Random Thoughts

Some recent happenings induced me to think about the types of human relation which my surrounding people and I have built. I come to realise that there are tons of people who conduct themselves differently in front of different people. I admits that I practice this "skill" to an extend. Is this really the correct and only way to survive in society? Why is it such a deep rooted culture that is deem acceptable for the past centuries? On the other hand, I greatly appreciate the guy who induced me to think about this issue. It is now that I realises I have not treasured those around me who are true to their heart, my dad, my mum, my good friends TH, OK & HW.

I already have a piece of work in mind in this line of thoughts, just that I don't have time to materialise it now due to the crazy exams.

Take care to you who is reading this entry~

Random Thoughts

I was looking through some of the shots taken some time back.
Shots that bring back memories but not done quite well.
Details lost in the shadows and highlights are lost forever......

Chip n Dale



Chip n Dale are my favorate characters from Disney. The use of similar tones in the composition allows the object to blend well into the surrounding yet stands out at the same time. This is also the first time that I am trying out a two light set-up. I have my bicycle light as my key light. My hot-shoe flash bounced light off the walls to take out any harsh shadows.

Photography is not about how good your equipment is.
It is about how developed your ideas are.

Take Me Home



There were quite a few thoughts on my mind when I composed this shot. I wanted to express the idea that it has been quite some years since I travel the journey of life. However, being quite a sentimental guy, I still look back every now and then, taking with me only the good memories and leaving the bad ones behind. This photo was shot a year back with my compact Fuji fd31. From then till now, I am exploring more on composition. This shot was then used in an advertising project by a friend of mine.

Reservoir Sunset 2



This shot is taken about 10 minutes after the shot in my previous post. The change in color tone of the evening sky within minutes simply amaze me.

Reservoir Sunset 1



This shot was taken at a reservoir near my house. How could I have missed such beautiful sunset for so many years... I even travelled to different corners of the island seeking a good shot. Maybe that is human nature. We never realise that the perfect moment can be achieved with such ease.

Melting...



Planet Earth, our one and only home, is experiencing a phenomenon commonly known as global warming. It is caused by an increase in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere due to human activities. Due to a rise in the average global temperature, glaciers are melting at an increased rate. The additional influx of fresh water can result in severe problems such as sea level rise. This capture aims at presenting the scenario through an object which we see in our everyday life - the ice cube.

夜空 彩虹



This shot was taken during the Singapore Firework Festival 2008. I was using my compact to try my hand on firework same time last year but was fustrated as I could not gain complete control over the aperture and shutter.

You & Me


I love sunset. This shot was taken at Changi Boardwalk. I wanted to move away from the conventional shot & these birds just happen to catch my attention. I was using my 18-55mm hence, was unable to move any closer to them. A minimalist approach was taken towards the composition.

迷失

天上的繁星 闪烁不定
寂寞该往那里
冰冷的浪花 拍打不停
伴随黑夜宁静

游牧的人民 漂泊不停
幸福该往那里
自编歌曲里 人生的忐忑
是否刻骨又铭心

某年某月某日的决定
谁来给我指引
你是回忆 快乐的点滴
如今梦里唤醒

提琴弦音 会否更动听
他日心情断定
今日决定 他日的故事
谁来和我编织

Stay Strong



This small plant caught my attention when I was at Fort Canning last Sunday. One should stay strong always no matter how tough life is, just like this plant.

安琪儿

二十二年来 男孩一直在等待
盼望安琪儿的到来
每一天 每一夜
时时刻刻发呆

他和她未来的点滴
总是浮现在脑海
不知何时会相遇
或许命运 自有主宰

Can you set me free
解开我心中枷锁
让我不再迷惑
不再为过去而活

Is this heaven's will
相隔两地的你我
没有约定和承诺
只有一丝丝 连络

静视着窗外 对岸霓虹灯在摇摆
手中铅笔纸上往来
每一字 每一句
都是失落无奈

或许命运已有安排
或许我不应随心猜
心情如风叶随风摆
心底只望 和她拥抱未来

Can you set me free
解开我心中枷锁
让我不再迷惑
不再为过去而活

Is this heaven's will
相隔两地的你我
没有约定和承诺
只有一丝丝 连络

This lyrics was written 2 years ago, for someone special...

忙碌的生活
让人迷失自我
做人得过且过
寻回最真实的我

累人的生活
仍有回忆伴随我
生命美好的点滴
会否让梦永远不落

My Hero... Always...



I was resting on the sofa after a long day out at work. I don't really like my current working environment and have always want to resign early. After all, it is only a holiday job. That very moment, someone brought out his tools and started preparing for the day ahead. I suddenly realise how selfish that thought of mine is. I have a choice to quit whenever I feel tired, but he doesn't...

River Walk 7



Last post for this album of photos.
From this album, I realised the amazing effect of having live subjects inside my composition.
It adds that magical human touch as compared to a pure landscape shot.
Will work towards achieving better effect in the future.

Photography is about capturing the moment, the atmosphere, the mood and most importantly, the story which one's surrounding is trying to tell.

幸福摩天轮



这国度上 天空一片慰蓝
人行道旁 仿佛自我全忘
停下步伐 倾听世界呐喊
世界之大 能否寻得人间天堂
