One needs telescopic camera to take photo of inflorescence which is high up. Telescopic camera needs a permission. May be in future trips to Lal Bagh I will try.

I do not think so.   Ordinary camera / CELL PHONE IS SUFFICIENT TO TAKE THE FOLIAGE / HABIT .  i had been to Lalbagh several times  and taken photos !
