Hebbal Lake - Bangalore




Its been a long time since we had gone out and adding to that was the arrival of the new lens; so late on Saturday night we decided on a quick trip to the Hebbal Lake; since Sunday was also reserved for the weekly household chores. So there we were at Hebbal at 07:30am (It is worth getting there an hour earlier; cause we missed out almost all the fishing action!)

Sunday early morning also means that the drive is extremely pleasant and relaxing. The entry to the park is free and so is the parking. Most important - You are free from the usual madding crowd of picnickers; which means that there is silence reigning.
Here are a few of the shots taken with the new Sigma 150-500. Comments/feedback welcome!! 

Enjoy!!!
