awaking Valparai... Photo

Photographer’s Note

note from old post:

************
Western ghats are the row of mountains at the southwest of India. Its south end separates the states Kerala and Tmail Nadu. This south portion is almost continuous and have thick green beautiful forest.
The very famous Ootty, Kodiakanal, Thekkadi, Silent Valley, Parambikulam national park, Munnar, Chinnar, Kuttalam, Thirunelli, Valpara etc etc all are in these range.

There are only a few notches through which the roads connecting two southmost states. Palghat pass is the widest one and NH47 and railway goes through this. Almost all the other ways are through thicky hill forest and tourists can fulfill their minds with great pleasure. I like very much the travel through this mountaineous roads.

One beautiful and amazing route is `Chalakkudi' - `Pollachi'. Chalakkudi is in Kerala and Pollachi in Tamil Nadu. You can see big group of wild elephants while passing through here. The famous `Athirappalli' waterfall, `Vazhachal', Sholayar dam, Malakkappara Tea estates, Valpara, Aliyar Dam etc are sonses of this path.

A few weeks ago I had a travel through this road and I camped at `Valpara' for a day. I consider the Valpara as Munnar of TamilNadu. I know that Valpara is as beatiful as Munnar of Kerala. But the tourists are not coming much because of the lack of exposure and inconvenience in transportation.

Great light, really magic ! Much better than the regular sunset or sunrise photos... (Just a pity that the lower part of the photo is so dark on my screen, and I regret not to see a little more of the sky) - great atmosphere, with a sort of fog between the horizon in fire and the blue of the sky above !
Bravo,
Cath.

A very beautiful one, with fantastic golden colors while the blue of the sky is still there in the upper part. I like very much the trees dotted here and there giving a feeling of loneliness. Great work.

Hello Pramod,
My eyes were caught by the light, creating this wonderful atmosphere!
The silhouetted trees are good elements, and the moist in the air helps to create a fine feeling of depth...
Wonderful colours, fine details!

Pramod, c'est très agréable cette composition avec les arbres en contre-jour sur ce ciel doré. J'aime également les belles courbes des montagnes.
