My Camera Log

Krishnagiri is well known for a short bike rides/drives over a weekends. Even my all previous rides/drives were limited to McDonalds on the highway, while going through one of the travel blog got information about this KRP dam (Krishnagiri Reservoir Project) Just at a distance of 100 Kms, we will find this beautiful place. While coming back from Yercaurd , thought of visiting this place.  Krishnagiri dam is very near to highway (around 10Kms from highway), but yet fairly unexplored. Better time to visit is in the evening so that we can avoid the heat and also to witness beautiful sun set. As per the board hanged near dam, its allowed for visitors from 8.00 AM to 5.00 PM. But they were allowing even after 5.00 PM. They charge Rs. 5/- as entrance fee. Walked around the bridge for some time clicking pics, because of the cloudy day we didn’t get a chance to see sun set.  After spending couple of hours we headed back to Namma ...

Yercaud is one of the beautiful hill station in Tamilnadu. Its around 230 Kms from Bengaluru. Since the road condition is super fine one can reach with in 4 hours from Benagaluru. There is lot of options to stay now a days compared to my last time visit way back in 2011.   We booked Kingers Homestay in Yercaud for our stay in advance. This time trip was planned and executed by Pradeep and Priyanka our new organizers :P One more specialty of this trip was new member joined our group for trip.   Yercaud is good place for relaxation, some time journey will be beautiful than the destination, Yercaud will fall under this category, we will enjoy the drive through the 20 hairpin curves. Even it will give option to do photo shoot as well. On the way we spent some good time clicking the pics. There are few places to visit around Yercaud. Once we checked into the home stay we visited Pagoda Point. Didn’t find this place much interesting, or not so good for photo...

Finally it was time to leave the Havelock island and luckily we got the morning ferry to Port Blair, the tides were very high and journey back to Port Blair was not as smooth as the previous ones. The entire day it was just raining and raining, we could not go out because of that. Evening we just went out near the hotel. Sagarika emporium is one of the best option for shopping in Port Blair. We opted to visit this place in the evening since it was at walkable distance from hotel. For final day before heading to air port we got a chance to visit Wandoor beach, which is around 25 Kms from Port Blair. It was a quite peaceful beach and not much crowded. Because of the high tides they didn’t allowed us to get into water, it’s a nice place for photo shoot as well. We had couple of hours’ time to spend around the beach. Spent some time in photo shoot around, even rain took couple hours’ break and allowed us to click some pics. Fin...

The rain finally showed some courtesy on us stopped around 3.00 PM, After coming back from the scuba dive we were sitting in our room because of rain. Once we observed that rain is getting reduced, we called up our trip adviser and checked with him if he can manage for some side seeing. He told he can arrange for Radhanagar beach. Radhanagar beach is one of the cleanest beach in Asia, and I must mention its best place to get into water and play. A long white sand beach provides an opportunity for photo session as well. There is a changing room available near the beach, but felt that it could have maintained even better. They will charge Rs.5/- to use this changing room. They claim that they provide shower but personally could not stay more than couple of minutes inside the changing room. Other than that, the beach side is maintained very well and very good place for spending time in beach. Once you are back to parking place, there is enough...

Andaman trip main intention was Scuba dive, which was pending from long time. First thing we planned after reaching Havelock island was booking the slots for scuba dive. Weather was not promising from the day we reached Andaman, there was a high alert across the island because of cyclone. We booked the first slot in the morning for scuba dive. Our trip coordinator only helped us to book the slot, they will charge Rs.3500/- per head, which includes all the scuba dive gears and they will only capture some photos and videos of the dive. We reached the destination at 8.00 Am and we were eagerly waiting to get into water, first we need to fill the form with our personal details about our basic health conditions and later they will explain some basic things about scuba dive. Finally it was the time to wear the scuba dive gears  😊 It was around 1 hour dive and they will take us to 6 meters depth for this basic dive package. It would be sea walk and then dive, wh...
