This baobab flower looks so beautiful in black and white.
No wonder the French poet, artist and film director Jean Cocteau had once said, "Black and white is colour and colour is black and white."
This flower is on one of my many tree friends (वृक्ष मित्र)- the one at the gate of the Defence Officers' Club aka DSOMI Mhow formerly the Club of Central India.
Scientific name: Adansonia digitata
Common names: खोरासानी इमली, मांडव इमली, गोरख चिंच, monkey-bread tree, African calabash.
