The Flowers I Saw That Day...

The title I gave this post reminds me of an anime called AnoHana. haha It actually has a pretty long title, which translates to "We still don't know the name of the flower we saw that day". I remember having a difficult time recalling the complete Japanese title, but my Japanese friend, who happened to be in Cebu at the time, asked me to repeat the title over and over until I could say it fluently.

Anyway, so much for reminiscing, I'm going to share some photos I took when my father and I went to the Divine Mercy Hill. This time, it's not the view that I'm sharing, but photos of beautiful flowers... and just like the title of that Japanese anime, I also don't know their names. haha But they're so pretty, so forgive me this time. Or if you know what they are, please tell me in the comments. Let's start!

These flowers look more vibrant in person. We just went there at dawn, so there wasn't proper lighting. It would have looked so much better in the sunlight. Still, they're beautiful!

My mom adores these flowers, and she wanted to grow them in our garden. Aside from the vegetable garden, we're planning to have an ornamental garden, including flowers as well.

Actually, my parents went back to this place the next day that my father and I went. We wanted Mama to see the place because we know for sure that she'd love it. And since she loves this flower, they asked the caretaker if they could get some of the dried flowers that fell on the ground, since they're what we need to grow them in the garden. The caretaker of the place readily agreed and even told them to get the withered ones even though they haven't fallen yet. Guess I'll have more subject for photography in the coming days. haha

As for this last photo, I decided to switch the focus. I wanted to see blurry flowers in the foreground and focused the camera on the huge Jesus monument behind. It turned out pretty. :)

So yeah... those were the flowers I saw that day (the name of which I still don't know. haha). Well, there were more flowers, but I didn't have enough time as we had an early class that day.

I'll look for more beautiful stuff to photograph in our future walks. That's it for now. Thanks for checking this post out! See you around! (^^,)/
