Sunrise Over Mekong River

This shot of the Mekong River was taken at 6.30am over 9 exposure and merged to create a HDR photo. Just sharing this photo of the River taken from the bank on the Vientiane side while I go through the rest of the photos taken throughout my stay there.

Hopefully you’d like I have in store, til then, have a MERRY CHRISTMAS and have a wonderful New Year!

Roast Duck @ Loong Foong Seafood Restaurant

After eating at Sunrise Duck at Seapark for a number of time now, I decide to bring Stephenie to another famous restaurant where people just lined up in droves to buy Roast Ducks. That place was known as Loong Foong Seafood restaurant located just about 15minutes walk from Sunrise. The place operates only at night but you can see people lining up to buy ducks there from as early as 5ish. I used to be one of them who would go there to buy on the way home from work.

Got ourselves a nice place to sit and proceed to order half a duck with a simple plate of vege. It took them about 5min before serving us our food which is quite ok looking at the amount of people waiting in line for their take-away. (more…)

Punggol East Sun Rise

I’m always intrigue by the greens that’s available all over Singapore. At Punggol, there’s more green around the place compared to what I can see in Kuala Lumpur.

Landscape photography in a way is very new to me, but I guess it’s something that’s easy to learn. It’s all about being at the right place at the right time and knowing the frame that we want to see the images in. After doing some research and talking to people, I realized some of the places actually produced very nice photos of Sun Rise and Sun Set. I decide to take this chance to check out this place they call Punggol End one early morning without waking her up to go capture some sun rise, these is what I manage to get. (more…)

Virgin Dawn Experience

The last couple of days, I’ve been posting up a lot of first, from Sunset to landscapes to HDRs to Moon. Today, here’s a sun rise photography first for me. Waking up early in the morning just to go catch the morning sun rising over the horizon. It’s not the easiest of thing do, try dragging yourself out of the bed at 5 in the morning and start getting ready to head out to the location. It ain’t easy!
