In A World Of Their Own

I was looking through some old pictures that I took in the earlier part of the year and came across this photo that I took during a Hari Raya Haji prayer session held at the Yio Chu Kang Stadium in Singapore in February.

The Malay children are always interesting to watch during such prayer sessions — many entertain themselves while the adults are busy deep in prayer. Here are two of them seemingly in a world of their own while the rest of the adults are engrossed with prayer. Selective masking and processing has been performed in Photoshop to bring attention to the two children.

Twilight By The Boardwalk

This shot of the Changi Beach Boardwalk by the evening twilight was taken when I visited the place in June earlier this year…

The skies were initially dull and colourless being a gloomy day. I was lucky when the colours of the sun broke through just right before sunset, lighting up the wispy clouds and at the same time, providing a nice, warm and orange glow in contrast to the silhouette of the boardwalk.
