Chill-out Zone!
This photo was taken in June 2008 at the Kumbalangi Model Village in Kochi, Kerala, India. We were on a 2 week long vacation in Kerala meeting our family & did not forget to spend some time for ourselves. Kumbalangi is one of the Islands that make the Corporation of Kochi & the status of 'Model Village' has been conferred upon this village for its efforts & focus on tourism in the way of Home Stay suites. The houses there double up to welcome tourists to stay with them in extensions of their own house - homely food, good environment & the chill-out - all in one package.
This photo is the relaxation area that the Home Stay where we visited had built - And that extends into the back waters... A place to chill out with a drink & snacks, make your own catch for the dinner in terms of fish or even crabs... Overall, a wonderful experience.
Taken using a Nikon Coolpix S51 digital camera using the manual mode.

You shouldn't have kept the date/time stamp.. I always feel it spoils the look of the photo.. Ofcourse it helps in keeping the memory n chronology, but not for landscapes..
True & I agree.
I hadn't carried my camera anticipating the monsoon (which was dry!) and this one was borrowed from my BIL. It was a point & shoot model & wasn't sure if it was worth the effort to learn the 'mechanism' to switch that off.
Never thought of it when I clicked, felt the same while reviewing it...
