The 52-Week Collection - Week 24: Escape from the city



The more busy we are, the more important it is for us to take the time and go sight seeing / do something relaxing regularly. This might sounds a little bit contradicting or that we might be too busy to even think about it, we have to squeeze time for it.

Being in an office or library, with 4 walls around us and a computer or book or a pile of notes in front of us, 5 or 6 days a week, might somehow make us to forget the other aspects in life that are also worth paying attention to. That is the reason I believe that we have to do something we like or relaxing regularly to keep our mind fresh and in reality.

Rooms for improvement

I am off this Saturday happily so decided take the time to play around, and I went to Disney...station today...haha and the inspiration lake.I am so thankful that the weather is fine and that we have a blue blue sky. Other than too hot and humid lately, everything is just fine. Disneyland is surely a great place to take pictures and I am glad to have chosen this place today, the place somehow gave me some childhood strengths...lol
Thanks George for accompanying me to sight-seeing around and to let me take pictures of u...haha long time no see. This is the first time I take portrait of male...purposely. George is someone who are quite spontaneous and enjoy relaxing style, although he is also a musician playing the piano and violin, I thought a "relaxing" album would suit him more.

I like the pictures but I am having a difficult time trying to develop in other directions...Looking back at the work of this half year, when I pick up the camera to shoot portrait, most of them are half body ones, and the worse thing is I take pictures of this structure automatically. I like the pictures but I don't like that most of them with such alike structure. I need more variations. I need more inspiration. Maybe I should stop taking portraits for a while to cool down a little and to spend more time to be inspired by other photographers for the time being.

Continuous improvement is important...and how could that be done? hmmm...
