Wither Away

It's getting obvious that one of my favorite subjects are flowers / plants.  Here's one withering away, but you'd still see some elegance it used to carry when it was still in its full bloom.

Just to add something more personal...I'm very busy nowadays sorting out our BKK trip this June.  This is my first time to arrange one and a long one I should add. 

I'm so excited already! We'll be doing some Island hopping trip at Phuket, the only thing bothering me is my DSLR... should I or shouldn't I bring it during those trips?  How much is an underwater case? I hope it's not that expensive so I can buy one :)

Fountain of Youth

Can you hear the rush of water?

These pictures was taken last year at Safa Park here in Dubai.

Since I am not into the project 52, I thought of posting pictures that I have forgotten to upload last year.

Simplicity is Beauty

I've always been fascinated with flowers that's why I love taking photos of them.  But where I am it’s just difficult as there is not much variety.  Not like in the Philippines – my mom’s garden alone would showcase different types of flowers.

I use to buy some in the flower shops just so that I can be able to photograph them, imagine that! Haha!

But this particular one, you’d see them at the pathways.  At first glance you won’t see how beautiful it is because it’s plain and small – forgettable.  But I took a few snaps and saw its true beauty.

Simple is really Beautiful!

Ferris Wheel

When I was younger, I wasn’t afraid of heights.  But there was this one incident, maybe I was 5 or 6 yrs old back then, we had to take the stairs because there was something wrong with the lift.  I think we were at the 7th floor, then I suddenly freaked and cried because I was so terrified.  It was just like somebody turned the switch and “boom” all of a sudden I can't look down and had this terrible feeling of falling or missing a step. 

I did tried to “cure” my fear.  Went and join a mountaineering club when I was in my Junior year in college til my early 20’s, even tried rappelling (and I should add that it was so amazing just don’t know if I can do that ever again!) But without practice I am back to my “normal” acrophobic-self. 

So ferris wheel and rides like this are good to look at, but please don’t ask me to actually ride one J

I took this photo last year at Al Safa Park, forgot to post it online…as usual...but I did post the other one here.

Goodbye Project 52

Another year of unfinished photo project...
But please stay tune...I will still post pictures every once in a while : )
