| Entrance to the big tent .. |
Garden festival mascots posing with visitors
 |
| Its dark inside - my first impression... not easy to get pin-sharped image of such a macro scale exhibitions. |
 |
 |
| Taking this changing color garden is a challenge I will be satisfied to have a unshaken picture. Walking around i thought the scene belong to a church graveyard - angels and arch-shaped structure. |
 |
| You need to wait for the fog generation to give an atmosphere of this stream in a jungle setting ( I think). |
 |
| Angel....... spooky atmosphere |
 |
| I think the three-some make a difference to this pic above... |
 |
| Foreground shooting at the background - the girl in black balanced the static clumps of flora |
 |
| Hey this is the childhood kampong pop pop ....first time i saw use for the floral decoration below. |
 |
| Fire... |
 |
| The concept is simple - spirals structure to decorate a table... |
 |
| Randomly placed here - i looked at this Dining In Mangrove and shot a couple of different view in images below... |
 |
| Aother view |
To0 red and attention getter that to leave it out will be a waste
 |
| Rather than queue up i prefer to shot the photographer as well. |
 |
| THe 3D - spiky structure I have seen before ..... mathlab demo? |
 |
| I decided to zoom in the portions - like in this one the book sprung poisonous toadstool.... ( my interpretation) |
 |
| Incomplete if i dont show you how the head look like right? |
 |
| Here is the sequence of looking at this exhibition. |

 |
| Dining in Mangrove. Here you could see the mangrove supporting roots, high back chair and the sliced-logs meal. |
 |
| Static versus dynamic |
 |
| Flying machine for mounting a camera beneath |
 |
| Calabash tree. |
 |
| GO and take sometime to read this... great capture of how children interact with trees!!!! ( Conceptualized by adult and shot by prof i thins) |
 |
| Let there be light....the spirals resembled a flying machine |
 |
| I remembered seeing the same theme in last Garden Festival .. |
For the outdoor when light is plenty.. zooming in or close up is never a problem...
 |
| On hindsight i should have focused on the other one.... |
 |
| Kampong shrub. Castor plants and i didn't recall i ever saw them flowering....The seed contains racin - one of the most potent poison. |
 |
| I shoot three version of this.. this is the pulled in version. |
 |
| Looking at holes through the foliage and saw this.. |
 |
| I waited for the person to move away letting in the sun to illuminate the match-head pollen sags |
 |
| She lents a helping hand to right a drooping Lily's head |
 |
| Ficus carica (Turkey fig) |
 |
 |
| The reflective overhead plant-container gave a diffuse look of the photographers |
