Contemplating

Power to the People

Yeah I know. Its been a while. Sorry for the absence.
Enjoy.

Chillies and Baskets

Just some random shots

The Galle Services Club

I really don't know what service this club offers... Do they really need a Tower for what they service?

Supporting Sri Lanka

The free way. Can afford a ticket? Go to the Fort Wall which over looks the stadium. Stand next to the flag someone might take your picture

Galle Fort Mosque

God's Watching
And yet i sin.

Speed

The trip to Hikka. We took the train. It only cost 85 rupees and as you can see. We got seats

Matara Clock Tower

Matara Fort. Different to Galle's

Street Art

This guy draws some nice pictures of women using mostly charcoal and pastel colours. He sells them as cards or posters at quite reasonable prices. Im going to get myself a poster. Artists like him need it.
You can find him on the Bambalapitiya Junction outside MC

Pool

Wyomi gave me a harder time than Josh

We need to talk

Offshore Life

An article on how the party went can be found here. If your on my facebook you can see more of my pictures

Shack Light

Yeah i know its been a while.

Dewatagaha Mosque

The first picture would look so much nicer without the bloody lamp post. But alas if the police had seen me with a camera they would have labeled me as a terrorist and locked me up. Sigh

Captured Wild

This is apparently a common bird but i hardly see it. Every Sunday this female Koel and her mate come to my garden to eat the snails. I always go after them with my camera but i can never get a good shot. Last Sunday i caught her just outside the bay window. She was being bothered by a crow who appeared to be wooing her.

Another frequent visitor to our household. This rat snake comes for our toads. The toads are the size of my feet (size11) and are quite docile creatures. This 8 foot snake came by and caught one of them. My mother feeling sorry for the toad let the dog loose which chased the snake away. Amazingly the toad survived after being...in that position.

St Sebastians

It doesnt seem aligned but this is the only way i could take the picture tree free!

Spring n Summer Fashion Show by Odel

There were more models but these are my best pics. The people and the signs in the background are sort of annoying. Sigh.

Paralyzed

I never ever thought for a day "How would i get by if i couldn't walk?"

St Josephs

St Josephs. Its such a nice school. The old buildings, the nice big gardens and the trees. Its quite a little paradise. Its hard to believe people actually schooled here. I've been used to going to a school that looks like a hospital where grass has been removed to be replaced by concrete.
This school is so different to us.

Grease Pole

A traditional part of the Sinhalese and Tamil New year is the Grease Pole. The Pole is actually a coconut tree around 25-30 feet high. The whole pole is greased from top to bottom with a flag that sits happily on the top like a star on a Christmas tree. The game is for a team of 2 people to climb up that pole with no equipment on and grab that flag. They are allowed to wipe the grease with their hands. The normal strategy is for one person to do the wiping while the team mate supports him from under. Its quite a long game and its took about 4 hours to finish this one.

BloodShed

In medieval times, while the men, husbands, sons, fathers go out to war. The people of Home would look to the sky for a sign or even hope.

Belief then states that when the sky goes red during war bloodshed has fallen. Whether it was for good or for worse i dont know.

This picture shows that there has been bloodshed and in this country, There always is.

Belief - Kaluthara Bodhiya

A new set of pictures based on religion and religious places. More to come.

The shame of this picture was that i took it from a moving us and as a result part of the bus can be seen on the top right corner :( but still i like it.
