Haranahalli Someshwara Temple, Arasikere, Hassan

Haranahalli a village located near Arasikere and comes under the same taluk which sounds for the most beautiful temples of Hoysala dynasty. Someshwara temple located near to the Hassan - Arasikere main road which is a walking distance. Someshwara temple catches the visitors eyes on it's unique hoysala architecture and macro architecture too. Temple is having a good area around which provides a best space to lounge and to take the photos. This temple is not maintained properly as Channakeshawa temple which is located on the other side of the main road.

Sree Vijaya Durga kshetra and Hassan outskirts, Karnataka

Visiting Unknown places creates positive wave in our mind, same way known places too, the monument and the history behind the architecture is the soul of the place and nature will create a magical scene that tends human beings to visit these places again and again. There are many places like these and that will create excitement to catch some beautiful shots around and make those things visible to the blog visitor. God not just present inside the four walls made by human beings, in-turn a human being should realize that presence of God in each and every object and wherever we go either it is Temple, church, mosque. Idol worshiping is a sacred place from which we could get positive energy, in Hinduism where DHARMA stands their peace and supreme power emerges. Thanks to Devudu Narasimha Shastry a veteran Kannada writer who presented wonderful Kannada novel's "MAHADARSHANA" "MAHAKSHATHRIYA" and "MAHABRAHMANA" which denotes and enrich the VEDA's presence.

Nuggehalli Lakshmi Narasimha Temple

Winter is started, it’s a freezing experience to ride the bike in early morning. Our intensive speed burst the winter cold wave and triggered our enthusiasm to reach the long distance. Driving to the remote places always provoke our photography to next level. It’s not a targeted place for us but this place lies just 11 km away from the NH 75 (early 47) Nuggehalli Lakshmi Narayana temple located inside the village premises, again it is an fabulous example of Hoysala architecture, complex of macro work never been an easy and is possible only in greatest administration. Pointing the information to each corner of the temple is not my part of job after all this blog meant for traveling photography. Nuggehalli comes in channarayapatna taluk of Hassan district. This place comes between channarayapatna and Arasikere road, however if you are traveling from Bangalore towards Hassan after Hirisave take a right turn and travel 11 KM which will take you to Nuggehalli. We took some shots on the way and closing the day with few bunch of shots.
