in memory of Rajesh Gowda

 Rajesh was a colleague and a friend. He had accompanied me on few trips around Bangalore. He was a super active and jovial person. He had supported his family immensely. Sadly his health issue got serious which eventually took his life. A tragic ending for a person so energetic.

This picture were shot at Savandurga summit. We had stayed at overnight at the temple and started climbing the hill at dawn. 

This too is at Savandurga the previous afternoon. We had explored the fort ruins on the southern side of the monolith. This is a sprawling rock formation with natural ponds with fresh water.

This particular picture was shot at the base of Thenginkalbetta, a granite hill with two peaks. The other two are Girish, another colleague and the taller person was our guide Manjunath from the village. 

These trips were special because of Rajesh's antics, he kept us smiling and laughing all the time.

Om Shanti.
