A Day in School



The rusty old lockers with a slight tinge of colour.
Good enough to brighten up my day. =)

Well, I better cherish the present now! You guys should do the same!Haahaa.

Tennis Novice Open

Once again, I've shot photos of TENNIS!=)
Braving the storm, I brought my camera out into the courts. I hope my old buddy won't die just like that. (There was a slight drizzle then it stopped.)Haha. Anyway, here are the shots.=)



Good thing I have some experience in shooting tennis now. The moment I stepped onto the courts, I up my ISO to 800. Now, at least I can see the tennis ball in the photo and the ball is ROUND!(some are still slightly deformed)


I also learnt to gauge when to press the shutter. As mentioned before, a tennis ball is the fastest ball in photography. Now when I see the player throw the ball in the air, I wait for about 2 seconds, then press the shutter!And, wah-la! I got the shot of the player serving AND the ball!


And again, I was lucky to get a shot like this, just like the time I shot the NUS tennis competition (featured in an older post).


The last time I shot doubles, I shoot them separately. This time, muahahahahaa!!I clever liao! I have two person in the photo!!! Now people will know that this is a doubles match! To be more precise, a MIXED double match!=p


Players each have their own character and habits. When you noticed that this particular player has the habit to make a certain move, you are in luck! This gives you more time/chances to take a perfect shot of that move/habit. Especially for a newbie like muah!=)
I was quite lucky to get this shot, because his eyes aren't covered by the racket!!Lucky~

Such a great day! Tennis daisuki~

Rays of hope



Have anyone asked you to look at a photo and guess if the photo was a sunrise or a sunset? If you were to choose sunset, you are said to be rather passive. But I beg to differ. To me, the sun is seen as hope. Regardless it being a sunrise or a sunset, it shows Hope.

So, what do you see? A sunrise? A sunset? Or just plainly Hope?

Japanese Cemetry

Went to the Japanes Cemetry today. Peaceful place, just like the Kranji War Memorial. Only that the tombstones are not that well taken care off.

The first thing that come to my mind when I think of a cemetry would be the tombstones. Of course, I took some shots of the tomstones, but there are many other small things there too. (Just like the flowers at Kranji War Memorial)

Every time I took a photo of a tombstone, I would bow 90 degrees. Stupid, I konw. But at least I feel like I'm being respectful to them.


I spent quite some time taking this photo. The drop of water took like forever to drip! But the wait was fruitful cause I got my shot.=)


Hmm..no idea why I shot this, but I like it=)


Spent a long time manual focusing this one.Haha.


I finally got this shot that I always "see" when I sit the cirle line.Yeah!Dream come true!=)


P.S: All photos are shot with a 50mm f 1.8!
