Still Life
This photograph was taken under candlelight with a high ISO. My intention was to capture the qualities of a still life painting of the 1700's, which depict the abundance of nature, vegetables, fruits, etc., against a neutral background. The focus is on the texture, color, play of light and simplicity of the overall composition.

Archway of Trees
This photo was taken in the south of Sri Lanka, on the road from Kataragama. The canopy of tree branches cut off the hot mid-day sun and gave a refreshing feeling to travelers.
Floating Flowers
The photo depicts yellow flowers floating in a bowl of water. Flowers are floated on bowls of water at the entrance of hotels, commercial buildings and in some Sri Lankan homes. It is meant to be a welcoming sign for visitors.
In this photo, the yellow flowers are called “Rukkaththana” in Sinhala. It belongs to the Alstonia family. The bark of the tree is used in medicine as an astringent, in treatment of malarial fever, chronic dysentery, diarrhoea and in snake bite; The milky juice is applied to ulcers.
The original photograph was edited to give a painted effect.
