Hanoi

 Practicing of photography in my trip to Hanoi

This trip, I was using a DSLR, shooting on manual mode

It's fun, and I love photography more and more...

 

Hoan Kiem Lake, landmark of Hanoi. It's near to Old Quarter.

Vietnam, a country with Chinese influence. Chinese temples are everywhere.

Chinese influence buildings are everywhere.

A unique souvenir shop near to Hoan Kiem Lake

 

St. Joseph Cathedral, an Europe influence church building in the city

Taman Tasek Perdana, KL

 

Good to have exercise every weekend

Hill trek, jog in the park are the exercises I do during the weekend

Found another park to do the jogging other than the Kiara Park TTDI

It's Taman Tasek Perdana at KL

  

Big tall tree can be found everywhere in the park

 

Nice scenery found in the park, good for photograhy 

Tree crawling straight up to the sky



 

 

Different types of orchirds found in the park, and it's now orchird blooming season in the park.

 

This is a park in the city, that providing the city people a good place for exercises

 The park also known as Lake Garden, where there's a lake found in the park

PS: Pictures are taken with my iPhone4, perhaps I should bring my GF1 to do the shooting next.

Zoo Negara

I have been to the zoo at my primary six

After so long, this was my second time here in the zoo

One thing I would say, Zoo Negara is not that bad

Just need to keep better maintenance works in the zoo

It's a good place for visit after all.

I was in the zoo brushing up my photography skill

Exploring my GF1 on different settings of manual mode

I'm learning... still learning... keep learning

Ms Giraffe: Are you shooting me?

Storks: Hey dude... what's up?

Elephant boy: Hi, how are you?

Mr. Owl, I love your eyes!

 Mr Deer, you look like a pretty boy!

The lovely lion couple in the zoo...

Love the machoness of the male lion, killing me softly~

Good Tiger brothers... He knew that I was shooting on him!

Cute Orang Utan, one is busy posing, another one is busy playing

Mr Chimpanzee is busy thinking something...



i-City

i-City, a park for the public to visit for the fake plants with all LED lights on at night time,

and it's a commercial center at day time.

It's looking awesome when you are looking at the park from far, like on the Federal Highway

But when you walk in the park, it's not as awesome as you have seen from far.

For me, I visited the park once and for all, may be due to I don't like fake plants

Not to deny that, this is a park for you to practice photo shooting on lighting

I shooted some pictures with my GF1

The Park was crowded with many visitors

I don't fancy taking pictures with big crowd

An upclose shooting on the LED lights on a fake tree in the park 

好天气，好心情

蓝天白云，好天气，好心情。

Singapore Is Beautiful!

Singapore is such a beautiful city!

Cheng Hoon Teng Temple

Amazed with the gabled roofs, with curved ridges and eaves,

decorated with mythological figures, animals, birds

and flowers in coloured glass and porcelain

Looking out from the temple

Superb wood carvings

Lion stone statue at the main entrance of the temple

The tall high pole at the front of the temple

It's all about Cheng Hoon Teng Temple ~ the oldest temple in the country

It was built in 1646, located in Jalan Tokong (Temple Street)

The temple is dedicated to Kwan Yin, the Goddess of Mercy

Ma Choe Poh, the Queen of Heavan and protector of fishermen and sailors;

the red faced Kwan Ti, god of war,

patron of literature and upholder of justice;

and Sui Tai, the golden faced Goddess of Wealth.

The temple was managed well by the locals there

The surrounding, the furnitures, the statues are all in well condition and clean.

Lotus

I got this from wikipedia...

Nelumbo nucifera, known by a number of names including Indian Lotus, Sacred Lotus,

Bean of India, or simply Lotus, is a plant in the Nelumbonaceae family

Sound so scientific with the name of Nelumbo nucifera

For me, is simply called Lotus...

I love this flower, planted as it is in the pond

Holy, clean, beautiful
