Rain

Usually people would just stay at home or keep the camera in the bag when it is raining but I once heard from a friend saying "You can only take rainy photos when there is a rain." Back in my home town, I'm pretty sure a lot of people are reluctant to let their cameras get caught in the rain due to the humid weather which brings a possibility of fungus growing in lenses. I have shot in the rain on many occasions be it light drizzle or down pour. However recently I became reluctant because I would rather be lazy and enjoy the weather by sleeping. Moreover rain doesn't happen a lot in Melbourne.

I was motivated to shoot in the rain again when I see photographs from Danny Santos so I picked up the camera and get in the rain again.

Give it a try, who knows you could surprised yourself  =)


My semester is resuming tomorrow so I'll be busy again...

The Joy of Street Photography

Is that you get to see something simple yet interesting.

When I stepped out of the house with my camera, I wouldn't have imagine this photo in my head.
Street Photography - it surprises you!


I'll be busy with my semester exams in the beginning of June so wouldn't be updating much on my blog. As always, thanks for reading.

Keepers of the day.

Went down to the heart of Melbourne on the weekend along with my camera on the quest of street photography!

Been practicing street photography for about three years and the chances of capturing an image that I'm proud to print on paper and present to people is very very dim. What kind of criteria that a street photo can make me proud? Honestly, I don't know how to describe it. It's the kind of image where I look at it and it gave me the feeling of "Yeah this is the one". You know, when you meet a wonderful cute girl who is able to give the sparks inside you without even trying? Thats how it is.

So these are the two keepers of the day

I'm not gonna say these two images are gonna win me any awards, but I'm loving them =)
