There will be occasions when you have to take a picture under the harsh afternoon sun. For instance, when you are on a tour and the schedule just does not permit a revisit to a place under better lighting conditions. In such cases, your photos may just turn out with overblown skies, with loss of [...]
Creation of jaw-dropping images via HDR techniques has been taking the internet by storm. If you look at some of the photographs posted in Flickr, you will discover the reasons why. Some of the photos have so much clarity and vibrancy, you can almost touch it! Some are overly done, much like an overcooked half-boiled [...]
Every time you speed across Benjamin Sheares Bridge, you should be able to see this gigantic ferris wheel called the Singapore Flyer. At 165 metres tall, it is currently the tallest ferris wheel in the world. Personally I have not experienced what it is like inside one of the capsules, and today marks the first [...]

Warden and I are not big on alcohol, be it wine, hard liquor or liquored coffee. But for some reason, there is a bunch of alcohol sitting in one of our storage units. Some of which I am not even sure are still consumable. For instance, we have 2 bottles of Hoegaarden sitting in the [...]
As I had already seen a preview of the National Day fireworks on my last night photography outing with my buddy Wilfrid, I did not feel the need to see it again. Captain Warden, who happens to be none other than my father-in-law, suggested having a family dinner at ONE°15 Marina Club, which is nested [...]
Wood Street is usually a quiet place as the clock moves closer to midnight. But not this night. There was an unexplainable electrifying feel in the air, never felt before this part of town. All of a sudden the air density dropped, as if the oxygen was being sucked out of Mother Earth. A strong [...]
