 | | | Cactus blossom near Shimla, India | | View at EarthSky Community Photos. | Swami Krishnananda captured the images on this page earlier this month, near Shimla, India. He wrote to EarthSky: “Yesterday, on my daily walk, I saw this cactus blooming from far away, and decided to go near to enjoy its beauty. I had to climb hard climb up a hill to reach it. As the photos will show, it was worth the adventure.” | | |
