Greetings, friends!
Today is my last day in Singapore – at 2.30am, I will board a flight that will take me back to Detroit via Moscow and Houston. Before leaving, I wanted to go out to look at my adopted hometown through a camera lens – to play tourist, to see things that I may not have paid much attention to before. Part 1 of this series comes from Arab St., the old Muslim quarter during Colonial times.

I decided to try something new today. (Uh-oh, you may say) I woke up before sunrise and walked across the street to the park by the reservoir (kinda like a lake) to catch some pictures at sunrise. I played with hyperfocal distance and bracketing, and came back home to work together a HDR image. Now, I’m normally not very good at landscapes, and I’ve never really done HDRs before, and I didn’t have my tripod because it’s in different pieces in Texas and Florida, but with a little knowledge, software, patience, time, and caffiene, it’s doable. I’m happy with it.

I’m still in Singapore, and last week I was able to take some pictures of my youth pastor’s 1-month old daughter, Abigail. She’s a beautiful little girl, and it’s kinda fun to look at her features and trace them to her dad, who’s from Arkansas, and her mom, MySan, who’s Vietnamese-Chinese. (but grew up in Canada!)

Greetings from Singapore!
My sophomore year ended two weeks ago, and I have since returned to Singapore for a short break with my family before heading back to the US for my summer work. My first Sunday back, I had the opportunity to photograph a concert my church was putting on. It was good practice for me, and I got to continue refining my post-processing technique with the new workflow.
