I am a 42-year old husband and father. I was an avid computer gamer and DOF, F-stops and the like were foreign to me until my wife introduced me to photography.

I began shooting during the latter part of March 2010 and quickly became addicted to it. I started this blog to share my journey and to learn along the way. Special thanks to my wife Eng who encouraged me and to all my friends in Blogosphere who shared their knowledge and taught me to further this craft.

i guess, in photography,to be different is a self expression, a mark of who you are as an artist....and what an expression this is.

bold, brave and yes, daring!!!! the light is as what biana says, extraordinary.

Those sun rays are superb. But please can I see the original one too?

This is incredible. Absolutely amazing. I'd love to see your before and afters.

A very low tide it would seem! What time of year was this? It's rare that the difference in tides is so great in mid-summer. Spectacular light once again!

You said " what I do " ! I am now wondering - you or the nature made the colour of this sky ;)

But the photo is thrilling!
