Hottest day in Kathmandu (206C)

I was checking the weather condition of Kathmandu through the web page of meteorological forecasting division of Nepal, I got this page. I was very surprised to see the temperature of Kathmandu as 206°C. I am sure that the figure is wrong and it might be missing . (dot) in between 20 and 6. What happens if you consider the data provided by the division for your research if you don't notice the error in bulk or while taking average for long term data analysis. I hope some scientists will not claim that the Kathmandu got highest temperature due to 'climate change' for the mistake.

Traditional wooden pots from Nepal

In earlier days, still today in few places of Nepal, uses wooden pots to store foods. Depending upon the size and shape of these wooden pots, they are used to store milk, curd, ghee and other food items. Now a days, wooden pots are replaced by metal, ceramic or plastic items. I don't know which one is hygienic and environmental friendly but plastics are definitely not good.

Hail stones hits Kathmandu

While scientists are fightings with 'global warming', almost at the end of winter season, Kathmandu is hit by large amount of hail stones. It was windy night and all of a sudden, I hear 'pop' sounds above my roof. I came out of my room and saw white balls hitting hard to roof, ground and my flower pots. Oh! in a very short period of time, the amount of hail stone was so high that I have not seen before. It covered the streets, ground and everything within five minutes time. Enjoy the pictures of the same event occured just yesterday.

A visit to Manakamana Temple

Few weeks back, I visited Manakamana temple. The devi is belived to fulfill the will of everyone. I don't know whether everyones will is fulfilled but I enjoyed the natural beauty on the way to temple and scenes from the cable car. Hope you will also enjoy the trip with these few pictures.

Sun through sunglass

I was thinking to look solar eclipse looking solar eclipse needs special glass. In search of the glass, I got an idea of using camera, look the eclipse in camera screen. That was also a good idea to take picture of the moment. I took a stand and pointed to sun but it was so bright, my idea could not work. Then I must have a filter. I didn't have lens filter so I put my sunglass infront of my camera and looked the eclipse in my camera lens. I also took picture through the glass.

I like this picture as it has captured a flying bird.
