Tekka City View and Boat Quay 10th Sept 2010


Alex said the view at Tekka was nice from the top floor of the HDB block, so we went there with our gears. After that, we went to Boat Quay along Singapore River

Bedok North Park 3 Sept 2010


Taken on a late afternoon with the Sigma 70-300mm DG APO with Raynox DCR-250 Macro adapter.

This time round, I went hunting in my army Goretex boots and gutters wrapping my jeans bottom to prevent ants from crawling into my pants..

Money Money Money Montage


A montage of Macro shots at everyone's favourite object of desire!





Most of these were taken with my Sigma 70-300mm DG APO with Raynox DCR-250 macro attachment.

Bedok Reservoir View Canal 2 Sept 2010


Reached home early and thought of trying out my Raynox DCR-250 with the Sigma APO 70-300mm.

The magnification was superb but sadly, the depth of field was so shallow that anything 1-2mm beyond the focal point was blurred out

Pollen is the cocaine for butterflies and bees!

Is it me or is that flower growing a pair of yellow lips?

A moth or a butterfly? Either way, it was perching still, totally oblivious to my lens which was less than 3cm away. Noticed the yellow pollen stuck to its body ?
