Happiness is...art preserved over a 1000 years


Every production of an artist should be the expression of an adventure of his soul.
W. Somerset Maugham

Happiness is....being joyful

Happiness is...taking an umbrella to the waterfall

Yes, I did take an umbrella to the waterfall. After all, the best time to visit the Iruppu Falls is during the monsoon. In Coorg, near Nagerhole and bordering Wayanad, set in the Brahmagiri hills, this place is a treat.

The water roars as it falls about 170ft in two levels. This later moves on to become the Lakshman Thertha River. Of course, legend has it that Lakshman (Lakshmana) shot an arrow into the Brahmagiri mountains - lo and behold, Iruppu falls was born.


Look, See, Hear! Definitely, hear! The sprays gently cover the lens of my Cannon.
