A mountain torrent, Balangoda - Bogawanthalawa road, Sri Lanka.

I took this picture of a mountain torrent by the road, in the upper reaches of the Balangoda Group at an elevation of about 4500 feet above sea level.

I took this photo at an elevation of more than 4000 feet above sea level, on the road to Bogawanthalawa. It was a misty and cold day. I used  the 10 zoom and a uv filter on my digital camera.

the 'Gharandhi ella' on the Balangoda - Bogawanthalawa road.

Picture taken on 16/10/2009. The water fall named after its appearance to a 'rat-snake', is seen flowing down a high misty mountain, on the Balangoda - Bogawanthalawa road. It is a hilly road which takes one over 5000feet above sea level to descend to the beautiful Bogawanthalawa valley. The trip takes about one and a half hours.
