Duo!

These are the flowers of "Habenaria grandifloriformis" (आषाढ हबे-अमरी) of the family Orchidaceae. I found them on the slops of Rajgad.

what a place...

This is the most amazing place I ever seen in real. This place is on top of Kamalgad fort near Wai, Satara.

Doors!

I like the tunnel like appearance of these doors. I shot this on the fort of Grenoble, France.

Good morning!

Early morning view of a typical countryside! Its monsoon and the clouds are spanning the horizon vigorously. A milky white blanket of fog has covered the whole village. On the backdrop lies the twin forts: Chandan-Vandan!

Hanging Gardan!

When it becomes moist during the time of Monsoon, the branches old trees in the valleys of Rajgad fort become loaded with hanging moss! The moss flourish during this time and grow so beautifully in the branches that they form a garden - the hanging one!

Snake-wall!

This long wall is actually a fortified wall of Rajgad. In a nice monsoon time one gets this fantastic view on the "Suvela machi". This is the same place seen in our earlier post :Rajgad in clouds.

Its lunch time!!

This Honey Bee was found on a wild flower on KenjaLgad

Rajgad in clouds

This is "Suwela machi" of Rajgad (King of forts)!
The giant rock at the center of the photo looks like as an elephant and that's why called by the same name - Hatti!
