Here are the Lilium oxypetalum images that I had clicked during my sojurns over the last 12 years of shooting flora 

of the Valley of Flowers, Uttarakhand and some of the adjoining Himalayan ranges. There are two images of the plant and flower and one image 

of the seed pod (this is not up to the mark as there is a shake but is just a record).

I hope these images can contribute to the species pages which is a fantastic exercise in scientific documentation and cataloging of Indian flora.

Over the years in my yearly trips (missed two years due to inaccessibility caused by the deluge) I have collected pictorial data of the regions Flora 

and have a humongous stock of images (approx totaling 670 gb). I have had two major exhibitions of selected images in Mumbai, at 

the P. L. Deshpande Art Gallery and the Jehangir Art Gallery in 2011 and 2014 respectively.

I plan to exhibit this show at Pune, Nashik, Thane, Goa, Belgaum and Delhi in the near future as I will have to look for sponsors since it involves a huge expense.

I want to post as many images on the group so it may be helpful to all members but find it difficult to go thru the process. I will surely load some whenever possible.

Thnx for the wonderful group.

regards and a hello to all members.
