Another picture from my trip to the UK last September from Lakeside, Windermere… I was taking pictures of seagulls swooping over the wooden pier in the area when I spotted this boat carrying its brightly-dressed rower. The colour was just what I was looking for in what would have been a relatively dull shot otherwise 😛
One of my much earlier shots (taken at this location at Changi Airport) was featured in a book project (titled To Singapore With Love) commemorating the 40th National Day of Singapore in 2005… Visiting the same location recently (minus the bulky photographic equipment I was carrying previously), I had a chance to repeat the shot but with a totally different feel this time. I like the freedom the G10 allowed me to capture the shot handheld without a tripod 🙂
One of the very first pictures I took for 2009… from the comfort of my dining room balcony 🙂
Returning home from my first day of work in 2009, I came across this dramatic cloudscape over the Singapore city skyline. A quick rush for my camera and tripod, and I was shooting away. This particular shot has been post-processed in Lightroom. I thought that the monochromatic treatment brought out the contrasts of light and shadow much more effectively than if the shot had been processed in colour.
