It’s hard to know what’s happening in the world and not to be impacted by it, mentally. Creating images with peace and harmony is my hideout and therapy. I took this picture from a girl’s outdoor ballet and digitally painted it.

Rain, Rain, Don’t go away
If you grow up in the tropical region where the rains come down no stop, you won’t like the rain. Or, if you happen to walk down the street of Milan, Italy as a traveler while it rains for consecutive three hours and you end up having to buy an umbrella, you don’t like itContinue reading “Rain, Rain, Don’t go away”
A morning of Action
It appears to be a good fishing day…. wish I had my fast camera with me. The weather was chilly and a bit gloomy, but a few surprises have made me a wonderful morning. Egrets are not rare spices or uncommon birds, but snapping a fishing scene was my first. In less than one minute,Continue reading “A morning of Action”
It’s a Good Day
if there is blue sky above with patches of white clouds and golden Sunshine under to glow the flowers… It’s steaming hot outside, but I feel the calm and cool air in my mind.
On the Bike again
After 4-year recess, I am on the bike again. There are so many bike trails within a 30-40 minutes drive.

When the choices are abundant, I, on the contrary, don’t feel inspired to spend hours on my favorite close-up flower pictures. Reality is truthful but not all beautiful. My passionContinue reading “Olympic Trial and Ballet”
Simply Thistles
My daily walk path is trimmed with thistles. Whenever I walked by, I thought to come out something different than what I’ve done throughout the years. I tried to use different lens and did it in the different time of the season. In all, I think the ice-laced version is probably my most favorite. ThistlesContinue reading “Simply Thistles”
Keep it Up
When I was back to my blog, I decided that I will say less and show work more frequently. My goal is to continue my photography journey and turn my pictures into paintings as my inspiration leads me on. I admit that I cannot completely ignore the shocking global and local news, but at theContinue reading “Keep it Up”
A New Start
After a long silence, I have decided to move on and get back to my routines. From considerably reduced outing to staying home, I have put aside my camera and picked up the stylus to paint using my photograph as the starting point. Never painted before, it is a brand-new challenge and endeavor for me.Continue reading “A New Start”
