Just when I thought I definitely had to skip this week’s Photo Hunters theme, hanging, since I couldn’t find that one particular picture I had in mind which was to be a hanging bridge amongst the mountain of CDs I have stored….I found more than I expected. :) Since I couldn’t decide which one to post, I’m doing all 3.

I can’t remember what type of monkeys these are but they sure are hanging off the edge just to get a sip of water. If I am not mistaken, they are a native of China. But I could be dead wrong! :P

These are spider monkeys and they are known to be very playful. And it is quite obvious as they are seen here hanging from branches, and swinging from one branch to another.

This particular shot was taken during the festive season called Deepavali also known as the festival of light that is celebrated by the Hindus. These stalls were selling lots of decorations hanging from the top which will certainly brighten up any home. :) They are very colorful aren’t they?

All three shots were taken in Singapore during my trip there in 2005 - it’s been awhile no doubt but the memory is still fresh as Ted and I got engaged on Oct 2005. :) Happy times.

Hope you enjoyed that - have a good weekend!
