Jasmine plant in a pot

A a small cutting planted in a pot took 15 days to sprout leaves, then it grew quickly, lot of leaves.. six months later, it gave one flower/ A year later, we pruned it and week later half a dozen buds :)

This i believe is the third flower of this plant.

The following morning i.e. 24 hours later, the petals had turned pink. This hadn't happened with earlier flowers of this plant. Strange.

sketch on a wall

This picture was shot Sept-2015.

I found this bunch of lovely sketches on a wall close to where I live. Whoever the artist was, had a great sense of proportion. The man seems to be a teacher, the little girl's smile is beautiful, a puppy with drooping ears, a pencil, a balloon and a butterfly. This sketch remained on the wall two years, every time i passed by, it made me smile :)

Ant trail

While we were at office.. ants attacked the wheat flour packet, carried away flour and left a trial on the kitchen platform. I can't stop appreciating ants for their pervasiveness and discipline.
