Composition is not good & there's lot of light pollution in this one. But at least got the basic hang of it. Now got to improve on the composition and shoot in total darkness on a clear moonless sky with much longer shutter speed & there's much to improve!
Please view in large and kindly let me know your feedback/ suggestions. Thanks :)

Gaganachukki falls aka Bluff at Shivanasamudra, Mandya district
My first ever attempt at long shutterspeed waterfall photography using a 10 stop equivalent do-it-yourself Neutral Density filter.
.
The island town of Shivanasamudra divides the river Cauvery into twin waterfalls. The Cauvery river splits into western and eastern branches. The western branch results in the twin waterfalls of Gaganachukki, whereas the eastern branch results in the Bharachukki falls. The Gaganachukki and Bharachukki falls are at a distance of approx 1 Km from each other. Asia's second hydro-electric power station after Shimshapura, is located at the waterfall and is still functional.

Ever imagined a lost sailor upon the seas, the choppy winds, the sea at its boisterous best, all drear and gloom around? Ever wondered what the light from the lighthouse would mean to the lost sailor? And read John 8:12... "I am the Light of the world. He who follows Me will not be walking in the dark, but will have the Light which is Life."
Tangasseri Point Lighthouse station, Quilon/ Kollam (08 °52.7’ N 76°34.0’ E)
The British East India Co had factories at Tellicherry & Anjengo and other interests along the coast. To assist their fleet they raised a column at this site during the mid 19th century and placed on it an oil lamp. The present Tangasseri Point Lighthouse tower was established in 1902. This tower (42m above MSL) has a brick masonry murette (Red and White diagonal stripes) with wooden lining inside. The present light source is a 230V 400 W metal halide lamp (which flashes White thrice every 15 seconds having a range of 20 nautical miles) was put in to operation on 15th May 1994.
