This is Linganamaki Backwaters. The river you see here is Sharavathi. Linganamakki Dam was constructed to generate hydro-electricity and it was the brain child of a great Engineer Sir M. Vishweshwariah. The same river forms the famous Jog-Falls (The dam is constructed before the falls). During my college days I had a gang and used to bunk classes to come here and swim in these waters. This place is very near to my native and its one of my favorite spots around my town. Its very calm and not many people come here.

In order to discover who you are, first learn who everybody else is; you're what's left.

Oh Prashanth...this is so peaceful. I would love the quiet there. Its too bad the sky was so white, would be lovely with a few clouds or colours. Very nice photo my friend. Verena

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

Some color in the sky would make this look even better than it does. It's a very pretty place.

Wonderful scene dear.. a bit over exposed it seems - and with the D5000s in built retouch menu select "Active delighting" to reduce the brightness of backgrounds.. This works well :).

Expecting more uploads soon :)
