Independence Day Flower-show at Lalbagh

Happy Independence day in advance to all my dear friends! Do visit the flower show at Lalbagh and the B'lore weather is so perfect for it now..!

Best time to visit such events  is to go a few days earlier than the actual day. I visited on 12th on a weekday :) :) Fresh flowers and minimal crowd! :)


This year's theme, Mysore Palace.




As no much crowd, cops had a relaxed time. Many were even clicking pics on their mobiles, helping visitors with group pics. I had a nice chat with the organizing head who said, this year they have decided to wave off charges for cameras as they felt a lot of people enjoy photographing flowers these days and they simply want to encourage them. Noble thought indeed :)  




Close up of elephants. I liked the tail of the baby elephant! Really cute :)




Designer pink pine apple! Design challenge for Apple guys..!! ;)




These stalls were fun! And this time, a lot of eco stuff at display and for sale. I bought a jar of yummy gulkand!




Flory Sprinkles!




Bright red roses were too bright on a overcast day! I had to constantly reduce contrast levels on my cam :)




Dreamy daisy




Mysterious abstract of a red daisy




This one looked so milky! The lovely B'lore weather made all the flowers look even more beautiful!




Poppy: Simple and elegant! 




I found this baby bud to be v cute :) 




The slight purply tinge looks v attractive.




Nested flower!




White flames!




Gerbera




The slight drizzle significantly added to my Lalbagh experience.




Somethings I always like in Lalbagh :)








Banyan like tree with all its branches concentrated at the trunk. Will remember this spot for the next portrait shoots!




There are a lot of these old huge trees that are extremely beautiful. Maybe one day a photo-event just to click pics of these rare huge trees.! :)
