Sunlight backlit branches of trees

This is another picture that came out well during my weekend trip to Nandi hills. The clear weather and the dramatic sky at the hills made the sunset a pleasant experience.

The black, silhouetted branches back lit by the evening sun, on its way to horizon, created a perfect photo opportunity. The bold background colour of the almost clear sky work well to enhance the silhouette.


Light from heaven

I had been to Nandi Hills last weekend. This is my second visit to the picturesque location. The charm of these hills makes it a must visit for day trippers from Bangalore.

These hills are famous as summer retreats of Tipu Sultan. This is my friend Siva, at the remains of Tipu's fort, enjoying the last rays of sun for the day.


Vembanad lake

A beautiful scene of the serene backwater stretch. This picturesque view is from the banks of Vembanad lake in Aroor town which is about 20 kms far from Kochi.
