My Wandering Wednesday Series are dedicated to the flight of my imagination now and then, captured by my camera lens. And then, songs and movies simply fill in the gaps for the right captions! I try to give you the back story of the picture too. Perhaps you may see a tale hidden there. Check the previous posts here.
A happy place is where you can go every now and then. You reminisce, recall, release and rejuvenate. We all have that special somewhere to return to, always. For me it is always in the arms of nature and near a water body. I feel, I was born to be a mermaid at times. And then I am woken up to reality when the phone alarm goes off and says, ‘Wednesday, time to post’.
This picture was taken on my trip to Singapore this April at the Botanic Gardens. A must visit for every nature enthusiast. This picture does not do justice to the sounds and visuals of nature. You will need the mind’s eye to capture it forever.

Excellent capture of the beautiful colors. My sanctuary is nature as well beside a water body and I have mentioned a lot many times to my friends that ‘I was a mermaid in past life’. High five on that one! 😀
Nice post!
Hi 5 indeed 🙂 And I am gathering your day is going rather well 🙂
How beautiful – looks so peaceful and tranquil.
And the pic does not even do half the justice to what it really was Suzy…..simply beautiful.
and I thought this was some Nancy’s secret garden type post ! 😛
lol jokes apart… that place does seem such a wonderful place to sit and reflect or just do nothing… sigh…
Too many teen novels eh? Aren’t you glad it wasn’t?
Wow! What I wouldn’t give to spend an hour alone there! Beautiful picture and two of my childhood favorites – Sound of Music and Secret Garden (the book in this case).
Haven’t read that book…..but yup Sound of Music….who hasn’t seen it? Glad you liked it Corinne 🙂
I would like to go to a place like this. Serene and peaceful.
You should…………it was heavenly.
Such a beautiful capture… I loved the pic and your description. How wonderful it would be to spend some time on that lonely little bench… sigh!
Oh the bench was more serene me thinks. It was beautiful.
yesterday i read artis japan trip with pretty amazing pics and today your serene click,may be its a sign that im gonna visit such a place soon.. *sigh
Take that trip now! This is a loud and clear SIGN 🙂
I have something with water too. The drabest place gets infused with magic if there is a water body there. Specially water that moves…
Dagny
See, I knew we had much more in common Dagny…..water is just so fluid and fresh…..clears everything.
Ha what a place to sit and do some hunk watching 😉
I did do a lot of bird watching……of the fluttering kinds 🙂
what a beautiful place to unwind.
Indeed, it was.
Aaahhh this is so beautiful. When I feel very much at peace with the world , I often dream of a serene garden. This tranquil space just resembles that 🙂
I thought so too, Sri. It was so serene, it looked perfect.
I have one! Chotu sa, made of 5 potted plants in my balcony 🙂 but I would love to visit this place.
