    I liked the composition of the Tahr looking over the edge. There is some noise in the background. Hope you would be able to capture the flowers in bloom too . Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks for reminding about the Neelakurinji flowers. Mostly the flowers bloom together. However, I had seen one solitary flower bloom in 2010 near a shola forest close to Munnar. Haven't been there since ages.
