The Moods Outside My Window

One of the things I've been most grateful for in the past year is the flat we call home, especially because of views like these:

Fluffy whites floated by one fine summer's day.

Cotton-candy puffs amidst darker rain clouds.

Rain clouds creeping in during the monsoons.



Pink blossoms at the end of the day.

Sunset reflected on my balcony door.

The Hibiscus Series!

Somewhere along the line, rather unintentionally, I became a hibiscus clicker! Its not like they're my favourite flowers, but I feel compelled to click whenever I see one, and this is what I've got so far:



The one that started it all - taken in Coorg.

Bangalore in Bloom!

We headed out to Lalbagh Botanical Gardens last Sunday morning, and on the drive over we noticed that our favourite tree - the Tabebuia - had burst into bloom in this absolutely stunning, vivid pink. Got a chance to click only once we reached Lalbagh.

Also stopped to click these pretty blossoms.
