Travel and Photography
As today is ANZAC Day in Australia, I thought I’d share this photo I took earlier this year. I happened to be showing a friend the Gold Coast when I came across this elderly gentleman sitting next to this monument. I was glad to have my camera with me. Lest we forget.
I thought I’d do something a bit different with this post and not only share a photo, but also show you the original image before I did any post processing on it. This was taken not far from Tai Po (or maybe this was still Tai Po?) in Hong Kong. A couple of my friends…
I don’t understand how people can fish basically anywhere there’s water in Hong Kong. The water in some places looks disgusting, and that includes here at Victoria Harbour due to all the shipping activity. And I don’t think this is catch and release either. Perhaps some people prefer their fish with extra taste?
Causeway Bay was the first place I set foot outside of the subway network. After an 8 hour flight from Brisbane, I arrived at Causeway Bay at 11:30pm, and thinking everything would be close by now, I was really surprised when I saw so many people, lots of bright neon lights, and non-stop traffic.

One of the cool features of The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands shopping centre in Singapore was this canal replica running through the middle of the shopping centre. You could even ride on the boats! I believe the design of this shopping centre is one of the most stunning I’ve seen. In case you missed…
Kowloon Tong in Hong Kong is supposedly known as the city’s second most expensive area to live in, after Central. And this is where my exchange university, CityU, is located. The university dorms are located up the hill from the campus, and this is the view I had from my hall. Sometimes I used to look out…
One night in Hong Kong I headed to Tsim Sha Tsui for some photography, and as I walked around the Hong Kong Cultural Centre, I noticed this photographer. This photo kind of represents the environment and mood in which many photographers work in; solitude. It’s how I photograph actually. For one, I don’t like to…
