Jaunts
Received a harangue from kittystar at winebar on friday night for dare visiting clubsnap.
I was trying to explain that my current macro interest was to teach myself the technical aspects of photography so that as a style (if any) does develop, it can do so with a foundation instead of in tandem.
Ok, that made more sense with a vodka ribena in hand. And I cannot beat her eye for great composition and mood creation.
Like how I replied to an anonymous (haha, you know who you are) commentator some time ago, I merely depressed the shutter-release when things were in focus. Everybody with the correct equipment can capture that. see here.
So after a hearty breakfast with auntie, went around the same place I was last week.
Not a very good start but, I still like how this pic turned out.

Then saw this reflection off the polished tiles of a building. The heavy line down from upper right to the middle is on the building itself. I don't photoshop. Yet.
This picture started me on a "Twins" search today. Didn't materialise of course.
Don't you think there is a missing part in this picture? It's almost symmetrical and asymmetrical at the same time.
I decided to focus on just the sheltered walkway. Looks like a leave.
I thought this was interesting as well. For two reasons. It is not typical for the lock to be above the handle right? And also, it's very obvious which knob is used more often.
Details on a baroque-esque tile. Last "Twins' photo. No, no Gillian Chung.
Lollipop in the city. And this picture attracted the attention of the security guards ("Oh, you not taking picture of our building? Ok, ok, you can take. Take." - whatever....)
I like this shot, kinda. So very pretentious. Yay-ness.
Wowee Zowee! Word play even while keeping a keen eye out for composition. "In Groom"
Thumbnails of tiles.

As promised, I'm commenting. Wat an obliging fan I am! :-P Altho a "known anonymous" seems like an oxymoron. Should I let slip my real identity here? *grin*
Nice photos once again! Keep them coming! :)
ok mark, got you on my bloglines.
anonymous: as Joe Cocker might put it, "Baby, you can leave your hat on"
i love clubsnap for all the right reasons. Muacks!
The high priestess has spoken!
blauereiter: I think we will both agree that _some_ of the people leaving comments on clubsnap sometimes resemble spammers and flamers. Oddly, when it comes to portraiture, they seemed more interested in the girl's come-hither looks than anything else.
I like clubsnap - for all intents and purposes of which are my own.
I recommend nikonians.org, pretty resourceful forums there. kenrockwell.com is also a quite useful sometimes, of course you don't have to agree to what the guy says.
