Ooty
====

This place is also a place of visit in the summer season for its chill climate. Udagamandalam-Ooty in short is called as the “Queen of Hills”. It is located at the tri junction of Tamilnadu, kerala and Karnataka. It is at 7500 feet above the sea level and finds its location in the Nilgris (also called as Blue Mountain).

Nilgris is a beautiful mountain range which is a part of Western Ghats. Totally there are three places to visit namely Kothagiri, Coonoor and Ooty. Among these three Ooty is given the primal importance because of its scenic Beauty and excellent climate conditions. Nilgris is oldest than the Great Himalayas. Like Icing on a cake ooty adds Pride to this mountain Range.

Hi Narayanan
What a place...
good capture and POV, it's shows the how it is.
The stairs on the mountain are for harvest?
well done.
Taba

I visited Ooty long time back with a bunch of noisy school children under my charge, Ganesan. Apparently, I saw more of the kids than the beauties of OOty :-)!
Obviously, I am keen to visit it again, in my own company this time!
This is an interesting viewpoint on the town. The step farming on the triangular hillside has a geometrical visual appeal.
What lens did you use here?
Because I have yet to decide on a suitable lens for landscapes.
Well done and TFS.

Beautiful View...U lucky to get away from Delhi heat!!
Nice shot..good composition&POV.

Preciosa fotografía que nos permite ver el "modus vivendi" de tierras lejanas. Impresionante el trabajo en las terrazas en el campo, debe de ser una agricultura poco mecanizada y dura ... Preciosa. Saludos Narayanan.

Hi Narayanan,
it is interesting landscape. very nice photograph and composition.
best wishes
Mehmet
