屬於我們的夏日大挑戰-陪考篇

話說前些年看樂多辦了幾屆的夏日blog傳說一直讓我覺得頗有趣, 很納悶pixnet怎麼沒跟進(或來點類似的活動), 不知是不是大社區跟小社區的區別...? (感覺上樂多溫馨多了呀)。 所以, 在KC家看到屬於我們的夏日大挑戰時, 不禁眼睛一亮。

簡言之是每天輪流出題, 參加者每天依題拍照一張, 貼在自己的blog上。 覺得這樣的方式比樂多高妙上許多, 主要是每天換著題目玩, 一來可以真正挑戰"每日一拍", 看能激出怎樣的潛能; 二來也可以創意互見, 新鮮又有趣; 要不然同一個主題要一連寫上30篇想必寫到後來也會瑣然無趣吧。

For your entertainment only

We were on the way to a friend's place and had to stop at costco for my mom's final shopping (the vitamin orders she got weight more than 30kg already!). I don't think it's a good idea to bring the baby to the store now with the threaten of swine flu, so we waited in my company which is very close by.

218 - San Jose Municipal Rose Garden

2009/04/26

What amazes me most is not the beauty of this park, but the fact that I am not aware of this place all these years I've been here. Yet it's not surprising at all, for NONE of the people I talked to knows this little gem in the city. Is it because the valley is too big for us to get to know it in more detail, or is it because we kind of limited ourselves to only the things we are familiar with?

214 - Elizabeth Gamble Garden (3) [小毛篇]

牛刀小試的結果, 還真不錯呢! 寶寶沒有哭鬧--只有在車停下來等紅燈時會很精準地在三秒內開始哼哼嗨嗨, 但一起動就靜下來了。 光線太強, 一照到陽光眼睛就猛地瞇起來的模樣實在可愛, 不過還是儘量不要讓他浸在陽光裡, 所以照起相來小朋友的臉幾乎都是在陰影中。 因此不論是坐推車還是抱著, 要拍照都頗難, 但陽光大好春風和暖繁花盛開的明豔中, 讓我很想鼓吹大家都帶著小朋友去留影幾場記憶中會永遠繽紛的童年色彩呢。

214 - Elizabeth Gamble Garden 之2-2

雖然去年說了不是很愛這花, 可看著看著, 覺得這花還蠻有味道的呢! 顏色精緻, 長相標緻, 忍不住還是一朵一朵拍下來。

214 - Elizabeth Gamble Garden 之2-1

2009/03/29

又是煙花三月的春暖花開時節。 今年因為生活作息上的改變, 既無能到街上看人行道上的桃李爭春, 也無緣一睹油菜花(應該是芥末花?)滿地金燦的絢麗, 更別提遠方的果樹花開, 和滿山遍野的野花恣意盛開。 不甘寂寞的結果(好想快快回到步道上喔!), 就來逛花園吧!
