day 364


I finally tried using Photoshop! I liked the picture, but since the background was green too, the plant didn't stand out very much. So we thought about using this B&W with a color. Not bad for the first time, what do you think?

Por fin me he decidido a usar Photoshop! Me gustaba esta foto, pero como el fondo tambien era verde, la planta no destacaba mucho. Asi que pensamos en utilizar el blanco y negro con un color. No esta mal para ser la primera vez, que os parece?

day 360


Went back to the Botanic garden before my mahjong game, since I wanted to retake this picture. It could be one of my options for my photography group's next topic: frame within the frame.

He vuelto al jardin botanico antes de ir a jugar al mahjong, para volver a hacer esta foto. Podria ser una de mis opctiones para el proximo tema del grupo de fotografia: encuadre natural.

Chopin's statue playing piano at the botanic garden. I would like to go to one the concerts there.

Estatua de Chopin tocando el piano en el jardin botanico. A ver si algun dia voy a alguno de los conciertos que hacer alli.

day 356


I saw the butterfly and run to take some pictures before it flied away. I'm afraid it wasn't going to move.... :(

Cuando vi la mariposa fui corriendo a hacer algunas fotos antes de que se fuera volando. Me temo que no se iba a mover.... :(

day 353


Despite the hot weather, I always enjoy a walk to the Botanic Garden. Since it is close to where I play mahjong, I went for a walk in the morning and took some pictures.

A pesar del calor, me gusta ir de vez en cuando al Botanic Garden, y como pilla cerca de donde juego al mahjong, me he ido a dar un paseo por la mañana y he hecho algunas fotos

day 290


Last Monday I had a busy day. I resumed my Chinese class in the morning, and played mahjong for the first time in the afternoon, it was fun! In the evening I had a book club meeting, so I had a few spare hours, but it wasn't worth it to go home. Since the botanic garden is nearby were I was and it had stopped raining (yes! It started raining yesterday!!), a walk was a good option to spend my time.

El lunes pasado tuve un dia muy entretenido. Hemos vuelto a empezar con las clases de Chino por las mañanas, y por la tarde aprendi a jugar al mahjong, que divertido! Por la tarde tenia una reunion de un club de lectura, asi que tenia unas horas libres, y no merecia la pena irme a casa. Como el botanic garden esta cerca de donde estaba yo, y habia dejado de llover (si!! ayer empezo a llover!!), irme a dar un paseo por alli era una buena opcion.

day 270


During the CNY there was curly bamboo everywhere too, and I was thinking about buying one. Even though it should not be difficult to take care of it, given my previous experiences with plants, I'm not sure I could keep it alive...

Despues de ver tantas plantas de bamboo durante el año nuevo chino, estaba pensando en comprarme una. Pero dada mi historia con las plantas, y aunque teoricamente estas plantas no requieren muchos cuidados, no estoy segura de que sea capaz de que no se muriese....

More orchids. I liked the masks that decorated this area of the garden.

Mar orquideas. Me gustaron las mascaras que habia de decoracion en esta parte del jardin.

Interesting orchid, looks a little like a carnivore flower, right?

Que orquidea tan chula, parece como una planta carnivora, verdad?

day 256


I went to the Botanic Garden with the AWA photography group, and we entered the Orchid Garden. There were some horses' heads as CNY decoration but I didn't like them that much... At least this one had the whole body. And again more tangerines.

He estado en el Botanic Garden con el grupo de fotografia del AWA, y hemos entrado en el Jardin de Orquideas. Tambien alli habia decoracion del Año Nuevo Chino, aunque eran unas cabezas de caballo clavadas en una fuente y no me han gustado mucho.... Al menos este tiene todo el cuerpo. Y de nuevo mas mandarinas.

I was near Botanic Garden and went there for a walk. This pic is to all my friends who just became a mum and all the ones that are mother-to-be. I'm looking to meet all the babies!

day 52



I went this afternoon with a friend to the Botanic Garden. Despite the hot weather, it was a very nice walk.

Esta tarde he ido a dar un paseo al Botanic Garden con una amiga. Hacia un poco de calor, pero siempre hay un banco a la sombra para descansar.

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.
