Old Madrid Gateway


Old Madrid Gateway, originally uploaded by Adrian Tan.

It's been a while since I last blogged or put any picture up. I'm not exactly busy..but I just didn't have the mood.

A lot of shit has been going on with me, and I'm not particularly comfortable to share it with any Tom, Dick and Harry.

Anyway, I've decided to put a few pictures up today. This is the old Real Madrid gateway. Back in those days with castles, knights, horses and etc...when Madrid was surrounded by a wall....this is the gateway to enter the city, everything is gone now except for this structure.

I didn't carry my tripod that night, so I had to use other things to get a stable foundation for this shot. For this one...I had to use a trash bin! I left my camera sitting on the trash bin, while me squatting down adjusting the camera to get a good shot.
Anuar took a picture of me taking this shot...BABI LU!!

If you are a real football/soccer fan like me, we should all know this stadium... Estadio Santiago Bernabeu. Yes, the home of Real Madrid FC...supposedly, the best football club in the world...maybe not right now! Yup, this is where Zidane, Beckham, Ronaldo, Robinho and gang shower together after every game here.

Madrid, Park

I'm really bad with names...but I know that this picture was taken in a huge park right in the middle of Madrid.

I have a couple of good shots of the park itself...again, I will process it when I have the time.
