day 30

El cementerio Bukit Brown es un viejo cementerio chino, el mas grande fuera de China. Estaba un poco olvidado, pero se esta haciendo famoso porque quiere construir una autovia que lo atravesaria. Esta situado en un bosque tropical, por lo que hay que llevar ropa apropiada, no como fuimos nosotros, porque las hormigas muerden!

Bukit Brown Cemetery is the largest Chinese Cemetery outside China. Even some Singaporeans didn't know about it, but it is now "famous" because a highway is planed to cross it. It is located in a rainforest, so it is important to wear the right clothes or ants, among other bugs, will bit you!

day 29



En el desfile del dia nacional, aunque no entiendo que fuera el sabado, si el dia nacional es en Agosto. Con despliegue militar aereo incluido, claro.

This was is during the National Day Parade, although I don't understand why it was on Saturday, if the national day is in August. Of course, there was a military air show.

day 28


Los caracteres chinos me llaman mucho la atencion.  Estoy intentando aprender un poco de chino, aunque no se el significado de este.

Chinese characters are so interesting. I'm trying to learn some Chinese, but I don't know the meaning of this one.

day 27


Imagino que esta decoracion tendra algun significado.

I guess this kind of decoration has a meaning, but I don't know it....

day 26


Tenia pensado salir por la tarde a hacer fotos, pero se ha puesto a llover. Este es otro de mis proyectos, ahora tengo que ponerme a coser!

I planned to go out in the afternoon, but it was raining. This is another project I have, now I have to start sewing!

day 25


Aun sigo con el cubo de rubik, a ver si soy capaz de hacerlo en menos movimientos :)

I keep playing Rubik cube, trying to solve it using less number of moves

day 24


Ya sabeis donde, no?

I don't need to say where it is, right?

day 23

Si, estan patinando sobre hielo. Se hace raro cuando fuera hay 30 grados. Pero parece que tiene bastante exito, quizas porque se esta fresquito.

They are ice-skating. It is pretty odd when the outside temperature is 30 Celsius degrees. But maybe because it is cold there, it is more successful :)

day 22


El humo nos ha dado un pequeno descanso y hemos podido salir un poco. Esto el paseo entre VivoCity y Sentosa
Esta un poco movida.... pero para ser sin tripode no tengo mal pulso

The haze gave us a break and we could go out. This is the Sentosa Boardwalk, the path that connects VivoCity and Sentosa.

day 21


Menudos dias llevamos con el humo.... estas mascarillas se han agotado!!! yo intento no salir mucho, aunque tengo una por si acaso.

The air quality is still pretty bad, and masks are sold out in Singapore!!! I try to stay at home as much as possible, but I have a mask, just in case.

La calidad del aire sigue siendo muy mala, pero ya que estaba en Orchard Road, he aprovechado.

day 19

Esta mañana parecia que el humo de los dos ultimos dias se habia ido, pero a medio dia ha vuelto con mas fuerza, asi que no he podido salir. Sobre la foto poco que comentar, los pies son feos.

It looked like the haze we had the last two days was gone this morning, but it came back at noon, so I couldn't go out this afternoon. Just one comment about this photo, I don't like feet

day 18

day 9

La "caza" de bichos ha tenido resultado!!! Esta mariposa decidio posar para nosotros un rato; aunque probablemente su intencion, con esas alas tan abiertas, era asustarnos.Que suerte!!!

The bugs "hunting" finally yield benefits!!! This butterfly posed for us for almost 1 minute. Although its intention probably was to scare us with its wide open wings. We were so lucky!!

day 8


El sabado fuimos a dar una vuelta y pasamos por aqui, el Anderson Waves Bridge, un puente peatonal que une Telok Blangah Hill Park y Mount Faber Park.

We went on Saturday for a walk, and crossed the Anderson Waves Bridge, a pedestrian bridge that connects Telok Blangah Hill Park and Mount Faber Park

Por poco se me olvida hoy la foto! Asi que la he hecho de lo que mas a mano tenia :) Podia haberle quitado el polvo, pero me gusta el resultado

day 3


Una foto que queria hacer. Aunque no se si un libro de Stephen King era el mas apropiado, jeje!!

This is a photo I wanted to take. Although I'm not sure if a Stephen King's book was the best option, hehe!

Hoy la foto la he hecho en casa. Seguire probando para mejorar la iluminacion

Today I took the picture at home. I need to improve the light.

day 1

Hoy hemos ido al jardin botanico, asi que voy a empezar con este foto. Aunque realmente habiamos ido a hacer fotos a bichos

We went this morning to the botanic gardens, so I'll start the challenge with this photo.

empezando el reto

Buscando fotos el otro dia en Internet lei sobre este reto. Se trata de hacer una foto cada dia durante un año. Como este mes cumplo 30, he pensado que seria un buen momento para empezarlo. En principio quiero hacer las fotos siempre con la camara, aunque quizas sea un poco dificil, asi que no descarto que alguna sea con el movil. Lo que no se es si sere capaz tambien de ir publicandolas a diario, pero lo intentare! Pues nada, a ver si soy capaz de llegar a la foto numero 365 :)

I found about this challenge a few days ago. The idea is to take a photo every day during one year. Since this month it is my birthday and I'll be 30, I thought it would be a good time to start it. I'll try to take every picture with my camera, but it might be quite difficult sometimes, so it is possible I use my cellphone too. I'll try to post the photo everyday, but I cant promise it!  
Let's see if I can reach the 365th photo :)
