Monochrome Madness #05: Decay
This week I saw the theme/challenge selected was “decay” and was meant to showcase things that are old, abandoned or dilapidated. It had me stumped. Usually, don’t we all only save the things that are pretty and sparkly? I searched through my past photos and found some which I thought best matched the theme. Hope…

Lens-Artists: People Here, There & Everywhere (Part 2)
Continuing from the photo challenge last weekend, here are some more people related photos I previously took and liked. Smiling Man: Sometimes I feel that as people grow older, a genuine smile becomes as rare as gold. Capturing a natural smile from a stranger on the road felt special for me. A Taste of my…

Lens-Artists: People Here, There & Everywhere
Hi, glad to participate in this challenge too. Although my blog is separated into 3 distinct topics of which candid/street photography is one of them, but I must admit, it is the most difficult for a shy person like me to do. Looking back at the photos along the years, here are some photos that…

Wildlife from an Urbanite’s View
For a person living in a metropolis, any animal other than a dog/cat/pigeon is kind of rare. So end up, we might end up taking a lot more photos of wildlife whenever we finally get a chance encounter. To be fair, some of these are not technically wildlife… but we take what we get. 🤣…

Street Photography?
What is Street Photography? Honestly I am terrible at trying to take photos of strangers in trying to capture any candid moments. Do you guys have any good examples or hints at how to do it well without feeling awkward? Attached some photos I took many years ago on the streets of Tokyo, Japan (東京、日本).…

Looking back at Baby Photos
Young children and babies are the cutest subjects to photograph if done properly (and with permission of course). Here was one of my first photo accepted by iStock last time when I joined. Was the best use of time when being asked to watch the baby while the SO shops, don’t you think? 😄 Today…

Attempt to Venture into Shutterstock
Today I made my first attempt to apply for Shutterstock. Submitted the first 10 photos and waiting for the result. Below is a collage of the 10 photos I submitted: In truth, even if I get approved for Shutterstock as well, its not likely that I’ll be raking in the money at my rate of only producing…
