Sometimes I prefer to do 'mood' shots for family photos. The photos below were taken in colour and later converted to different tones...

Geocities Website

Yahoo is closing down the Geocities web service soon and had advised to shift my website elsewhere. The geocities web service was one which i signed up during my uni days, where i offer my photography service on a freelance basis. It is sad that they are closing the service... Anyway, below is an extract which I wrote when I was younger... and i am affirming this belief now... Wow! It is almost 10 years already... 'Wai Peng's love for photography is built on 5 elements: love, passion, sincerity, goodness and beauty of life. Paradoxically, some inexperienced souls think of photography as unimportant.

Abalone for Mother's Day?

During a seminar, a woman asked," How do I know if I am with the right person?" The author then noticed that there was a large man sitting next to her so he said, "It depends. Is that your partner?" In all seriousness, she answered "How do you know?" Let me answer this question because the chances are good that it's weighing on your mind replied the author. Here's the answer. Every relationship has a cycle… In the beginning; you fall in love with your partner. You anticipate their calls, want their touch, and like their idiosyncrasies. Falling in love wasn't hard. In fact, it was a completely natural and spontaneous experience. You didn't have to DO anything. That's why it's called "falling" in love. People in love sometimes say, "I was swept ...
