Kuala Lumpur - Lenscape

- July 16, 2016

Like many fast growing metropolitan areas, Kuala Lumpur has also been experiencing rapid changes due to vast constructions and development. It has lead to some loss of historic image and perhaps an identity crisis. A casual stroll through the city took me to the old railway station and the iconic Petronas Twin Towers, contrasting significance of what was once a symbol of the city, the unique architecture of the railway station, but now dwarfed by the majestic and futuristic twin towers. A well preserved urban heritage is important as it maintains the identity of the nation and the image of the city besides contributing to tourism. “What is it about old places that give them this unique capacity to ‘convey, embody, or stimulate a relation or reaction’ to history? … [P]eople feel the excitement of experiencing the place where something actually happened, from the shimmering watery fortress of Fort Sumter where the Civil War started, to the quiet rooms of Emily Dick...

Shadow Dancing

- December 31, 2015

It was a typical harsh tropical mid afternoon, I had some time to spare in between errands and the park was within my sight. So I grabbed the OMD EM-10, alighted from my car and stormed the park. And for the first time, put my "free" 40-150mm F4/5.6 lens to the test. I'm not sure if the park sweepers there are used to seeing a lone ranger with a camera at this time of the day, but they sure did give me some "interesting" glances. No, I did not take their portraits, haha. Chasing harsh light is not an easy situation to tackle. Basically I'm using contrast and looking for patterns or shadows created by the light. round and round stone trooper waves of steel now, which is the right way? "tree" on the greens in between... 2015, you did me well my friend. Until next year ...

The Exquisite Pink Lotus

- June 12, 2016

In many spiritual traditions, the lotus is perhaps one of the most celebrated flowers that there is. It is a powerful image and is considered a sacred flower. I am drawn to the lotus flower not only for their beauty but also for their symbolism. “The lotus is the most beautiful flower, whose petals open one by one. But it will only grow in the mud. In order to grow and gain wisdom, first you must have the mud — the obstacles of life and its suffering. … The mud speaks of the common ground that humans share, no matter what our stations in life. … Whether we have it all or we have nothing, we are all faced with the same obstacles: sadness, loss, illness, dying and death. If we are to strive as human beings to gain more wisdom, more kindness and more compassion, we must have the intention to grow as a lotus and open each petal one by one. ” ~ Goldie Hawn Bud symbolises potential. We are just like buds, some are ready and eager to feel the sunshine o...
