This portfolio showcases the abundance of such opportunities from a plethora of subjects including flora in their natural habitat, Man and his architectural creations, and the candid interaction of people with one another as well as with their environment. By exploring a variety of lighting situations and interesting visual angles, together with the observation of colours, patterns, arrangements and candid human behaviour, the pictures serve to illustrate that expression through visual art is not simply confined to artists, designers, painters and the like, but is also readily available to those who actively seek it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">TAN<\/span>&nbsp;Eng Loy, ARPS<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>The Portfolio<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"1170\" data-carousel-extra='null' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 1170px; height: 265px;\" data-original-width=\"1170\" data-original-height=\"265\" > <div class=\"gallery-group images-1\" style=\"width: 207px; height: 265px;\" data-original-width=\"207\" data-original-height=\"265\" > <div class=\"tiled-gallery-item tiled-gallery-item-small\" itemprop=\"associatedMedia\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.elcreations.org\/engloy\/photoblog\/eng-loys-arps-portfolio\/attachment\/04\/\" border=\"0\" itemprop=\"url\"> <meta itemprop=\"width\" content=\"203\"> <meta itemprop=\"height\" content=\"261\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" data-attachment-id=\"3071\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.elcreations.org\/engloy\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/04.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"406,523\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;geo_coordinates&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;lens&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Emeralds of Spring\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Emeralds of Spring was taken in 2003 at the Botanical Gardens, Singapore.

To emphasize the layout of the stallholder and her customers further, I have applied selective masking and desaturation to the rest of the peripheral elements of the shot.&lt;\/p&gt; \" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.elcreations.org\/engloy\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/13.jpg?fit=680%2C524&#038;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.elcreations.org\/engloy\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/13.jpg?fit=680%2C524&#038;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.elcreations.org\/engloy\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/13.jpg?w=581&#038;h=448&#038;ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.elcreations.org\/engloy\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/13.jpg?w=680&amp;ssl=1 680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.elcreations.org\/engloy\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/13.jpg?resize=117%2C90&amp;ssl=1 117w\" width=\"581\" height=\"448\" loading=\"lazy\" data-original-width=\"581\" data-original-height=\"448\" itemprop=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/image\" title=\"Weighing The Scale\" alt=\"Weighing The Scale\" style=\"width: 581px; height: 448px;\" \/> <\/a> <div class=\"tiled-gallery-caption\" itemprop=\"caption description\"> Weighing The Scale <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <!-- close group --> <div class=\"gallery-group images-1\" style=\"width: 585px; height: 452px;\" data-original-width=\"585\" data-original-height=\"452\" > <div class=\"tiled-gallery-item tiled-gallery-item-large\" itemprop=\"associatedMedia\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.elcreations.org\/engloy\/photoblog\/eng-loys-arps-portfolio\/attachment\/12\/\" border=\"0\" itemprop=\"url\"> <meta itemprop=\"width\" content=\"581\"> <meta itemprop=\"height\" content=\"448\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" data-attachment-id=\"3078\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.elcreations.org\/engloy\/photoblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/12.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"680,524\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;geo_coordinates&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;lens&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Ice-cream Seller of Chinatown\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;This was taken during Chinese New Year in 2003 in Chinatown, Singapore. Photoshop filter effects? No, just the simple use of a tripod and setting the shutter to expose for 2 seconds. The ice-cream man and his customers remained relatively sharp compared to the busy crowd around them which was blurred out because of the long shutter speed.
