Flowers

Besides the majestic Deodars (Cedrus deodarus) and the stately gnarled oak (Quercus leucotricophora) that coat the verdant hill of Mussoorie - we also see another grand landscape unfold - but at a much smaller scale - that of flowers.


You look down - and almost everywhere you can frame beauty.


With summer come so many blooms. Around homes and out in the wild.


And where there are blooms - we have stately visitors who come in search of sweet nectar - and who take pollen from blossom to blossom.

Flowers and herbs are the towering giants of these small-scale landscapes. Each level almost vying with each other to be more beautiful.

How blind we can be to so much that gladdens the heart around us.
