This is not the Three Musketrees. This is from another garden. Don't know why they have to plant 3.

Thank you. I went back this morning in the haze. Colour all washed out by the haze. But they have a different charm. I hope colour is not the only one.
This is a colour photo of the chef I took. It looks quite different in colour - the foreground of cooking ingredients become added interests. See if you find it so.

Thank you. He is also a good chef. I had to order something to keep him busy.

Thank you. I always have problem deciding on a close-up, while excluding all the surroundings. It relies a lot on colour and texture. So, I appreciate that you like it.
The Third Lake is the "neglected" lake - less frequented. You won't find too many fast-pace joggers, but rather older folks strolling, and yogi gyrating. It was a glorious morning, about 8.30 am. This is our Autumn. The leaves oblige us by turning brown. It is 29 degree.

Old structures, like this pagoda, can stand in its original beauty through the years. The Swinging Child is just on the immediate right, if you sit here.

Thank you. Old, but beautiful and sturdy craftsmanship. A joy. Glad you like it.
I like the way the child rises just above those bushes below her, and swung towards those distant trees. That is the way to swing a child, properly.

Thank you. I have visited this spot since the 80s, but this is the first photo I have taken of the Swinging Child. Many such statutes have disappeared from the Botanic Garden. I am glad I kept this one, at least. The girl resembles her mother. A chip off the old block.
