I posted a picture of these daffodils for Chinese New Year a month ago. Here’s a vertical version to herald the arrival of spring. Happy spring (or vernal) equinox!
On the topic of spring, James Jordan from Points Of Light has decided to start a “Think Spring” virtual-flower giving campaign to celebrate the arrival of Spring. Check out his photoblog for more details to spread the cheer around!
I went out this morning for some photography at the Botanical Gardens with my father. Part of the trip was about testing out my new 24-105mm lens. Ironically, my most favourite shot of the day came instead from my trusty 70-200mm. I like the colours, the backlighting as well as the framing of the shot. The foraging ant brought some action and life into the picture.
Dragonflies are in abundance by the reservoirs in Singapore. The last time I took one by the reservoir was this favourite of mine at MacRitchie Reservoir. I have been looking for a chance to take something along similar lines. Though not as clean in composition as my previous attempt, I like this one because of the reflections of the dragonfly and twigs. I only wished that the dragonfly was more colourful! In this instance, I had to boost the saturation on the dragonfly considerably to get the final effect.
