The Sun shines on the Nilgiris


               Happy Rathasaptami/ Surya saptami, the birthday of the Sun God!

            We went to Ooty in January last year. We enjoyed the train ride on the Nilgiri Mountain Railway(NMR). It was a four day trip and everyday I ended up with some pics on the Sun and His light! One pic is a repeat. Hope you don't mind!

This one is from the toy train en route to Ooty




One more from the train

Some trees still told us that winter wasn't over..yet!

Botanical Gardens, Ooty

The Sun pierces His way through the Pine Forest, Ooty- incidentally, it's the Makar Sankranti day of 2012, the day the Sun moved into the Northern Hemisphere!

The Pine forest is, no wonder, bright!

Sunset somewhere between Mudumalai and Fern Hill

Dusk

It's getting dark!

It's a bright and sunny morning in Fern Hill!

Beautiful flowers!( Please identify)

Lovely flowers, aren't they? Fern Hill (please identify)

One more..no one can click just one, right?

The flowers bloom (no doubt on the chlorophyll content in the plants!!

Next morn, but same activity!

You've already seen this, right! @Ooty lake

More reflections on water... @Ooty lake

Great to view such lovely pics. Especially I liked the pics of single tree, sunlight piercing thro a tree.

Expecting more such beautiful pics at regular intervals.

I have a huge repository of snaps, Hari, although whether you'll really like them is a different thing altogether. Thanks for all ur encouragement, Hari!
