Boyband

A boyband from Hong Kong is making a 2007 world tour. They wanted me to make an advertising poster for them. So, I told them "Sure!"..."Come to San Francisco...I know a place just for it"

So, they came...and I took this shot for them....and also did some simple editing as well. They were happy with it and in return they gave me the rights to blog and distribute it.

Lol...go figure....

Anyway, very first photo entry for this year! Wow...been almost 2 months since the last time I posted pictures over here. I still have a few more pictures to edit and post. But hey...at least it's a start for this year right?

Chinese New Year is coming up and I'm going home to celebrate it after nearly 6 years of absence. In conjunction with that, I'll be attending my high school's friend weddding in Australia. Gosh...one by one is getting married.

Anyway, Happy Chinese New Year peeps. Hopefully this year will be a lot better than last year.

Beautiful San Francisco!

I've been here for so long...and I have not taken any nice pictures around here yet. So here you are...

This was taken when we were passing the Golden Gate Bridge. One hand was holding the steering wheel while I pop my head out, the other was grabbing the camera trying to snap the picture while another hand was making zoom adjustment.

If only I had 3 hands. Lol...good thing that I wasn't the driver ther other day. So, everything was true except for the steering wheel part.

Taken at Pier 59, San Francisco. If you look closely at the lower left corner of the picture, you may be able to see some seals lying on the platform. I don't know...might be too dark to see it.

More sunset pictures below!

Talking about the right place at the right time...

This was taken at one of the stop along 17 mile drive in Monterey, CA. I was driving along the road trying to find the best spot to capture a nice sunset. Finally, I found this nice spot. Along with me, there were other 30 over Korean tourists waiting for the moment. Needless to say, I whipped my camera out, and pushed my way to the front. I'm sure some of the tourists did say some nice things about me, but who cares? I don't understand Korean at all.

I really like the boat right below the setting sun. I'm gonna cry...

Oh come on, I'm not that emotional! I nearly cried when Henry scored the winning goal against Man Utd though....

STFU!!

Some of the older picture I took when I was in Madrid.

I think this man was already irritated by the non-stop yakking from his wife. I'm trying to eat my Churro!! Will you STFU my love?!

Old man

This man...he has this 'don't mess with me' kinda look. I think he was trying to tell me, if I snap another shot of him, he's gonna break my camera.

Happy New Year

Happy new year everyone!
I know I have not been blogging for amont 2 months now? I've been traveling quite a bit for the past few weeks. Of course, I took some pictures, but now I need sit down and slowly edit them.

Spent my Christmas at Lake Tahoe, was hoping to snap a few good ones, but I didn't manage to.

What else? Hmmm, didn't know that I can actually use my google account to sign in for blogspot. They had this little 'upgrade' that I had to go through, which screwed up a bit of things on my blog. Shit! my tag board is gone! Crap, means that I have to get another one.

Anyone excited about the new iPhone from Apple? I reckon this year will be a busy year for me. Have a good one everyone.
