B&W Pasir Ris Fishing Park

Fishing has been a special hobby in my life. Though I have stopped fishing for a long while, but it will always remind me of the times my dad and I spent hours in the rain waiting for the fish to be hooked. Sharing a cup of hot coffee from the thermal flask, these were memories that will stay etched in my mind forever.

Pasis Ris Fishing Park has been one of those late night outings I experienced in the past. Till now, the fishing pond is still in business, some things just never change, and it’s for the better.

 

The action of changing your bait, or just reeling in the line for a catch, this is nostalgic.

 

The chairs so commonly seen in places like this.

Uncle waiting patiently for the catch. This is probably one reason why I like fishing. The waiting period is so therapeutic especially in a society that is so busy everyday.

I was walking round the pond and suddenly the action was focused on this uncle who had a big catch. Exciting!

 

A generational hobby. Nice!

Between friends, a time to share and fellowship.

Cat & Fish

I was talking a walk in Pasir Ris one afternoon with my camera and wasn’t expecting to shoot anything since I thought it was just a quiet neighbourhood.

But the fun thing about photography is not knowing what you will find.

I have never develop any special liking to cats, but in terms of photographing, cats are so more cooperative compared to dogs. With my 50mm, I had to move closer on 3 counts to finally get the shots I have. But the cute little kitten was so clam and didn’t move at all.

From my in-law’s place, it’s a 10mins walk to the fishing park.

Contrasting to the lively cat, here are some photos of what you will find at a fishing pond. Dead fish baits. Even looking at the photo now, I can still smell the horrible fishy smell. Yucks!

Not going to leave you with some gross fish photos. Back to a cute cat instead. Maybe I will keep a cat. Just maybe…
