MID-RANGE SHOTS

 Title: Spring in South Korea


People from all walks of life enjoying a peaceful garden stroll by the Seokchon Lake, Seoul on March of 2013. Spring in Seoul typically starts on the first week of March during which it is best to enjoy the natural beauty of  the blooming of cherry blossoms.


Title: Royal Guard of the King's Palace


Pictured above is a member of the Royal Calvary Guard at the new King's Palace in Kuala Lumpur on March 6 2015. Mounted on a horse under a shelter at the front of the palace gates, and donning British-style guard uniforms, this guard's attire stays true to Malaysian elements with its traditional check-pattern sarong wrapped around his waist, woven using gold and silver threads to give it its shimmery texture.

CLOSE-UP SHOTS

Title: A Photo within a Photo


A framed photo found at a little corner of my grandmother's room during the day of her funeral. It was a well-kept photo over the years, but when the time came, it would be cremated together with its owner.


Title: A Woman of Art


The picture shows the artwork of a Henna artist in Batu Cave who has had to practise for more than 10 years to be able to produce such a delicate work of art in less than 5 minutes. However, among the hundreds and hundreds of hands that she has drawn on, probably only a handful of the owners of those hands will truly appreciate the blood, sweat, and tears that she has poured into perfecting her drawing skills.
