What was marked as an eventful day (in ways more than one - my best friend was in town, a bad exam result bringing an unceremonious end to a year of preps) also saw the duo (Thomas n me) venture out in accordance with the pre-planned itinerary.
A quick drop @ Maddy's for the lens, and a bumpy 14 km bus ride, we were there @ Bannerghatta National Park. Green (by Bangalore standards) and definitely hot(Jan it was), 125 bucks each and we were in.
What was to follow was some shameless clicking on burst mode (guided by rules of probability more than anything else)-peacocks, snakes,macaques,elephants, pelicans, and quite a few more. Yes - all caged.
Next, it was said was the time to make our tickets worth - a safari to the tiger park - an enclosure targeted to provide a feel of the forest(had nice marked roads with more tyre-prints than pug marks ) - on a really rickety bus (resembles the old blue colored police vans used in tamil movies).
We had waited 10 min for an empty bus and rushed to find a sweet spot for the camera. The 25 min ride - Unimpressive - except for this 'okay' shot of a tiger and a decent shot of this deer. We saved the Butterfly park walk for Thomas's next Bangalore schedule, bought packets of Lays and rushed into a nice VOLVO, another 30 minutes and we were home, editing the day's catch (on a serious note this time, with Thomas around)
