I woke up this morning, watched Judging Amy (I love this series btw) on Hallmark Channel, then got to work on my macro shots. I looked high and low for my unsuspecting subjects. I even grabbed a couple of my wife’s shoes, took a couple of shots and found them to be too dirty stained [...]
Came across this amazing collection of photographs. Some of the images are truly stunning and extremely interesting. Of course, some of the images had been touched up by some excellent Photoshop skills.
Having an idea of how difficult it is to take pictures like these makes me appreciate the brilliant efforts put in by the photographers. [...]
Due to some obscure reason (don’t ask!), I had to get a money order from Singapore Post. It is no big deal really. I did it a couple of times, maybe 20 years back when I did not have a cheque book, a credit card nor a NETS card. I think back then I made [...]

“Great art is simple. My universe is great art, [...]
What’s this? Did I just made a bullet-speed trip to Africa and back? Of course not, but the pictures do look like they could have been shot at some exotic location, don’t they? Ok… maybe with the help of a little imagination.
Truth is, I took these from this patch of empty grassland right beside Ang [...]
There are certain schools of thought that say if you work hard enough, you can make a difference and change your future.
