A 'Walawwa' - a stately home - was bought by a hotel chain and renovated to act as a reception hall for weddings. Here are two pictures I took there.

Flowers in our garden


Two of the brightly coloured flowers in our home garden in January 2012, at Avissawella, Sri Lanka. In the early 1960s I got a beautiful picture of a red rose. A female student seated next to me expressed a wish to own it. I gave it to her. The next day another female student wanted a similar copy. Now I do these photos myself.
