Pea in a pod


This one is just a close up of a dried long bean seed. We've harvested some fresh ones and served fresh with shrimp paste (belacan). We eat it raw!

Baby eggplant

I think eggplant makes cute baby! This one looks just like a human baby with a cute hat!

Hairy shoots


Look snowy with all the white hairs on these shoots of bitter gourd plant. I love eating bitter gourd, love it fresh! Bitter but yummy! Do you know that it's a good source of vitamin C and vitamin A, phosphorus, and iron?

It's raining lilies!



It has been raining all week and today morning I was surprised with a beautiful sight when I opened the door. The rain lilies were blooming in our garden!

Flower: Deep Pink Rose


More roses from the garden. Love, love, love the deep pink color.

Each rose color has its own unique meaning. Deep Pink simply means "thank you". If someone you know does something nice for you, a deep pink rose is a good way of saying "thank you".

Entangled in a love knot


This caught my attention. At first I thought it was a love triangle but there were two curls and two leaves. Will check which curl belongs to which leaf tomorrow. Didn't crossed my mind to check their status out while taking this picture.

Flower: Rain Lily


Rain Lily is also known as Fairy Lily. The name "rain lily" comes from its tendency to send up flushes of flowers few days after a soaking rain. Its slender green leaves will stick around even after the short-lived flowers wither.

Flower is from my mom's garden.

Flower: Roses are pink and yellow too...



They're just buds a week ago.

A rose is a perennial shrub or vine of the genus Rosa, within the family rosaceae, that contains over 100 species and probably have sub-levels in between. Thus, it's very hard to narrow down the exact names. Most are native to Asia, with smaller numbers of species native to Europe, North America, and northwest Africa.

The unseen world

This is just a typical wild plant, nothing interesting or fancy about it. But wait, you need to see beyond your two naked eyes...



...and see the details up-close. Beautiful isn't it? This was taken using macro technique. I have a fascination for the world of unseen intricate beauty and digital macro photography help me reveals it. Okies, will show more of my macro shots later.
