Hi MC

Love your shots, there's something very charming about No. 2 and I absolutely love No. 3

Here are some Tet inspired shots from Hong Kong, taken in a rush due to the hectic schedule...

Cheers

Dear BiTwin, Fellow PNEHs, painters, poets, G Quang and Forum friends,
here are my three entries for something Asian taken a while ago.
The man and the mural (with some Te^t' flavor in it :-)) and My favorite kind of a cheong sam :-) were taken in San Francisco Chinatown.
The hats were from a window display at Saks 5th NYC.
If I have time, will try taking a picture of something Asian at home - no, no, do not worry- not a picture of myself :-)) to submit as my fourth entry :-)
Have a nice relaxing Saturday

my last entry for catching the light

 

 

Hi MC

I love your shot, it's amazing how you caught the sun rays!

Can I also submit 2 last entries

The first one was taken in Hong Kong couple of days ago, where my meetings were held

The second one was taken last night at the Burj Al Arab, the first 7-star hotel in Dubai... it's too ostentatious for my taste, but interesting to visit...

Cheers

my last entry for catching the light

Dear BiTwin, fellow PNEHs, painter, poets, Q. Quang and Forum friends,

I was walking on Madison Avenue a couple of months ago on a beautiful Saturday morning.
 As I stopped to take pictures of the sunlight coming from over the rooftop of the church across the street to shine on the leaves, people stopped on their way to look:-). One gentleman even approached me and said "it is so beautiful! Do you think you can capture it? That would be really cool if you could".
I truly don't think I succeeded in capturing the beauty of what the gentleman and I saw, but here is the result of my attempt, as my last entry for CATCHING THE LIGHT, with John Denver's Sunshine On My Shoulder.

my entries for catching the light

 

 

Dear BiTwin, fellow PNEHs, painters, poets, Mai Quang and Forum friends,

"Well, my eyes are full of stars
But I just can't reach 'em... oh, how high they are
I gotta believe what I'm thinking can come true
But in a modern world that can be so hard to do"
( from Rise to the sun by Alabama Shakes)I wish I could catch the light from the stars to submit as entry, but I had to settle for what I was able to do.
So here are my entries. The first one was a photo of a little portion of the gigantic Swarovski chandelier at the lobby of Top of the Rock. The picture was taken this Wednesday when I went to Rockefeller Center to check out Jacques Torres's chocolate shop.
The second one was a piece of ice I picked up from the ground of my garden and placed on the leaves to catch the light for the photo shoot. It kept falling on the ground and chipping away to finally become a heart shape (morale of the story for me: often things do happen for a reason, and what seemed not to work out at first, did turn out to be better in the end:-)) 
The third photo was also taken on the same Wednesday, on my way back to the office.

And finally, as a substitute for the light from the stars, a beautiful song by Alabama Shakes which I heard for the first time yesterday when my son gave me a ride and so I learned something new from him :-).

Have a nice weekend everyone

Showing Movements

 

 

 

 

Hi all,

Action photography is always one of my strong interest, and thus my
success rate of "freezing movement" is not too bad so far. On the
other hand, "showing movements" of fast moving subjects is always
challenging. The technique I usually used is "panning": pan your
camera along the same direction with your subject & matching the speed
of your subject. This technique is quite challenging & tough to master
(it's very easy for your main subject is not in focus due to the slow
shutter speed), but we always get rewarded when our attempts are
successful.

Here are some pictures employing this technique. The first 2 captured
in Vietnam, circa 2010 & the birds were captured in 2012.
