pre-Mooncake Festival In Chinese Garden

COVER_PIC_MID_AUTUMN2

In an attempt to conquer visit Chinese Garden in Singapore, various bloggers with lovely nendos and figmas have meet up for a pre-Mid Autumn Festival a.k.a Mooncake festival. Lotsa fun and photo whoring taking on our figures.

Chinese Garden is located on the west side of Singapore, you can travel there by foot after alighting from Chinese Garden MRT station. The ambiance is pretty peaceful and it covers a large area land, locating itself near Jurong lake. On regular days, it is a good place for some strolling and photoshooting while during the mid-autumn festival, the place is lighted with beautiful lanterns around the place. Good place for couples too ^^

Mid autumn festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month, which is supposed to be Saturday next week on the Georgian calendar, hence, this is a pre-mooncake festival fun in Chinese Garden ^^

I hope you enjoyed the photos, here is some Omake for you guys. These pics were taken by myself and I meddled with it for the first time. It is supposed to be HDR but I am not too sure how to get it right. Regardless, I dont really care what is the “standard”, I just do it my way. Comments welcomed :P
