Photoblog #3 - Hong Hu Gardens, Shenzhen

Went with colleagues (they like taking pictures, have DSLRs, etc etc) to a local park in SZ, and armed with my new Samsung (yes, Samsung...i don't believe i bought a Samsung, but for the price...can't find anything like it in Malaysia. Panasonic and Sony are far too expensive in China.) 12.4Mpix digicam...i went along. And saw water lotus...not exactly my favourite activity, but got to spend time getting to know my colleagues. And managed to get some pictures, poetic or not. I particularly like the shot of the pink lotus, standing tall in the water. Can even see the reflection/shadow of the flower on the water surface. And a pic of me is shown too (photo taken down because i'm photo-lergic. So sue me.heheh). The Samsung digicam has 2 LCD screens, one in front and the normal at the back. Helps with self-portraits, thats for sure.

More updates coming soon, since i'm able to blog from within the Great (Fire)Wall of China. Yay! :)

    Sean: au contraire, the park was quite full of people even at 9am. There were (old) people doing tai chi, some were playing erhu, some were doing line dancing (yes, they were, but to some chinese folk song). well, glad you liked the park. gimme the busy metropolis scene anyday. and no, no bugs or mozzies to spoil the zen mood of the park. pesky kids running about, yes :P
