Foto Friday - Flowers



1. This is a blooming Tecoma at Aulong New Village, Taiping. I was attracted by its unique shape.
2. I captured this at the food court outside the jetty at Changi Village, Singapore. I was there in the morning to taste its famous Nasi Lemak when I spotted what looked like a white Christmas tree!
3. According to search, this is also a Tecoma tree although the flower clusters are different.. I shot this at the Taiping Lake Garden.
4. This is a lily pond at the Taiping Lake Garden. This is the first time there so many blooms. Previously there were only about two or three blooms.

Hi Lee: Such wonderful pics. I love that white Christmas tree, and the place with the bridge looks so peaceful and beautiful.

I also like the photo with the bridge. It looks peaceful!

We have a round pond in the back yard with lily pads. We have white and pink flowers. In that pond we have minnows of all sizes. The other pond had Koi, large goldfish, and large and small minnows. We recently put some lily pads in but they haven't flowered yet. Actually we think the fish eat them...

What a glorious display of color that is Lee. Good shots.

It only takes a drop of ink to make a million people think. There are many stories.
