Wall Of Flower

How I wish I can build a wall of flower all around me.
To separate myself from you
To just listen only to myself
or at least a song in my head.

Took this photo five years ago. A few weeks after I bought my very first camera.

Ruins of St. Paul's, Macau

At first glance, the city seems deserted. Less cars, less public transportation, even lesser pedestrians. I wasn't sure if it's a local public holiday there, so I keep looking for human activity from where I sit in the bus.

The city itself is a mixture of modern architecture and Portuguese influence. One moment you'll see huge casino buildings with its big flashy signs and glittering lights and next you are presented with charming Portuguese styled buildings. I sat at the frontmost seat in the bus next to the driver so I heard her explaining that the government offices there are historical buildings and pink in colour.

Then she halted the bus. Dropped everyone off and instructed where we should head to: the Ruins of St. Paul's.

The more we walked, the thicker the crowd is. So many people that we have to squeeze our way through. Now I can see where everyone is... there seems to be an inner part of the city where everywhere is connected. No wonder there's not much people near the highway. And no, they don't have subways there.

The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

One guy & three lenses

"Hey, Jun!" He turned around the moment he heard his name.  

Snap. Snap. Snap! 

"Whoa, guys! Easy there, I'm getting dizzy with all those flashes in my eyes." Jun squinted, covering his eyes playfully with an exaggerating manner.

"There's no flash, silly!" Yani interjected, "you're the only one without a camera here, it's natural that you'll be the subject" 

"I'm a guy who values efficiency. I hate carrying excess baggage so if I want to take pictures..." he fished his pocket for his iPhone, a look of confidence pasted on his face, "I use this."

As if on cue, everyone feigned barfing sounds in response.

Lovely

Meow!

Photo was taken with my trusty old 8 MP camera phone, no filter. This kitten actually belongs to someone else. There were 5 kittens and they were all super cute (of course!) How can you not love or pity something as cute as this? I really can't understand why people abuse animals. Stop animal abuse!

35mm

This is the very first post in this blog. I'm going to share a a wedding photo taken by my zenith-E. Zenith-E is a Russian camera brand early 50's. It is a 35mm SLR.
