Caught Special - 71

A nice Marriage Cottage, donated by the distinguished 2nd President of India, whose birthday our country celebrates as Teachers' Day, honorable Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, President of India, on 12.7.1964. 

Sadly, found in an abandoned and ruined state. What could have been a special monumental building to be preserved, treasured and showcased, though I Caught this Special one, but in a pitiable state of destruction already... on its way to disappearance! 

What: Cottage, donated by Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, President of India
Where: Tirumala
When: 22th May 2017
How: Xiaomi Mi-5

Caught Special - 70

A Green Barbet stopped by the silver oak avenue trees close to our balcony. It was 8:55 am, and a cool morning in Bangalore, thanks to the pre-monsoon showers the previous night.

The bird was sitting at a good angle for me, and was calmly looking around curiously, was puffing up and constantly pecking at its feathers, and I could take some 70 odd clicks of it in 5 minutes! I used a long zoom lens and some of it came out decent. There is also one combo panaroma collage I created using cut clippings off some 30 select ones!

What: A Green Barbet
Where: At home
When: 20th May 2017
How: Canon EOS 700D, 55-250mm lens
