Butterflies in action

I have been recently to the Banerghatta National Park with family. Out of all the stuff that has been designed there, only two things made my day

1. Butterfly Park: This place was heavenly.There was small stream with pretty fish. u could actually hear the trickling water. And there were butterflies all over...of various families...of different colours...of different sizes and designs. The park is dome-shaped and there was light trickling down from the glass roof.

One shot from there:

For Photogs: I was a bit surprised that my 40D was able to get this bokeh with a 70-200. I had never been able to create the bokeh so silky smooth and so, was pleasantly surprised. guess, I am discovering my glass every day :-)

2. The second thing was the Jungle Lodges Hillview restaurant. This is a good restaurant and just about 100 mtrs from the butterfly park. For INR 200.00, one can have sumptuous buffet of both veg and non-veg food there. The taste is good too. We all hogged-what with all the sagari in a rickety grilled van and all the trekking that happened.

Overall, the day was well-spent.
