Lunar New Year at Chinese Gardens 2010

Red flooding Chinese Gardens during this Lunar New Year Season.

Before the crowds arrived, I took this serene shot.

View from the arch door.

The Red Corridor.

Looking at these colorful flags, made me think of Kamandu's trip.

The red bloom in nature

Avatar scene?

An unknown white little flower.

Chinese Painting on the rock.

No man is an island.

The silent army in formation.

The laughing lion, watching the Year of Tiger arriving.

Hope this clip would cheer your Chinese New Year Mood up. The performers were from China.

Wishing everyone out there: A Happy and Prosperous Lunar New Year!

This is a clip generated by my old photos and high quality of voice recording. Those black and white shots were taken when I was around 18 years old, I was stationed at Sembawang Research Station, Farm School for two years. It was run by Primary Production Department the.

Objects around me today

Once I am free, I would walk around and find some interesting things to observe or captured them with my camera phone. Of course, if I have my Canon S90. then it would be very much better. But today I just have my Sony C905.

This is one of my favorite Chinese song, entitled 'Look at you again'. More info is at Youtube video.

REX THEATRE

Rex Theatre accompanied me during my younger days. I still remember that I used to watch the Sunday Morning Show at this theatre very often. In those days, the price of the tickets ranged from 50 cents, one dollar and one dollar fifty cents. Fifty cents is for front stall, one dollar is for back stall and one fifty for circle seats. There were lots of black marketing activities then. We were unable to queue up for tickets, but to buy them from the gangs there with a higher price. But as the show starts, the black market tickets holders will slash their price and try to push the tickets to you. I learned this fast and usually will just loitering around and wait for the show to start, then will wait for them to approach. In this way, I need not pay for a higher price for the show.

I watched quite a number of shows there. Such as Dr. No, Ben Hur, Chinese show such as Bu Liao Qing, etc. In the late 70s, if I am not wrong, Rex Theatre change it policy, and put up Hindu Show, then later, closed down and became a night club.

Last week, I walked pass it, and found that it returned to its Theatre status, but providing Hindu and Indian Film shows. It nice to see it has returned to that status.
