Well... honestly folks... this pot of tea is enough for everyone in TL... lol... don't believe me? It is as tall as me, maybe taller then me, and 3 times bigger then me, so... a tea pot that big surely enough for all of us, so what do you say? come and join me for a cup of tea? :D

Taken this in Lantern festival at Albert Park last nite, I just can't resist taking photos of them, they just grow in the dark... (ummm... yes, they do!) This year lantern apperently nicer then the one last year, but unfortunatelly I didn't manage to finish viewing them all. Too many people too packed to walk around with my young son, and have to take photos in the same time. At one stage, a group of people passes by us and seperate both of us for a min, my little boy is very smart (ha! Which parents don't think their kids are smart? :P) anyway, he was about 5 feet away and start yelling "Mummy... " as the group of people have push him off.. so, when we get back together, I decided no more photograph till we find a spot which don't have many people, yes you guess it, no more photos from then on. So, that's the whole story, and at the end, we only manage 1/3 of the showground. We left as night get darker and more people coming in.

What awesome pieces of china!! Yes, Sweety, they do look real, and it is only the little holes of light that show through that make us realise that they are lanterns.
Amazingly built
Thanks MF
Janice

Excellent composition on this tea pot. A great shot.
Best wishes,
Achim

Another beauty, Sweety. This must be something to see, indeed. I can relate to the too many people thing, people walking in front of the shot you try to get or show your arm just as you click. You obviously did not have either of these in this wonderful presentation. Great light and colour and perfectly composed.
Warm Regards
Wanda

nice light and mood sweety :)
good use of the ambience light for this

Very nicely captured, Sweety! Those steady hands delivered a great job once again, and impressive that you didn't catch any of the crowd (that I can see) in the shot.
Great job :)
