Photo Adventures with Curiosity and Learning
My bimonthly trip to Hyderabad - problem solving and enjoying local street food and unanticipated adventures. First - getting to Hyderabad from Singapore thanks to Silk Air MI 478
and the Silk Air MI 478 altitude plot
A day with the team at Augmentech SoftSol -with a quick plan for tomorrow's trip to Rajahmundry. Here is the track of the SpiceJet flight from Hyderabad to Rajahmundry
and the SpiceJet altitude plot
From my hotel balcony - nice view and a clean city
Searching for dinner for a little one
Viswa and I went off on an informal tour - first top - a temple near the river front - guys bridge watching
The bridge being watched
Meanwhile - a bit of washing of clothes - in a typically Indian style - beating the dirt out by slapping it on a sloped stone
More bathing
The Godavari Reiver Bridge
I suppose these are called the Cotton Bridges - after Sir Arthur Cotton, the engineer that built these in about 1850 - an amazing engineering task
Two guys on a boat
A nearby temple

Vishnu in the Cotton Museum Garden
A goddess - that I don't know the name of
Cotton Museum Cannons
Locks - part of the Cotton Barrage
The Sir Arthur Cotton Barrage
Funny guy - talking by mobile phone (21st century) and driving an oxcart (1st century) - what a difference 2000 years makes
Cargo of sand
Driver, cart and cargo
Family fishing - net casting while the wife is managing another net (right)
More fishing action
Nice team
The son is enjoying his time as my photo subject
Wife doing something with the net
Clearly she is the fish net manager while her husband is the driver
Done fishing - and off to home
Following traffic - a somewhat crowded pickup
The Sir Arthur Cotton Barrage

At this point - Viswa and I walked to the edge of the river - and hmmm a lynx just caught a butterfly
