Folkdance – Day 346

This was a cultural show we attended in Srilanka that covered their various folk dances. This one is the very famous mask dance. Extremely vibrant and colorful, this dance requires some very skilled moves and balance..

The Hungry Giant – Day 341

Mouth Wide Open

Ok this isn’t my usual skywatch picture..  Err.. it is if this picture is turned counter clockwise which is of a normal scenery of a a rocky platfor. However a 90 degree rotation gives it a sinister turn and much more striking to my mind..

Moments of Happiness – Day 319

Sight for sore eyes

New fresh strawberries and dairy cream is always exactly what the doctors order for that right feeling… Now lets imagine this slowly being chewed along with the cream and slowly melting in the mouth and leaving a lingering taste… Sigh!!

Day 276 – Vertigo

Long way to the bottom

Taken in the ancient city of Sigiriya, Sri Lanka this was shot from above from a height of over 1000 feet. I put my foot in there to show the sheer drop below. I was literally overshooting the safety railing to take this shot. Good thing I did not get a bout of Vertigo !! (shudder)
