It's an enemy because it certainly waits for no one.

In my case, and only much recently - it's also a friend.

2011 was kind of a rough year for me. My cancer came back, and with that comes more treatments to get me cured. I had to go through a lot. So did my family members.

I lost friends. I gained new ones though.

Frankly, I'm just glad that it's a new year. Even if things still aren't quite going my way.

That aside, the subject of this photo is a pocket watch necklace I got in early 2010. I remember that when I bought it, I was with Lun Hui. We attended the same tuition for Physics, and we went to Plaza Pelangi before that - her to get some stationery; I just went along to get some fresh air, since I had classes all morning before that. Somehow, we were nearly late for class! Thankfully, it was only roll call when we got to our seats.

Those were definitely one of the good old days.

I thought about starting this blog to properly start on Project 365 and to train my photography skills. Since I’m already at it, why not make it a photography blog as well? Most of my work is still very amateurish though, so please bear with me!

I’m open to all kinds of photography. I started dabbling in photography due to a strong interest in fashion photography and artistic shoots. Besides that, I like taking photos of flowers, plants, cats, architecture, natural landscapes, and basically anything that intrigues me. I also enjoy taking photos of people; my friends, especially – capturing candid moments are absolutely priceless.

I’m still an amateur photographer. Honestly, there are many terms in photography jargon that I still find hard to understand. I’m up for new knowledge anytime though! (Before you ask, I just want to let my readers know that I do make the effort to experiment with a camera’s settings in taking new shots instead of depending too much on Auto mode.)

I personally don’t watermark my photos; I feel that watermarks ruin the overall look of my photos, hence me uploading them in their original states. I trust whoever that stumbles upon this humble blog of mine to not steal my photographs and instead enjoy my work as they are. If you would really like to use any of my photographs, it would be nice if you could contact me and tell me beforehand; please credit me as well!

Unless stated otherwise, all photographs are:
1. Mine.
2. Not edited.
3. Taken by a Canon Digital IXUS 95 IS.

I’m aiming to try out lomography when I can. I’ll work for my own DSLR and will only get it when I’m more skilled in handling a camera manually.

I would like to be involved in future projects with interesting/meaningful/artistic themes!
