A very rare capture- Himalayan snow sublimation !
Snow subliming from the Nilkanth peak as seen from the badrinath Valley. Snow sublimation is a loss of water from the snowpack to the atmosphere due to the direct phase transition of snow to water vapour. A heavenly sight indeed.
@apparrnnaa Eng: Shameplant
Mimosa pudica is a creeping annual or perennial flowering plant of the pea/legume family Fabaceae. It is often grown for its curiosity value: the compound leaves fold inward and droop when touched or shaken, defending themselves from harm, re-open few min later.
@apparrnnaa हिन्दी: छुइमुइ या लज्जावती
छुइमुइ या लज्जावती एक प्रकार का पौधा है, जिसकी पत्तियां, मानव स्पर्श पाने पर या तेज फूंक मारने पर सिकुड कर बंद हो जातीं हैं, व कुछ देर बाद अपने आप ही खुल जातीं हैं।
