Kite Festival @ Mangalore

January 24th, 2005 at 02:30pm

Had been to the kite festival @ Mangalore - Beach side. ………. Wow ! what a crowd. Never thought soo many people would turn up. We hit the beach a bit late, and the first indication of the crowd came, when we could not find space to park our cars!. Then we had to park our cars around 1.5 kms away from the beach. then started our long march, as if, it were the great migration of African jungle… We finally reached the beach at around 5.30 PM, which was crowded to the max wit lots of kites flying around !.

Managed to click some snaps…..with my rebel. Many of the shots that i took were shaky, bcoz at full zoom on 75/300 mm lens, its very difficult to be stable !!.. Next. … i have to save money for IS (image stabilizer)lens :)

Comments, most welcome!

Wow ! Looks Cool
