A domesticated elephant being transported, Thalduwa, Sri Lanka.

A few decades ago, domesticated elephants in Sri Lanka had to walk long distances for work or to take part in Peraharas. Nowadays they are transported on flat-bed trucks. The elephant keeper is in danger of getting a shower of urine anytime during transport.  Photo taken with a Sony Cybershot 8.1MP by Gnanamoli Veerasingam.

Diyaluma falls, Koslande, Sri Lanka - 3/10/2009.

The Diyaluma falls on the Beragala - Wellawaya road on the A4 to Ampara, was said to resemble a bridal veil. Due to the three months lack of rain, the bridal veil has been cut in half. The wind blows away half the waterfall as you can see in this picture. I took this picture on 3/10/2009.
