A Photo A Day: #002

02/02/2013: Pigeons in the morning

Woke up at 2 in the morning and just could not get back to sleep. Worked a little bit, that's the bad of working from home---poor discipline. Since I bought the NEX-6 about a week before, decided to take it for a spin in Little India. Reach the Tekka Market before the sky started to brighten up. A wonderful morning with little traffic and people. Just birds and the odd soul or two.

A Photo A Day: #001

05/02/2013: View from the kitchen window

It's been raining almost every day since December. It can get hot on some Lunar New Year months, but this year, it has been raining the week before the New Year starts. Since, water signifies 'wealth', I take it as a good sign. Hey, it's best to be optimistic no? Better to be a happy fool in my book.

A Photo A Day

I'm a lazy person. Every time something starts to resemble work, I bail. That explains why this is my millionth blog in 10 years. Hey, doesn't mean I don't try.

Alright, the idea is simple. Take a picture everyday, till I drop dead with the camera in my hands. Now, that's a tall order for any conscientious and prolific amateur/professional photographer---like scaling Mount Everest for a bummer like me. It does not mean I will post everyday. Making it out to be too much of a chore will only cause me to abandon this mighty endeavor. I will however, attempt to take a picture a day; be it my lunch, flowers, vase at home or brick walls... maybe not, but an image that means something to me; my streets, my home, etc.

In short, "Take a picture a day, but post/blog whenever I feel like."

Some Random Little India Shots

Different cultures smell differently. A friend mentioned that she never liked Little India because of the smell. It sounded somewhat racist at that time, after smelling durians while passing by Geylang, I realised that she meant nothing with that comment---it's just personal preference. For me, I love the place. It has a life that is so out of the ordinary compared to the regular Singapore. If you want to know how Indians cross the road, this is the best place to experience it.

Not really a cohesive series. Some random shots:
