“Bowring Park Bungalow” is the name of this photo and shows the beautiful bungalow in the background. At the heart of Bowring Park is the Bungalow which is a historic building surrounded by beautiful lawns and gardens, highlighted by a beautiful Weeping Beach Tree. Ever since its erection in 1915, the Bowring Park Bungalow has been a popular meeting place for park patrons. In its early years, people would gather there to warm themselves by a roaring fire after a day's ice skating. For many years, a canteen was in operation, providing cool refreshment on hot summer's days. Also, the front lawn of the Bungalow has always played host to numerous concerts and festivals annually, attended by countless happy visitors. The lawn is also quite popular for sun bathing and family picnics, all amid a lush carpet of grass and many blue chip trees. In fact, the majority of trees found in the Bungalow area have been planted by visiting dignitaries. Being a place of such impeccable beauty, it also comes as no surprise that the Bungalow is a favorite location for wedding receptions.
In the center of the lawn is another gift of Sir Edgar Bowring, a Sundial.
As a young boy, I enjoyed many tasty ice creams here.
The flowers finally are blooming! Using landscape mode, f- stop 7.1, Shutter speed 1/400, ISO 100, I took several shots using the flowers as a focal point. This is the result.
Walking in the park can be fun with a camera and it often brings back fond memori |
