Wesak decorations made out of young coconut leaves, Kudagama, Sri Lanka.

I saw these wesak lights made of young coconut leaves to hold lighted oil lamps, on the bank of the Sithawaka Oya, Sri Lanka. I took this picture at sunset when the lamps were not lit.

A paddy field is being ploughed using a diesel powered, two wheeled, hand tractor. Egrets are around, to pick up any earhworms found in the upturned soil. This photo was taken by me at Atale, Sri Lanka..

Rock and pool, past Kithulgala, Sri Lanka.

Among the many streams one passes on the road to Ginigathena, I came across this rock and pool. It is a favourite spot for the village youngsters who come to laze on the rock and dip in the pool at midday. It is a lazy life with no cares or worries.
