A VISIT TO NANDI HILLS, PART- 1.

        A couple of months ago, our team had planned a trip to Nandi Hills. All members were present which made the tour more effective and enjoing.

        Our first stop was for having some food and "Nandi Upachar" served the purpose. While others were having food, I came out and clicked some pictures of the building. Later they too joined me.
   

The deep Blue sky was contrasting with the  bright Yellow of the tree in the foreground, which resulted  as  a picture in my camera.

The same concept with different composition to make the name of the Hotel visible.

          Moving on, We reached the Nandi Village, which houses the Temple dedicated to Bhoganandeeshwara, The Temple complex is vast in size and it includes the  temple, Gaarden in front of it and a Holy Pond.  It was the starting point for our Photography. 

Lush green, Blue skies, Yellow flowers supporting the heritage structures- what else do you want ? we stayed and shot to our satisfaction.

The Hill seen in the background is Nandidurga..

These Yellow flowers when shot against the Blue sky, make the picture  worthy.

The chariot was under construction and preparation went on for the annual Car festival.

This twin tree formed a V shape, which made an interesting viewpoint in the foreground. Seen in the bg is NandiHills.

Entrance of the Bhoganandeeshwara Temple.

The inner area of the Temple.

Tried to make a perspective view of the court hall  of the temple.

The temple was being decorated for  the Annual Car festival.

There are some carvings on the walls of the temple, though not in the levels of Hampi.

There is a Well in one of the corner of the temple. We made use of the stone arch built over it, to frame the shrine.

        While I was busy in capturing every possible nook and corner of the temple, my teammates went on shooting the Holy Pond. Later I too joined them.....
