A picture

While scrolling through thousands of images, certain images will stop me. I can’t quite explain why, but I stopped at this, so I decided to post it. Something subtle in those expressions tell me things that I cannot explain in words.

In other news, dive trip coming up although the last trip’s images are still buried under a few thousand other images. Maybe a backpacking (read: hardship) trip to Norway/Iceland. Oh… I sold my Fuji Xpro-1 recently and now I’m looking at something much simpler, namely the Canon G1x mark II. Tried it at Canon’s showroom at Vivocity couple of days back and I quite like the feel of it. Will update if I get it.

Confetti

“Every wedding, you will see this, without fail!”

That’s what David from Livestudios exclaimed when we saw kids picking up confetti on last Sunday’s wedding. I agreed with him and said that confetti attract kids and it’s probably a good sign for ‘早生贵子’. So yes, if you want kids, go with confetti (yes, I made this up, but traditions have to start somewhere:D). This was from another wedding that I shot earlier last month and the patterns on the carpet works nicely on this one.

Moments that work for me

“blog”, “blog”, “blog”. These are reminders that flood my phone almost every other day. If only they made an app where ‘dismiss’ was not an option, this blog would see more posts. But hey, last week was incredibly busy for me and I had alot on my hands and my mind. I wished I could say the same for my bank:D Anyway, I’m back to my blogging routine again.

I was going through alot of my images recently and I found myself attracted to this particular set of images and I picked a few that I really like to share here. Some beautiful and memorable moments from Mervyn and Ruohui’s wedding.

I was supposed to take a quick family portrait for them before the groom arrive. Honestly, I can’t remember what I said, but their reaction tells me, it does not matter.

The look.

Memories of instant gratification.

The reason why Windows rock!:P Only geeks get this.

That smile. Like a leaf.

This kid was all over the place. No, I don’t want the grapes, but thanks for being awesome!

A tender moment between father and daughter (bride’s sister). Emotions tend to run high at a wedding.

Tired shoes.

Conversations

Being an observer and leaving people to do what they want without being part of the conversation. People watching is a real joy.

While I people watch, I form little shapes in my head. In the case, the pair of hands  and the stretched leg as an anchor.

Converging elements

I like the different elements in this image and how they end up converging towards each other.

A hand gesture

Not everyone hug their parents. I don’t. I mean, I would hug Megan Fox, Natalie Portman… and some others, you get my point. Sometimes, a little reassuring hand gesture says everything, even though they might be distracted by things happening around them.

The sun rises in the east

“The sun rises in the East”. That’s what I was taught and accepted it (I mean, who really tracks the sun’s direction). But soon, I found out that when they mention East, it wasn’t the absolute East. While I was growing sunflowers in my parent’s home many years back, I began to notice the direction of the sun because sunflower tend to follow the direction of the sun. I realized that over the span of the year, the sun’s direction can deviate quite a a bit, although it’s still generally in the direction of the East. When it comes to photography, this makes alot of difference if we rely on available light. This is especially so while shooting landscapes, architecture, etc.

While shooting Glenn and Christy’s wedding at St Teresa Church, I noticed this ray of light that fell nicely on both their hands during prayers. As a photographer, this is pretty much one of those things that happens once in a blue moon. Right place, right time, right direction.
