Interesting day at Hebbal lake after a tiring week

As usual this place is full of surprises. Morning it was not so good climatically for shooting and suddenly the climate chanced and the day became very interesting. We were able to spot few amazing birds. I was not in good shape physically with out sleep for 2 days and had just been back from working in the night however this sites would make you forget all the pain and worries. Here are few of the.

What a stare, it was almost hard know who was watching who, looks like humans watching. 

Also check Anupam's Images. Congrats on the new 500mm :)

After hard week its good getaway. Enjoy the view :)

Lamps at buddhist temple

As I am from Lumbini birth place of lord Buddha, we have many monastery and temples around and you will find these lamps in a large numbers kept together for offerings and prayers. They look absolutely stunning and peaceful.

Trip to Masangudi

We have been to Masangudi during the weekend and the sight was amazing. Once a while its good to have a getaway to the nature. Located around Bandipur National Park and Mudumalai National Park you will see lush green forest full with lots of flora and fauna. You will definitely see a lot of langur and other monkeys

. Also to see list will include Elephants and deers. As you have to pass through the high way NH67 which goes through the jungle if you keep your eyes open you will see a lot of animals and birds in the wild. I was not very active while I was there however I was able to get few good shots :)

Another Macro. The bees were busy and so was I :)

In the  morning at around 6AM we were leaving for a trek and we could see the bud of the lotus and by the time we came back at around 10AM the lotus was fully bloomed. 

Langur sitting on the tree. They are very comic like character.

We shaw this tusker just fooling around in the jungle. Better to be far away from him

This image was take in pitch dark in ISO 6400, the image looks more like oil painting.

Every once a while you would see the mountains covered with clouds as if the clouds are coming from inside and there is cloud factory. Amazing site, one minute we have full cloud and the other moment all gone. Hope you enjoy the images. If you need more then I would recommend you better go there :)
