Rose Ringed Parakeets

It has been busy days here and I haven’t been able to updated much on the blog. There is much to write though. I guess the pace at which I am writing is becoming far slower than the pace at which I travel. I need to catch up! In the meanwhile, I am getting out more often and giving more work to my camera. Here are some pictures of Rose Ringed Parakeets that I shot recently.

The Palace of Tipu Sultan, Bangalore

I was at Tipu Sultan’s Palace in Bangalore two days ago. It was a cloudy evening and there wasn’t much light when we got there, but nevertheless managed to take a few pictures. The palace has a series lovely wooden pillars. The palace is entered through an airy hall open at one side, which leads to a few plain rooms. The first floor, reached through stairs at both sides of the hall have a gallery from where, it appears, the Sultan addressed his subjects. When I climbed up the gallery, I was surprised to see that the palace is symmetrical and has another large hall to the other side.
