Looking at all the files and photographs I had in my pendrive I came around this one. Honestly I had completely forgot about all this pictures and I had no recollection of having them on my pendrive so I guess this time I got lucky.
I took this picture last year sometime around February when I was on a trip in Shanghai, China. I remember that that night, I went with my family and some relatives for a walk at some touristic place in town, known for being one of the most beautiful places to visit in the New Year. The place is really popular for the Chinese ancient architecture and all the lights at night-time. It was a really beautiful place, filled with lights because of the festivities and lots of people walking around. Really...it was so crowded that I could barely see where I was going or let alone walk and keep track of my little brother and family. I was a little stressed because of the crowd but it was a funny experience nonetheless. I even remember that we couldn't pass through a group of people looking at something and we did't get to see all of the place.
The picture was taken when we reached the center of the place. There was this huge bunny thing (I don't really know if it counts as a statue) and I remember that the first thought that came to mind was that it was ugly and somewhat creepy. But looking at it now, it's not that terrible *laughs*. Well the bunny thing was because of the Year of the Rabbit in the Chinese Zodiac. Every year they make a giant animal based on the year and zodiac. I think this one picture came out pretty well now that I see it again.
