Photo HuntIt’s time! I missed last week’s installment because I couldn’t think of anything hot. This week’s theme is RED and I’d like to show you some pictures of the red flowers that I took during my trip to Chiangmai in July this year.

The following pictures were taken at the Bhuping Palace, the King’s official residence, and apparently, the garden in the palace is only open for visitors whenever the royal family is out of town, usually on weekends. We were indeed very lucky that the royal family was away when we were there, so all of us busybodies had a “peek” into what a Thai palace looks like, hahhaha.. The garden in the palace was planted with lots and lots of flowers, which according to the tour guide, are the Queen’s favourites :D

The orchid (below) was taken at the Sai Nam Phung Orchid Farm, which houses a lot of different varieties of orchids.

    The 2nd and 3rd blooms are just so stunning that I can’t believe it. The petals, the middles. They are unusual yet familiar. OUtstanding job.
