Fading Beauty

There isn't a better place than the "Singapore Botanical Gardens" to iron out the rustiness out of my photo taking skills.I have been quite tardy n lazy off late & I really needed a good workout with my camera.

Armed with my Canon EOS 300 , I finally ventured out last Sunday to my favourite shooting location. As luck wud have it,I was in for a major dissapointment.The place now resembles a war-zone with trenches dug up in every possible corner !! The whole place has been turned Upside Down for a major makeover , and believe U me, It's not a pretty sight right now..

I got no new pics to show from this outing (cud just manage 3 sorry looking frames) . So the next best thing I cud do was to excavate some of my old pics taken during previous excursions to same place.

The "Fading Beauty" featured here is amongst one of my most satisfying pics. I am glad that I was able to capture this leaf before it withered totally into oblivion..

U can find couple of more pics in my Flickr Folder http://www.flickr.com/photos/parikrama_sg/sets/271743/

Will be posting some more (old) pics soon. Right now my 20 MB per month quota offered by flicker is almost consumed **sigh** Any suggestions vis-a-vis hassle free photo upload sites will be highly appreciated !!
