Adieu Bangalore..

As I write this Post my Heart is filled with mixed emotions,I don’t know whether to be Happy as after 6 Years long Years finally I am heading to my Home State–Assam or to be sad as after 6 Years I am officially leaving a Place which I can proudly call my Second Home–Bangalore..

Seriously at this moment I am getting very Emotional,I am bidding farewell to a Place where I have spent my precious 6-7 years of my Life,A Place that is so close to my Heart..I still remember the day when I first landed on Bangalore– 14th September 2007 with many Hopes and Dreams,I know I have and are in the Process of making my Dreams come true but in that process I became a Part of this lovely City and Now today I stand to say Goodbye to this City..

But with me I taking a Lot of Memories,Memories that I will cherish for the Life to come. .:)
If ever in Life I am given the choice to Choose any place other than my Home State–It will definitely be Bangalore,once and for all

To keep it Simple and Short–I love everything about Bangalore and will continue to do so and will miss everything I did here,Though I am leaving Bangalore–Still a Part of me will stay behind here in Bangalore and I will be taking a bit of Bangalore with me.. 😀
To Bangalore– “You are Just Awesome” and Cheering for Bangalore “Namma Bengaluru” 😀 😀
And Sometime Down the Line “We Will meet Again” 😀 😀

Till then “ADIEU Bangalore”

Before Ending the Post Check out the two images of the Area in Bangalore I live.. 😀 😀

And A Thought Before I end up Last Post from Bangalore.. 🙂

Thoughts Recollected

So I end my Post with a Smile for BANGALORE,for all the things you have given to me,I will always be obliged to you.. 🙂
Once Again “ADIEU BANGALORE”–I am going away from you but you are and will be there always in my Heart. .:D

 

Never Forget to Thank–They Make your Travel filled with Fun

I generally don’t click pictures of People and for this I hear a lot from my Friends as well as Family Members,Whenever someone ask me to click their Pictures I silently hand over the Camera to someone else.. 😉

But there are certain situations when I like to Click People and the situations I am talking about is while Traveling–Many Times when we Travel,we find many People who help us to make our Travel fun-filled,confused of whom I am referring to–Well they might ranging from Our Travel Guide,to Our Cab Driver,to Eateries Holder to many more.. 😀

So,Here are some Captures of those People Who made my Travel Fun..A Great ‘Thank You‘ to them…And I literally said Thank You to each of them for Posing and for the Fun… 😀

• The Ice-Cream Guy–Met him when I was in Lalbagh,Actually my friend had Ice-Creams from him..This Guys I feel is of my age,maybe smaller,So When I ask him to Pose,a shy smile came to his Lips and I knew he was happy.. 😀

The Ice-Cream Guy

• I met them When I was in Mysore,These Guys take you for a I guess 5-6 minutes Horse-Ride,Unfortunately I was not able to Ride a Horse as of Time Constraint but ask them to Pose with their Horses.. 😀

The Horse Ride Man

• Now I met this Guy When I was at the Bull Temple in Bangalore,He was playing the trumpet and it so added to the Religious Atmosphere. 😀

The Trumpet Man

• Well You cannot miss to Thank them whatsoever,These are the Guys that take you for the Coracle Ride in Hogenakkal Water Falls on Cauvery River.. 😀

The Coracle Man

• And Special Thank You to This Guy Below–He was our Coracle Driver for 2 hours we spend on Cauvery River,I asked him many a times for a Pose but he was busy with his Job,So I had to take his snaps from behind.. 😉

Horizon–What this word bring to your Mind?

If we go by the Books it is The line that separates the Earth from the Sky,But has anyone ever seen that line….It is always like as much as close we get to them they seem to be as much as far from us,but then that is the way it is defined.. 😀

So,instead of defining we just can look at them and adore.. 😀

Famous Places to see in Mysore

Mysore know as the Sandalwood City is located at a distance of around 145 km from Bangalore and is a great place to spend your weekend at-least that’s what  I did.A City full of Historical Places,Colorful Festival like Dussehra and is also famous for Mysore Silk.

The third largest city of Karnataka and its main industry is tourism.
Here are the some of the Famous Places in Mysore that I captured and they are worth a visit.. 🙂

*Please click on the image for better view

• Mysore Palace:-The Official Residence of the Royals of The Mysore Wodeyars.Mysore palace is now one of the most famous tourist attractions in India after Taj Mahal.The architecture of the place is a delight to watch and it look best on Sunday and Public Holidays when the Palace is illuminated with around 96,000 lights.Photography is not allowed inside the Palace(But some people still don’t get that and click pictures using Mobile Phones,as Cameras are not allowed inside and I guess that is not right).

• St. Philomena’s Church:-A Gothic style church built in 1956 and is one of the largest church in India and is around 175 ft tall.The illuminated church in the evening is a wonderful site not to be missed.It is no longer just a religious place but has become a major tourist attraction in Mysore. Even here also Photography is not allowed inside the Church but again some people just can’t go by the rules….

• Brindavan Garden:-My Personal Favorite,lies adjoining the Krishnarajasagara dam which is built across the river Kaveri. Located at a distance of around 25kms from Mysore city,The garden is enriched with innumerable fountains decorated with colored lighting. The illuminated running waters and fountains with changing colors of lights is an event that the tourists can look forward to in the evenings.

Watch the Sky through my Virtual Eyes

Last Weekend I had loads of fun in and around Bangalore,the reason being my Parents are here in Bangalore,I went to Mysore,roamed around Bangalore and clicked lots of Pictures…I guess now I am in love with Photography.. 🙂

But all I end up was clicking Pictures of the Sky,Monuments and other things and my Mom said “You bought this Camera not to take pictures of People and only these useless thing” to which I tried to explain her but I guess that was all in vain,nevertheless here I present the Snaps of the Sky clicked by at different times from afternoon to dusk till night..Hope everyone likes them and don’t forget to mention the one you liked most.. 🙂

And Today i.e.19th August is the World Photography Day,so this post is dedicated to World of Photographs… :-),but I was not aware of this event until I came to know this from a fellow Blogger–
