Dehiattakandiya









Mahawanawela, Dehiattakandiya - where I spent the first four years of my career life, nearly 250km away from family members and the friends. From the November 2004 upto August 2008...

The rising sun over the paddy fields and cultivated paddy fields.... These lands supply rice to the nation, harvested with the sweat and the tears of the innocent people, they do feed the nation!!!
Tha Mahaweli river, through the Mahaweli scheme supply water for these lands.

The Oldest Building

Probably the first building of the District Hospital, Rakwana. Thought the written history cant be found, this building must have been here for more than hundred years. Today, serves as an Clinic Building....

Misty Mountains




Misty mountains near the Haputale city. These were in the morning of the Haputale, Welimada road.

Kantale Tank - As the Sun Sets....




Several times, we happened to travel to Trinco, all the way from Rakwana, for the transfer of my wife - thanks to the idiotic policy makers and the government!!!! These were taken on such trips.  As we were coming back in the evening, Kantale tank was like this, waving to the setting sun!!!

Haputale




One of the loveliest cities. As the day breaks, the misty mountains and solitary trees by the side of the road.....
