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.

How did you achieve this effect,Dave?? A brilliant photo - the colours, the mood! Life is flowing by, but the old buildings - symbols of the city stand still and no fussing or hurrying around can annoy them...

it makes me remember Guy Fawkes Day in my schoolbook, although it does not look like being on fire ... but it is surprising ... funny idea ...
