One of our vehicles on the Kumana trip got partly submerged in mud almost four feet deep. The right side of the vehicle was submerged while the left side was on the hard soil and the vehicle was in danger of tipping over. The team managed to tie a rope to it and using a tree as a pulley ...

Photographed during an Enduro Lanka off-roading trip to Kumana, this shot shows the importance of team work. The driver and vehicle could not get anywhere without the hard work and support of the crew. I will dedicate this weeks photographs to try and document the hard work each individual in the team put in to get our two pickups across one hundred meters of thick ...

The kumbuk tree in my back yard has become home for a colony of bats and every evening they fly off to engage in their nocturnal activities. Some have even ended up stranded inside the house.

Took my first trip down to Galle on the Southern Expressway last weekend. This was the best I could do from the backseat of a moving vehicle. It took us roughly an hour to get to Galle, which is pretty much the same time it takes me to get to Colombo form home in Panadura. I’m sure the drastic ...

Last January while on a trip to Horton Planes we decided to hike up to Kirigalpoththa. Half way up we ran out of water and Chethiya, pictured here decided to try out some survival tips he had seen on the television program “Man vs Wild”. Afterwards we all had a go at sipping water droplets that had collected on the moss growing on the trees and ...
I started sorting and editing most of my Horton Planes landscapes a couple of months ago but due to other commitments it’s been delayed. I’ll be uploading the Horton Planes landscapes to my site as soon as I’m done. This photograph of a mountain range just after sunrise taken from the way up to Horton Planes via Ohiya is just something that caught my ...

Yes it’s been some time since my last post. Starting up you’re own thing sounds awesome on paper but actually doing it involves some sacrifice. In my case I haven’t been able to do any travelling for some time now and I’m starting to miss the great outdoors. In an effort to remedy this, my photo buddy Sankha Wanniatchi suggested we visit the ...
I was looking for a another camping photograph in my archive and I came across this one of a herd of elephants I took while on safari at Udawalwe National Park. We were driving along and had to stop to maneuver around a fallen tree, and all a sudden came across this herd of elephants. They were quite surprised to run into ...

This ones from the trip I did to Kumana with Enduro Lanka. Sankha Wanniatchi prepares our first nights dinner. When camping you’re not sure what sort of weather you’ll have to encounter so it’s always best to be able to prepare you’re food as quickly and as easily as possible. Our favorite food of choice, Instant Noodles with either meat balls ...
Ok still sticking with the camping theme from yesterday and this photograph is of the campfire we kept going all through out the night during our trip to Block Two in Yala. A campfire is essential when you’re camping in the wild. It serves as a deterrent to any animals who might wander into the campsite. Everyone took shifts staying up during the ...
My plan for this evening was to finish watching the last season of Big Bang Theory, but when I was half way through I started browsing though a note on Facebook by one of my friends. She’s spending the weekend in Yala and had put up a post about her experience there. At first I was quite jealous that she was ...
The forest canopy overlooking a mountain range in Knuckles. Last August I was feeling pretty low. I just needed to get away form it all. Basically I needed a holiday. Ok the people around me might say “You go on trips all the time, you just got back from one, why do you need to go on another one?” For one ...
I’m not much of a video person. I prefer taking still images to video. I believe that still images capture an exact moment where as a video captures a situation. Video simply has too much information for my liking. But when the guys at Enduro Lanka asked me to tag along as their Videographer on their expedition in the Kumana jungle ...
