Somewhere only we know.

Wow, where did June go?

(Oh right, it was one of the worst working month I have ever experienced.)

So, anyway, I was sorting through old travel photos and I realized there was a period of time when I really liked taking shots of buildings (architectural lines are sexy), displays (feed hoarding desires) or etc. scenes I walked into. Basically nothing with faces inside. And I was never one to take shots of typical tourist shots.

(With food though, I am a completely different photographer. But that's a story for another day.)

















(The night sky was a strange but beautiful sort of purple.)


In many ways, similar to my personal life choices, I like a certain type of anonymity associated with my work - only people, who are in the know, know the who what where; like a private joke or secret shared amongst the innermoist circle. Everytime I meet someone who gets it (whatever "it" might be"), I know that person is a keeper as a friend for life and we will forever more be spending time indulging in our exclusive obsession(s). 

Yes, I weave romantic stories like that in my head all the time. This is why I do not need a physical love story.

My next personal photography assignment will be to have a story behind every shot. That, and also to learn how to capture movement which I am still struggling with.

Just food. Loads of it.

So as it appears, I eat and photograph what I eat a lot.

Cocette, SG

Cedele, SG

Old School Delights, SG

Kinki Restaurant & Bar, SG


Oriole Cafe, SG




Don't blame me, blame my Asian genes. 

My photography style has changed a lot since back then and I don't take as many photos of food anymore. But I'm still fearful of the word 'food tasting' since the '11 and '12 years.

Disney Dreaming: Childhood Dreams

No one can really leave Hong Kong without photos of the Happiest Place on Earth right? Christmas + Disneyland was really something kind of beautiful.
























Unceremoniously shoved around by some rude people (Why in Disneyland why???), but nothing can really spoil my day seeing my favourites cartoons come to live. Mich was the perfect companion with her practical planning on how to tour the place while my free pair of eyes from lack-of-cameras-to-be-busied-with could scan the place for the characters roaming the place - We successfully got photos with Mickey, Minnie and Stitch without much of a queue (hustlin' hustlin')!


Damn Legit.

Side note: By this point of time in the trip, my lens were completely non-functional so all I did was point and shoot hence the less than satisfactory photos. All's well, cause nothing beats spending time looking at the sights and sounds for real.
