Sunset at Vaughan

Two and half years ago sunrise pictures from Vaughan. Now I'm posting dramatic sunset pictures from Vaughan.

Clouds turn golden by setting Sun.

Once Sun sinks below the horizon, clouds lose their shine.

Dodda Bathi Gudda

This is the silhouette of Dodda Bathi Gudda which is situated between Davangere and Harihar cities. On the eastern slope of the hill is a temple dedicated to Sri Revana Siddeshwara, an avatar of Shiva. The shrine is ancient but the temple building has been renovated recently.

shot on Feb 10 2023

At the base of Dodda Bathi Gudda is a village of the same name. The village is surrounded by agricultural land, paddy and sugarcane being the main crops here. Sri Revana Siddeshwara Devastana is the center of Dodda Bathi's social activity. Village people have donated generously and put in great efforts to renovate the temple premises. A community hall with a kitchen & store room have been built, this is for the village people's convenience. Events like weddings and other religious functions are held here. Of course the hall is also utilized during the temple's annual fair.

Dusk at Bokyapur Kere

This sunset was shot during the third quarter, can't remember what year. This sunset is sober compared to the spectacular sunsets shot at Bokyapur during the last quarter i.e. between Oct and Dec.

Sunsets at Bokyapur Kere

These wonderful sunsets were shot at Bokyapur Kere during the last quarter of 2001 or 2002. This waterbody is manmade, its embankment is a pre-independence construction. People say that a village existed here which was abandoned. Just below the embankment is an ancient temple with an inscription slab.

Bokyapur Kere place is situated near Garag village which is known for Madiwaleshwara Mata and Khadi Kendra. Madiwaleshwara was a spiritual Guru of the XVIII Century CE, he was a contemporary of Santa Shishuvinahala Sharief. Garag's Khadi Kendra is one of the few mills where cloth for our nation's flag Tiranga is manufactured.
