Kangchendzönga - Sunrise & Sunset Timelapses

Spectacular locations often make for some spectacular photographic opportunities. These timelapses are from the Singalila Ridge - noted for its views of Kanchenjunga and Mount Everest - and feature the Kanchenjunga sleeping Buddha peaks. The Singalila National Park encompasses the ridge.

Bansilalpet Stepwell

The Bansilalpet Stepwell (Naganah Kunta) is a six-level baoli or stepwell in close proximity to the centuries old Hussain Sagar Lake. Much of its history has disappeared with the passage of time but its architectural features stylistically date it to over 300 years old. The Pharaoh & Co. mentions the well as Naganah Kunta in their 1954 map of Secunderabad as part of a garden of tamarind and palmyra trees during the British period. Later, in the 1930’s, a Britisher - T.H. Keyes - developed the area and the project was funded by local businessman Seth Bansilal, after whom the stepwell came to be known.

This is the first chapter in finding the Stepwells of the Deccan series in collaboration with the Rainwater Project.
