Assignment 1
Extraordinary out of Ordinary




Title: Serenity


Technique Used: Frame within a Frame, Lines and Shapes


Description: The reason why I want to take this structure is because I find C.H.I.J.M.E.S gives out a very serenity feel in the afternoon and is actually a very 'happening' place in the night. For this photo, i used the surrounding plantings as a frame for the church and, that, further enhance its serenity.








Title: Appreciating


Technique: Triangle and Leading Lines

Description: The life in Singapore is usually hectic and stressful. Thus, a lot of people seldom slow their pace down, take a close look to their surroundings and appreciate them. Therefore, I decided to take a photo of the nice mural on the glass and also, show the 'busy-ness' under the glass.



Title: The Bridge

Technique Used: Lines and Shape


Description: I was shopping in The Central when this bridge caught my attention as the afternoon lighting and the surroundings gave it a very tranquility feel.


Title: Lone

Technique Used: Negative Spaces, Lines and Shapes

Description: When I exit the toilet at Raffles City Shopping Centre, this plant caught my attention. Though it was placed in highly circulated corridor, it seem to be giving out a cry, a cry for somebody to notice and appreciate its beauty. Perhaps it is due to the indoor lighting at night that gives it the cry.



I, me and myself





Title: Time


Technique Used: Leading Lines and Triangle


Description: In this hectic city, one will seldom have enough time to spend with him/her self. Thus, we should really find some time to talk to our inner self and be sure of what we want and not get lost in midst of searching for your dream. As I am quite an adventurous guy, I choose to sit on the ledge of the second floor.

Technique Used: Filling the Frame, Leading Lines and Triangle.


Description: Ever since I own a digital camera, I love photography. However, I often take photo for the sake of taking as I do not know that photography involve a lot of work behind it. Therefore, I had a very fruitful and fun experience, going around and taking photos.
