Many varieties of flowers seen at the plateau. Blooming together smiling together. |
Pink carpets amidst the carvia plants |
A time comes when all these carvia plants will be in bloom. Guess once in 7 or 9 years. |
Gorgeous looking trees, a small pond amidst the impatiens flowers makes it a spectacular sight. |

Great photographs. Thank you.
The Urmodi Dam reservoir with the Sahyadri slopes make the landscape appear like someone trasplanted the scene from Newzealand.
The carpet of flowers are wonderful.
It is sad to see a person keeping watch over the carpets. In a culture that claims to be environmentally sensitive, do we need to have such people? It would be nice if we took care of our environment ourselves. We should leave the culture of dominance to other people.
Srikanth,
