爸爸,我大大的时候... (Papa, when I grow up...)

Ying - Potential Photographer

最近,女儿时常挂在嘴边说:
“爸爸,我大大的时候,我可以驾车了。”
“爸爸,我大大的时候,我可以吃冰淇淋。”
“爸爸,我大大的时候,我可以自己去走街。”

在认同的同时,我无法否认心底里的另一种交替的期待:“爸爸,我大大的时候,我可以照顾您了。”

Recently, daughter always have the same statement from her mouth:
"Papa, when I grow up, I can drive car."
"Papa, when I grow up, I can eat ice cream."
"Papa, when I grow up, I can go shopping myself."

While admitted this, undeniably I'm struggling from my deepest heart expectation on her statement: "Papa, when I grow up, I can take care of you."

Who said you must buy 2 dozens of roses? Why can't I plant and give you 2 dozens of roses? Yup 24 roses at this moment of posting!

If you use your heart to plant it, you see the result. I like roses :-)

Have great days and take good care.

Plants Portrait

Well, initially I would like to capture my red rose tree bought two years plus ago and the flowers are still "growing" unexpectedly :-) For guy, plant a rose is far more worth to just buy flowers for your partner. Added another yellow rose which I hardly resist to capture it as well. Now I have a retangular pot to enjoy two different colours of roses.

Also in conjunction with Penang Floral Exhibition, I totally shopped and took away 4 plants in one buy. And two lovely pots are my additional rewards with discounted price.

Red roses which already last for two years plus, my 2006 Christmas gift for my lovely wife.

Light yellow rose added in upon my wife specific request for long time. Hardly find a beautiful light yellow roses

Japanese roses - it is funny to see the flowers will only open whenever there is direct sun ray. Intended to capture a few times but failed - no sun ray :-) Interesting! Dedicate this to my eldest daughter, Ying.

Malapodium - just love to see something striking yellow colour in among green leaves. Dedicated for my son, Yang.

Dracena - checked with seller about this specific name. I have totally no idea plant name at all, still in learning stage. Bought to align with my department's organized green project.

The rest of the captures were from my department's green project plants. With little "studio-type" setup with warm lights, the end result is amazing to me.

Kar Wai & Bee Ling (Registration of Marriage)

It is my honour to capture this meaningful session for Kar Wai & Bee Ling's ROM. The relatives, environment, everyone carries a smiley face and piece of wish for both of them. The moment to sign the legal document to "upgrade" become husband and wife carries the proof of time to move to next level of life together; the braveness that promise to sustain the relationship and the mutual joy that reflecting on their faces.

I congratulate them again - Kar Wai & Bee Ling :-) Below are some captures.
