This was shot some time back in Sri Lanka. I am off to Ranthambhore to attend the annual meeting of the NGO Tiger Watch I work for and will return Monday evening. I will not be connecting to the Net from there so will catch up with you all on Tuesday. Cheers till then!

The morning dew worked great to shoot the beautiful flowers in the garden where we were staying.

Kelani River, Sri Lanka

The Academy Award-winning "The Bridge on the River Kwai" was filmed on the Kelani River near Kitulgala, although nothing remains now except the concrete foundations for the bridge. Kitulgala is also a base for white-water rafting, which starts a few kilometres upstream. More info on the shooting of the scene can be read at
