40th anniversary of OM system: Offenbach, Germany

Our next stop: Offenbach, Germany. Not a recommended place for tourist but it is the place in Germany that I'm most familiar with.

The Marktplatz

On a foggy morning, here is the bus stop at Offenbach Ost station

A bit of modern scene

Lastly, sunny afternoon when I came back to the apartment from work. It was not a sunny blue sky though :)

2011 was a last time I visited Offenbach. A simple city but an important part of my memory...

"In Transit” - The intertwined landscape of Singapore

In the past 6 months, I tried to bring my camera around as often as possible to complete my project "In Transit", which is to mark my 10-th year of staying in Singapore. In such a small island, nature scenes have been combined with the modern cityscape to maintain the balance. There is no magnificent mountains, lakes or long beaches as ones often admire, but rather the intertwined land-scape of Singapore and the different races makes it so intrigued.

The photos included in the project tried to capture Singapore's landscape, to that extent.

Here are some highlights:

Project link is here. As it is still an ongoing project, I would appreciate very much your constructive comments and suggestions. Thank you! :)

Family portraits. Again.

I planned to write a post on some "existential questions" about photographs, but then decide not to, as you guys are probably bored with that topic already. Anyway, I saw the scenes of people laughing when looking back at their family photo album in the movie. It got me thinking - we don't do that often anymore, do we? Maybe because we have so many photos these days that make it hard to select, to print and keep in an album. Maybe a life of a photograph ends when it is posted on Facebook and will be forgotten completely in a year, or just a week.

These photos of my family were taken in only 30', just before I was leaving to the airport, back to Singapore. Strangely enough, it is the only time where I can have everyone gathered and a good lighting in the morning to shoot with.   

And they make me smile, happily.
