Travel Photo Carnival – “Favourite Flora”
This is our entry photograph for the Travel Photo Carnival competition currently hosted on Kimmy and Drew’s website AfterGlobe.
The photo was taken in the Cameron Highlands, Malaysia in March 2011.
“One of our RTW trip highlights was a visit to the Cameron Highlands in Malaysia as it is so quintessentially English and really reminded us of home. This photograph of a Pink Aster was taken during a day trip around the town of Tanah Rata. Tea, strawberries, curry and a lovely stroll in the countryside – what more do you need?!” – Danielle from TrekSnappy
