Himavad Gopalaswamy Betta
Himavad Gopalaswamy sits in a temple atop an eponymous hill adjoining the hallowed Bandipura National Park. The forest begins where the temple walls end and it is not uncommon to sight an elephant or herds of herbivores on the nearby hills and valleys.
Gopalaswamy on account of his popularity and for the reason that he sits in such a pristine environment, draws people in multitudes...crowds gather here by bus-loads on weekends and decorate the grasslands around the temple with colourful plastics :(
The next time you see plastic there, Pick it up!!!!
A trail to an adjoining hill ... People are supposed to take permission and then go up this track. But suppositions are suppositions and you can still see "devotees" roaming freely there with their plastics:(

The Neelekanti Waterfall... This perennial waterfall makes for a glorious backdrop all through your Trek up the "Ridge Walk" trekking trail.... Grasslands surround the Waterfall and the interspersed Shola Forests add charm to the whole green drama...
Experimenting with shutter speed.
