This is wonderful find. I too think this as Eulophia herbacea. Cool colours.

Really these were a pleasant surprise, and somewhere around this sighting were Eulophia ochreata too.
Both these made my day.

Very interesting and beautiful pic. I am always confused with this.

Very nice pics. Not very common plant to see.

After visiting so many years at Chobhar it was my luck to find only one plant. 

Yes this is strange plant. In Dehradun also, I found a single individual few years back.
