This ideally should've been the first blog entry because this is the first time I ever took the DSLR for a trip,but better late than never.We headed out on little known Kanakpura highway from Bangalore in December last year.As far as a I remember on a Saturday morning because my photography class got canceled.
Please do not mind the crappy work on this cos at this time I was still trying to comprehend what the difference between a DSLR and point and shoot is.(Still not understood though) and that most of these pictures have been taken from a moving car.
A pretty highway through the rural parts near Bangalore.Bumpy in some places but pretty none the less.Once you're out of the vicinity of Bangalore and traveled for about a hundred kms,you hit empty roads with hills and fields all around.A wonderful sight to see when you've been working your ass off in a concrete jungle.
Had something made of rice though I don't really remember what it was called ,but was damn hungry so it seemed to be pretty nice.
We took a left off the main highway and drove for about 6 kms uphill to reach chunchi falls with a couple of other parties of enthusiastic idiots hoping to find water in a jungle in a season after India has had about 20 odd percent lesser rainfall than last year.Well we were one of them but to save some grace we were more concerned about the pictures than any waterfall.Well as I said trying to save some grace there.I'm not even sure I can use the phrase in the manner that I did.I suck at grammar.
And I would like to mention that I love the state.Want to do a feature on Dakshin Karnataka which is one of the most beautiful parts of the country.Especially Manipal.Hope to do it soon.Planning for a trip to Udaipur hope to get some good snaps there as well.
