Spring/Summer in Pune (2012-13)

May 2012-13

:: Galleries – Nature: Seasons – Spring

Spring is when the natural world comes alive on our planet. And, it is a treat to find and discover the multiple hues of yellows, greens, pinks or oranges as trees around the city come alive! It’s now become a favorite for me… Here’s another set of more (recent) pictures from a Spring-Summer break!

Fiery Gulmohar flowers in bloom at the start of summer

Nature:Seasons - Spring/Summer 2012/13

In this album:
 
Brightly adorned gulmohars line many roads in Pune The gulmohar, with its orange-red flowers thrives in dry and hot conitions Driving by a city road on a hot afternoon, that's lit up by the oranges of the Gulmohar trees A totally flower-bedecked Gulmohar offers respits from the scorching sun. (Photo modified with a photoshop effect!)
Known as the 'flame of the forest', the gulmohar adds fire to an otherwise monotonous cityscape A quiet street - lush in the greenery; the street is empty more due to the scorching temperatures than anything else! A gulmohar in full bloom can't be missed! The red-orange flowers of the Gulmohar light up a dry, hot lane in the city
'A Tree of Life' ! No wonder the Gulmohar is called the 'Flame of the Forest'! This amazing tree (don't know what it's called) comes abloom entirely in yellow flowers. Words cannot describe it. Bright yellow flowers of this tree are a treat to watch. The pink bouganvillae are the icing!
The gulmohar flowers come in shades of orange and red - each five-petalled, with one petal more whitish (and tasty too!) A close-up of the dense cluster of flowers on a Gulmohar, the 'flame of the forest' A glow of yellow flowers shines in the summer sun in a quiet vicinity (in Pune) Spring Blossom: Beautiful bunches of bright yellow flowers
Spring Blossom: Leaves, flowers or grapes? Pretty yellow blossoms!

Spring/Summer in Pune (2008-10)

:: Galleries – Nature: Seasons – Spring

Spring is that time of our planetary cycle, when Nature comes alive after the cold period of wintery weather. And, you just have to look around – or outside, depending on where you are – to see the bounty of nature greet you. Here are pictures from shots taken at various times just hoping to capture the beauty as best as possible.

Autumn colors are well-known to many, but Spring is equally, if not more, spectacular! Keep watching this space, as capturing Spring colors, is just turning into a hobby for me!
