Another year, another festival. I am, again, lucky to be a part of the Canon team as a Canon Ambassador. Be Light Curious!

Retracing my footsteps through Europe | The first time I made my first wish at the Fontana di Trevi, it came true the second time I walked down the steps to take in the amazing work of architect, Nicola Salvi, and sculptor, Pietro Bracci. Wishes do come true.

5 of 10: Ascending

4 of 10: Escape to Serenity | I spotted this lone surfer paddling at 6am, while I was among other photographers shooting Sculpture by the Sea at sunrise.

3 of 10: Internal combustion | I've been experimenting and it has been said I am not afraid of my blacks.

2 of 10: Endless.

I peered out of my window to see the state I visited but did not get to explore, and I was in awe. Flying over Colorado from LA to Florida last 2010. I wonder if it still looks as magnificent now as it was 4 years ago. The world is changing so much that I’m afraid to see what we have done to its beauty.

Last November 2014, I was nominated to do the Black & White Photography Challenge...twice. Instead of posting just 5 photos, I decided to post 10 as a way to drive myself to work on my photos more often and actually share it to the world. I discovered how picky I can be and how much time I pour over one photo when it comes to processing in black and white. I'm learning!!

1 of 10: Going up!

This was a slightly tricky photo to process. I wanted it to reach a point where I felt like I can dive into it and climb up. Hopefully, you feel the same way as I do.

Song of My Day | 7 Jan 2015

I wish that we could somehow freeze the frame

I finally have in my hands Tyler Knott Gregson's Chasers of the Light. It does not have a spot on my bookshelf because it sits within my reach on my desk. In times of stress, of boredom, of absence, it calms and enlightens me. And then I again chase the light.

Can I

for a moment

be appallingly

selfish

and ask for you

to save

me?
