Cannon Ball Tree

Introducing the Cannon Ball Tree (aka Couroupita guianensis), which are widely seen in Penang Botanical Garden. Photos are taken with my Cannon Canon camera on the same day when I took shots of Monkeys eating Ice Cream.

The Budding Flower...

Pinkish flower.. Leng Mou?

This is the final product. The gigantic Cannon Ball. Might be can use it for bowling. If not, u can also use it to throw at those homo sapiens or whatever species whom u dislike. But don't throw it at my dearie Ah Boy.

More Klang-klang ~ Ada besar, ada kecik. Pilih mana yang hang suka...

Further info, only for those who are interested to make cannon balls know more about Cannon Ball Trees..
