About two weeks before the South by Southwest (SXSW) 2013 event held in Austin, Texas, I was pleasantly surprised to receive a Flickr Mail from Flickr‘s marketing manager, Theresa Nguyen. Flickr has come across my photo (above) and would like to showcase it in their gallery at Brazos Hall at SXSW and asked me for… Continue reading Exhibited at SXSW 2013

Moonset Over Marina Bay Sands
I was at Gardens by the Bay when I saw a crescent moon floating just above the Skypark of the building. Having brought along my Nikon 1 V1 and no tripod, I set the ISO to 1600 and snapped a couple of shots and it turned up pretty decently. It’s later when I checked a… Continue reading Moonset Over Marina Bay Sands
Moon Passing Jupiter
I saw the half moon in the very clear sky tonight and decided to take a photo of it. Using a Nikon FT-1 adaptor, I mounted my Nikkor AF 80-200mm f/2.8D ED-IF to my Nikon 1 V1 to get as much magnification as possible. This combination gives an effective focal length of 540mm, which actually… Continue reading Moon Passing Jupiter
Tokyo From Above
Being a metropolitan city, Tokyo has many skyscrapers, a few of which provides tourists access to an observation deck where they can take in the city view from a high vantage point. I’ve always loved going up tall buildings and other structures when I get the chance to, as I loved viewing a place from high… Continue reading Tokyo From Above

Not wanting to miss the shot, I quickly set up… Continue reading Moonset Over the Esplanade
To the Skies
So I was at the base of the Tokyo Tower, looking for different angles to shoot the tower from. While walking and looking around, the criss-cross pattern of the staircase on the outside caught my attention. The light was also falling beautifully on it, giving it a nice reddish glow. I took a shot, but… Continue reading To the Skies
Autumn In Japan
I wanted a short break last year and decided to go to Tokyo with my friend Clarence. After accounting for each other’s schedules, I was rather happy to know that the final date we settled on is just about right for see the fall colours in Japan. So, other than fulfilling my wish to see… Continue reading Autumn In Japan
A (Ladies’) Night At the Races
Philip, a friend and ex-colleague who worked at the Singapore Turf Club texted me one evening asking me if I knew anyone who’s female and is a blogger/prolific in the social networks. The only one whom I can think of at that time was another friend, Belinda, who provided me many opportunities to shoot at events… Continue reading A (Ladies’) Night At the Races
2012 – Year In Photos
As we come to the end of year 2012, I thought I’d put up some of my favourite shots which I’ve taken in 2012. I did a similar post last year, and so I shall continue with the spirt of things. 🙂 The year started off with a rather bland and overcast day when I… Continue reading 2012 – Year In Photos
