BOTTOM-UP,

LOOKING AT LIFE FROM ANOTHER ANGLE.

What gave me this idea of bottom-up? I was in Ipoh to attend a prayer function and was sprawled on the hotel bed when I saw this lamp from bottom-up. Wow, the light came through like planet Mars! What if I took pictures from a bottom-up approach? Hmmm, an interesting project!

      Chandelier in the Ipoh gurdwara where the prayers for Aunty were held. Hibiscus outside my sister-in-law Shil's house. 

    Parasitic plants hanging from tree trunks. We get so much sunshine and rain here, many of our trees support other plant growth, be it parasitic, commensalism or symbiotic. 

My pink lilies bloomed as the weather got hotter.

           The desert rose blooms all year.

 Garlic vine flowers bloom in huge inflorescence in different shades of pink and purple that cover entire walls and fences. Unfortunately, they only last for 2 days tops before withering away.

This precious yellow ylang-ylang flower is used in essential oils and fragrances. The flowers attract ants that practically live on the flowers permanently. 

This variegated plant has its limes and leaves in a fusion of green, yellow and cream. I use the limes for cooking and to make calamansi ice cubes. 

This is my sky if I were an ANT.
