  • One Free Thing To Do Every Christmas

    I have watched Christmas lights and decorations every year since I learned of their existence some two decades ago. I have indeed enamoured for decorations beneath the Christmas trees this year. The photo below shows a gorgeous Ferrero-Rocher-like set-up under the tree at Millenia Walk. And the picture below shows the actual Christmas tree. I…

  • Zig Zag Train Wreck From Aboard The Indian Pacific

    In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “Oops!” I was looking forward to enter the Blue Mountains by rail on the Indian Pacific of the Great Southern Rail. I paste my face on the window pane with my eyes peeled. At the same time, I supported my camera against the window with my little…

  • 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 25: Macro – Tea at Antoinette

    In response to Sylvain LANDRY, SL-Week 25: Macro. Beautiful food will bring a curious hungry person closer. Let the yolk flow! Perfectly poached eggs top with shimmering hollandaise sauce is mouth-watering anytime. Complete the meal with over-the-top Antoinette (earl grey tea) cake, macarons, and tea from a European style tea set. Sweet macarons make a…

  • SL-WEEK 24: Machines – The Large Hadron Collider

    In response to Sylvain LANDRY, SL-Week 24: Machines. Landry asked for machines that could be unbelievable and frightening. I think that would be The Large Hadron Collider. I saw The Eye of Sauron when I faced this machine. I stood rooted to the spot in the museum trying to grapple with the number of electrical…

  • Share Your World – 2015 Week #49

    In response to Cee’s Photography, Share Your World tag. What would be your ideal birthday present, and why? Going out with my family/loved ones/friends. The perfect birthday gift is to be happy. When I was young, I went out with my family every weekend, so I associate spending a day out with meaningful people as…

  • SL-WEEK 23: Narrow – Travel

    In response to Sylvain LANDRY, SL-Week 23: Narrow. I am most impressed with the way Landry injects meaning to the word “narrow” with the interpretation, “It must feel the weight.” I have never thought of “narrow” as a feeling before. Inspired by Landry’s unique and insightful perspective of “narrow,” I ransacked my stash of photographs…

  • The Gecko Saw Me

    In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “Eye Spy.” I must have been terribly close to the gecko because the gecko responded to my presence. Look at that eye! It was checking me out from head to toe. I must have been terribly brave because I held my ground and got more than…

  • 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…

  • 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…
