All C&C welcome, thanks for viewing.

Oh, one more last one.

#2 and the last one works for me. Good sharp shot of the lotus.

Are they charging for entry into the Gardens or charging for entry specified spots within the Gardens grounds.

Thanks for sharing, you're getting better and better with your pp.

I like #2 except for the colour.
#5 also very classic

I also like the lotus leaf shots. Interesting.

They have always been charging for entry to the tortise museum. For all others, it is free.
Parking outside is also quite good. 1st hour free. 1hr per subsequent hour.

Gangeslim mentioned.. Highlights and Shadows, then I realised that playing with that setting did help improve a lot of shots. =D

Anyways, it's a fake lotus.. All the lotus shots are of fake ones, hehe.

Ok, I kena a few times already. Entry in normal, normal days is free. But there are days where they pretend to be clearing up, etc.. And "close" the Gardens. But you can enter if you pay money for the Tortoise Museum.. Not trying to be cynical or what, but it's pretty fishy to me. Like trying to milk it for all it's worth. So for this time it was "clearing up CNY deco".. I saw about 2 workers when I was there doing any clearing-up related stuff.

Thanks for the comments, though!

I got #2 when I used Auto-colour.. And it looked better than what I usually do so.. I just kept it that way. Lazy. =D

Yeah, it's supposed to be free. But for people like me who live in the East and go all the way.. They want to charge anything also suck thumb and pay..

Yeah, it's my fault actually, I was trying to entice him to commit suicide (if you don't get what I mean, see my Lomo thread).. $1 for tortoise food to become a tortoise god for 10 minutes. =D

0.o

Got so many! Maybe he's the one I tricked into committing suicide.. =D
Lay fish food one row until the guy walk off the plank into the water. I made sure he was safe and ok though, so don't call SPCA hor.
