Whenever I go to Mysore, I love to visit the flower market there. The colours and scents of the flowers gladden my heart. In the image above, the bright orange flowers of the Kanakambara flowers (Crossandra) are in a heap beside the heap of the fragrant white tuberose blossoms.
Nearby is the vegetable market with heaps of chillies and ginger, with their pungent smells.My thanks to James at http://newtowndailyphoto.blogspot.com for hosting this wonderful meme.
What a lovely place! I can just imagine the fragrance! Wonderful captures for the day! Enjoy your weekend!
