Last week @TravellerG took us to the famous Lalbag Botanical Garden.
I came across this amazing Bougenvillea with multiple-colored flowers on the same tree.
This amazed me.
Here’s the view of the same plant from the other side.
Also in the same garden, I bumped into a very tall tree.
Look at the height of people for comparison.
This amazed me since I had never seen a tree so tall.
Fortunately, I was not wearing a hat; otherwise, it would have fallen looking at the top 
Finally, while returning from Bangalore, now called Bengaluru, I saw these unusually large leaves from the train. These amazed me a lot since I had never seen such large leaves.
I guess these were easily 4 to 5 feet in length.

The sound of flowing water and the scenery were truly amazing to me, something I had never experienced before or since.

Great Challenge @TusharSuradkar .
Here’s my entry :
This is inside Napier museum, and situated just in front of Trivandrum Zoo. First I thought, it might be a tree that blooms, but it is just one creeper plant that spread the yellow throughout.

Another entry @TusharSuradkar :
Saw this beautiful old tree in Fort Kochi covered with ferns, might have took the ferns 5 or more years to take over. Got to capture this during @TravellerG’s Accessible Kochi Meetup.

This looks fabulous as well @Rahul001
Yes, I remember seeing this kind of tree too - mostly dead,
but surrounded by creepers giving the false feeling of a green tree.

- What amazed me in nature:
I am sharing three photos taken at Genting Highlands, each capturing nature’s beauty in a way I had never experienced before:
• The first photo showcases a breathtaking view of Kuala Lumpur’s skyline from the highlands, where the cityscape blends seamlessly with nature in a dreamy haze.
• The second photo highlights the Awana Skyway, a cable car ride floating above lush green mountains, offering an unforgettable panoramic experience.
• The third photo captures the serenity of Chin Swee Temple, nestled within the misty highlands, surrounded by stunning landscapes and a peaceful ambiance.
Nature’s ability to create such contrasting yet harmonious sights—towering skyscrapers in the distance, floating cable cars above dense forests, and a tranquil spiritual retreat in the hills—left me truly amazed.

These photos were taken with my iPhone 14 Pro Max, and they are unedited—because nature’s beauty needs no enhancement!
Thanks for your nice initiative, @TusharSuradkar vai.
Very nice challenge @TusharSuradkar Ji.

Amazing shot @PatraSomnath I consider this as unusual that is found in India being a native of some other country.
