Family Time

Sometimes we don’t have to plan too much to have family bonding. Family time should be more spontaneous.

The key is when we think of our family, don’t let the thought linger and stay just in your mind. Do something about it.

A walk along the park to enjoy the sunset.

Seriously, with all the stress all around us, the happiest moment for a parent would be to see my child totally enjoying the simple time of fun. I will never trade anything for this.

Thanking God for the family He has given me.

Side note. Woodlands Waterfront really has a nice view during evening times.

A simple post to document my fatherhood journey.

Osaka Autumn Trip - Red Leaves

This will be the final post for my maiden solo trip. Slightly more than 2 months after this trip, I will occasionally look back and recall the amazing experience. Truly like the Chinese proverbs, 读万卷书不如行万里路 (traveling is better than just reading), this Oscar trip will always stay as a special period in my life.

Besides the purpose of experiencing a solo trip, the other main purpose to visit Oscar at that period was for the Red Leaves/ Autumn Leaves. Staying in a ‘one-season’ country like Singapore, to experience Autumn is a luxury. And having done my homework, the most visited place in Oscar for the autumn leaves is Osaka Castle, and the best nature venue to witness the beautiful season has to be Minoo Park, a forested valley on the outskirts of Osaka.

So this is what I saw. Enjoy.

So happy to be able to share my travels with all of you. Hope you have a good time reading or just scrolling through the photos.

Ubin Photography

Whenever we thought of nature photography in Singapore, the best place is Pulau Ubin. So when one of our friends started to pick up photography, we brought him there. It really doesn’t matter what camera are you using. As long as it can take photos, we are good to go.

For me, it was my trusted Nikon D90 and the 50mm lens.

Ubin gives us the unique view of a kampong and life that is probably a few decades back compared to main land Singapore. A certain laid-back lifestyle that is so captivating especially so for city dwellers like us.

Even the animals are so relaxed and chill when we approach them, no fear but just friendly.

Tried to take a few marco shots with my 50mm but this is probably the best I can get. Still good.

The black and white photos didn’t turn out that well. Maybe I will come back again with my film camera and a few rolls of B&W films.

A great time with friends and sharing shooting fun.

Turned paparazzi on my wife. I am so blessed to have a partner that shares the same love for photography.

Parting shot.
