One Morning in Jaipur

I shot these in front of our hotel in Jaipur, Rajashtan, in the early morning of our second day there. People started their day by having tea, setting up their roadside fruit stalls, sweeping the street, etc. under a cool October morning weather.

All photos taken with Leica M9 and Zeiss Planar 50mm ZM f/2. The first few were taken by shooting into the rising sun. Enjoy!MORE +

White Shadow

I first saw the scene, which was the big poster with images of people walking from across the street of Elizabeth Street in Brisbane last week. I just needed one more element before I clicked the shutter button, hence I waited for few minutes before the guy in black came into the picture, walking. Do you see his “white shadow” now?   :) MORE +

A Slice of Memory of the Singapore – Malaysia Railway Track

I walked along the old Singapore – Malaysia railway track, the section between Bukit Timah Station to Ghim Moh last weekend before it’s completely closed for public. Hopefully they will consider it to be opened for public. For photographers like me, the place would be a nice setting for an outdoor family photography session. Too bad it won’t be accessible anymore.MORE +

Chinese Chess

I love shooting the people playing Chinese chess at Kreta Ayer market in Chinatown. These two were shot last weekend when I made a quick trip there. Shot with Leica M9 and Zeiss Planar 50mm ZM f/2 lens. MORE +

Which one is healthier?

Shooting in Chinatown is super fun. Lots of cool subjects to shoot. Just look around, see and be prepared to shoot. I was watching people playing the Chinese chess at Kreta Ayer market when I saw this. I first  saw the man with the pipe and then suddenly the second man came into the frame with his banana. He actually had a bag of them with him. The first thing that came to my mind when I was shooting the images was the title of the blog entry I would write for this. I would write “Which one is healthier?”.MORE +
