Bubbles

35mm, China, Hong Kong, Kodak Portra 400, Olympus Trip 35 No Comments

After nearly five years, I have finally posted my 1000th photo! I created this blog in July 2015 partly to share my photos, but mostly as a way to record my journey as a photographer for myself. It has been an immensely rewarding process and one I hope will continue for years to come. And […]

Xi’an Overnight Train

35mm, China, Lomography Color 800, Superheadz Ultra Wide & Slim, toy camera No Comments

We took an overnight train from Shanghai to Xi’an to see the Terracotta Warriors. There was very little privacy on the overnight train. Compartments had six berths and an open doorway to the corridor. We shared our compartment with a university student and a lovely Chinese family. In fact, there were many families with young […]

Sarah and I took a bicycle tour through the countryside of Yangshuo. But to get to the bicycle rental shop, we had to first walk through a rather sketchy underground parking lot before emerging on the other side in an alley where I took these photos.

Kunming Lake

Sarah & I toured the Summer Palace on our first full day in Beijing, China. It was a spectacular day but Sarah wasn’t too pleased with me by the end. The temperature reached an incredibly hot 40˚C, and not only did I make her climb to the top of Longevity Hill to take some photos, […]

I picked up 8 rolls of Perutz Primera 100 film on eBay and have been thrilled by how well this expired, discontinued film has stood the test of time. These photos were taken around Yangshuo, China.

Dolphins at Ocean Park

35mm, China, Hong Kong, Kodak Ektachrome E100, Olympus Trip 35 No Comments

Sarah and I caught the dolphin show at Ocean Park in Hong Kong. I was quite pleased at how well my Olympus Trip 35 managed to freeze the action of the dolphins jumping. These were shot on the new Kodak Ektachrome E100. Ektachrome is one of my favourite films and I can’t wait to shoot […]

Xi’an Muslim Quarter

35mm, China, Lomography Color 100, Olympus Trip 35 No Comments

Of the many places that Sarah & I visited in China this summer, one of my favourites was the Xi’an Muslim Quarter. I could have spent hours wandering and photographing the Muslim Quarter’s night market. It was simply incredible! Sadly, I was unprepared that night and hadn’t brought enough film. These are some of the […]

I recently visited China for my honeymoon. Sarah and I spent three weeks travelling the country visiting many places including the city of Chengdu, where we spent an afternoon in People’s Park. Near the Railway Protection Movement Monument, we saw an old man practicing calligraphy. He was writing poetry on the pavement with a brush […]
