It is the spring season and is celebrated as Vasant Ritu in India.

There are no native trees that shed leaves and gain new ones out here.

But blossoming trees are everywhere.

Here's one such outside my residential apartment in Pune.

This is a Gulmohur tree with its gleaming and shining blossom.

The yellow bus beneath it nicely compliments the radiant orange colors.

Together under the blue sky, the trio forms a picture-perfect street scene this spring season.

Did you see a blossoming Gulmohur tree in your neighborhood?

The Resilient Sentinel: A Lone Tree's Triumph on the Mountain Top

Perched atop a rugged mountain called Ganesh Hill in Himayat Bagh, Aurangabad, India is a solitary tree that stands tall, defying the fury of the elements. This stalwart sentinel has weathered countless storms, its roots digging deep into the rocky terrain like a steadfast anchor. The tree's gnarled branches stretch towards the sky, a testament to its unyielding spirit.

I had snapped this picture on one of my evening treks a while ago.

It may be Vasant rutu in India, but there's no respite from the summer heat. And still despite the harsh conditions, the tree has adapted. It's twisted limbs a reflection of the relentless winds and dust storms it has endured.

Yet, in the midst of this seemingly unforgiving landscape, the tree finds beauty, its leaves rustling softly in the gentle breeze like a gentle whisper.

This lone tree is a symbol of resilience, a beacon of hope in a world that often seems unforgiving. It reminds me (and I hope my readers too) that even in the most inhospitable environments, there is always the potential for growth, for survival, and for triumph.

As a dark cover of clouds gather for an unseasonal rain over the mountain platue, the tree's silhouette stands stark against the gray sky, a poignant reminder of the power of determination and the enduring beauty of nature's wonders.

The lone tree on the mountain top is a sentinel of hope, a guardian of the wilderness, and a testament to the indomitable will to thrive.

Thank you for the photo, dear @tidkeprashant_2019

But the challenge is about "Blossoming Gulmohur Tree" or any tree.

Please edit your post to include a flowering/blossoming tree 😊

Good topic, @Tushar_Suradkar

You know, luckily, I have one Gulmohar tree right in front of my house, can not take picture right now as I am facing the sunlight. I will add it tomorrow or a bit later.

Here is one Gulmohar tree captured in Belgaum, Karnataka.

Cheers!
