St Andrew's Cathedral - Singapore

 

The sky was all white with haze and clouds, yet I had in mind to take some pictures today. So I headed to St Andrew's Cathedral for some indoor captures, just to find out that the apse was under renovation. Walking around, I still managed a few shots, handheld HDRs.

The leopards of Yala (2)

My favourite shots of the leopards.  

Water Buffalo - Yala National Park

After the elephants, wild water buffaloes are the second largest mammals found in the park.  

Mugger crocodile - Yala National Park

Mugger crocodiles can be found in large numbers, basking under the sun at all the waterholes within the park.

A jackal at dusk - Yala National Park

Jackals hunt alone as opposed to dogs who hunt in pack. Highly opportunistic and intelligent, jackals eat whatever is available with least effort. This includes all kind of vertebrates and invertebrates plus  fruits and some vegetables. They readily scavenge as well.

Grey langur

Grey langurs are quite common in Sri Lanka. They are often wrongfully called "black face monkey" by the locals.
