¿ Oldenlandia umbellata ?  
Dear friends,
Most probably, these too could be Oldenlandia umbellata ... refer my earlier post. Photo quality is poor; these plants were at some other place in the disturbed area. The area was been left untended for quite long time, since the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami. The resulting scrub forest seems like a haphazard mix of herbs, climbers and twiners among planted trees.

your previous pictures in the earlier thread are also taken with the same camera

it has better details

i was thinking as soon as i saw this case first that i dont see details,
may be because its a point and shoot camera
but its not
just a different day
a different situation

==
back to this case
seems to be

Ushadi

Thank you very much Saroj ji and Usha di.

Usha di, I deleted some writing in the post that I wanted to send across. It was about the new camera and my struggle to cope up with its controls for improving quality beyond what is delivered by its "auto" OR "program" logic. I have always lived with auto / program and straight-out-of-camera JPEG pictures. Except for manual adjusting of metering and focus area. This new camera washes out details in bright OR white area owing to its long range 24 - 480. I will learn to do some other adjustments - may be EV or any other parameter to gain the details. So, until then, have to go with lesser quality pics :)

Regards.
Dinesh

Thanks, Dinesh ji. On zooming quality has gone down drastically.
Yes, appears close to images at Oldenlandia umbellata

Thanks Garg ji for validation.
This trip was my first with the new (bridge) camera Lumix FZ2500. I am still trying to learn its settings and behaviour.
My mistake was that I used using intelligent zoom for tele-macro - it is absolutely useless feature. It ruins quality.
Regards.
Dinesh
