  • Fish and Bread in the Andaman Sea

    In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge, “Gathering.” This photo captures a school of fish competing for the piece of bread. It was a ‘wow’ moment for me as I came face-to-face with the fish. It was the first time I could photograph wild fish in their natural habitat as I bought a waterproof…

  • The Unwanted Often Flock Together

    In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “Gathering.” Krista spoke a lot about gatherings as something happy and enjoyable. However, gatherings often happen in times of adversity, such as during a funeral, escaping from war, and discussing a political issue. I will push the limits of what gathering onto inanimate objects. The unwanted often…

  • SL-WEEK 22 : Transparency

    In response to Sylvain LANDRY, SL-Week 22: Transparency. Not much beats enjoying wine from a crystal glass in a pool. Who would have thought that the geometry of the wine glass could be stable enough for it to balance perfectly in water? I also enjoy gazing through the water waves and noting how different square…

  • Travel Theme: Mellow – Water Monitor Lizard at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve, Singapore

    In response to Where’s my backpack? Travel Theme: Mellow. On a sunny afternoon, the water monitor lizard was lazing around. All four of its legs sprawled over the terrain, almost saying, “I am going slowly, there is nothing on the agenda today.” Relaxing in the calm little patch looks wonderful! Have you seen a large…

  • Cee’s Odd Ball Challenge: 2015 Week 32 – Crayons in a restaurant?

    In response to Cee’s Odd Ball Challenge: 2015 Week 32. Why are there crayons in a restaurant? The crayons are obviously for customers to draw and colour because there is a piece of paper provided to every customer. Some of the drawings are being displayed on the walls. Still, I could not help wondering why there…

  • Cee’s Which Way Challenge: 2015 week #32 – Cavenagh Bridge, Singapore

    In response to Cee’s Photography Which Way Challenge tag. Today, let us take a walk across Cavenagh Bridge, the oldest bridge over the Singapore River. The Cavenagh Bridge charms city-dwellers with its British colonial architecture nestled amongst modern high-rise buildings. I hold this bridge in a particular place in my heart because I had to cross it…

    In response to Sunday Stills, the next challenge: Clouds in Black and White. Do you enjoy watching the clouds? If no, why not? If yes, what is your favourite type of clouds? Enjoy! [Photo: Taken at Boracay, The Phillippines, 2013.]

  • Travel Theme: Grey – Mudskipper at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve, Singapore

    In response to Where’s my backpack? Travel Theme: Grey. Like Ailsa, I am not fond of grey too. But unlike her, I cannot find many photos in grey. I have this shot of a mudskipper, though. This photo is one of only a few grey pictures that I have in my stash of photographs. The…

  • Flower of the Day – August 10, 2015 – Bamboo Orchid | cocoaevenings

    I had unwittingly taken a week-long break from posting Flower of the Day. I must have had subconsciously counted down to the long weekend over here. Today is the last day of the long weekend, so I will celebrate it with an orchid, the Bamboo Orchid. I briefly mentioned that orchids are arguably my favourite…

  • SL-Week 5: Lights – With volume, dense and palpable

    In response to Sylvain LANDRY, SL-Week 5: Light. I desperately wanted to hug that beam of light (photo below) to my chest but could not because there was a fence in front of me (not in photo). The fence had been built to prevent people like me from moving too close to the light and…
