Dakshinkali Dragonflies poster

So last last saturday (21st September, 2013) the photowalk group headed up to Dakshinkali to take photos.

Dakshinkali is a small village/town/hill which houses the (Hindu) Dakshinkali temple and a large Buddhist monastery. The area still has a lot of fields and tons of insects for macro practice. On the way there’s a also another smaller temple with a large pond with tons of fish!

    Hello Mr. Samdup,
    Congrats on your blog and glad you included the large pond as well. I call it “Pondie”. It used to be our regular hangout during college days with tons of memories. Could you please include some more pictures of the pond and all those wonderful fish next time! Cheers!
