting some of my favorites in batches here.
We start off with ‘Mullayanagiri’ the highest peak in Karnataka. It is located in the Baba Budan Giri Range of the Western Ghats. October seemed like a perfect time to go there, the mist and the cool winds gives you a irreplaceable feeling of oneness with nature.
