thanks all!
& that thing is called moon!
its really hard to keep hands steady when it is so much zoomed!

off the topic - these pictures ware taken on the way to naygao.
Two of my stupid friends tried to go for some thrill of racing on their 100cc's. Even with the almost full moon it was hard to see any pot holes. While racing, the guy in front sees something coming towards him on the road. After getting really close he realizes that it is a sign saying "Work in progress. Go slow." & their is a drop of at least 20 ft straight ahead. he jams the brakes! (to remind 100cc. no disks!) something broke of his rear brake & thankfully it jammed the wheal forcing the bike to skid for a couple feet & stop just in time.
Thanks to those idiots, we had to spend an hour on the road, in ghats, without any mechanic with just a friend with some knowledge of bike repairs & no proper tools, I had an opportunity to get warm by the fire & get these shots.
on a serious note, it is important to [1]Check your bike while going on long ride. & even more important is to [2] Check your attitude towards the ride.
Knowing your limits helps a lot.
