For the Star Wars fans amongst you (and in myself), no apologies for the title as the figures not only reminded me of literal sky-walkers but also the giant trees on Endor from Return of the Jedi 😛 This picture was taken from our first foray into Gardens by the Bay, Singapore’s newest attraction. The eleven iconic “Supertrees” dominated most of the pictures I took in my short three-hour visit to the Gardens. Repeat visits are definitely on the cards…
Taken in Langham Place Shopping Mall in Mongkok, Hong Kong… One of my favourite angles for photography in crowded places is to adopt a top-down, bird’s-eye view. This angle not only gives an unusual perspective of things but also helps to de-clutter the background. Unpredictable crowd behaviour and a slow shutter speed add to the ingredients of an interesting, unconventional shot!
Durdle Door on the Dorset Coast was a place that I wanted to photograph before I left the UK for home. I wasn’t too hopeful about the weather then as strong winds, rain and floods along the south coast of the UK made travel tricky. Thankfully, the weather cleared up when we finally arrived at Durdle Door. Dad has a similar version of this shot with a different colour balance due to our different cameras and processing.
