Color Fields 1259324580|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- Color fields are photography made up with multiples of similar objects. It is my belief that life celebrates diversity, and I intend to show this through photography — that the visual interests stem from the differences and individualities of each object. Similarly, I believe the world would be a bland and boring place to live in if we were all clones of one another. The future of humanity lies not in raging wars against those who are different than ourselves, but in our ability to accept … Read article

Kisses in black and white 1257022260|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- Kiss = Love + Affection + CompatibilityKiss is an active project of mine. I have been working on it since 2007. I rarely photograph in the studio, so most of these were taken in real life, usually during events were I happened to be photographing. I usually try to get permission after spotted the love birds in their acts. The photos were shot after I gained permission, but as love is in the air, they generally came out fairly natural as they could care less about whether or not a camera was poin… Read article

- Actually these are photography disguised as paintings. I have always wanted to paint but I lack the drawing skills so I try my best to create what I wish to do through the lens of my camera.Most of these also exist in my abstract photography set because they are abstract by nature.Untitled Abstract / 2009 / SML間 Division / 2009 / SMLAbstract in C / 2009 / SMLUntitled Forms / 2006 / SMLUntitled Forms / 2008 / SMLAbstract in Beige / 2009 / SMLAbstract in G minor / 2009 / SMLDots + Lines / 2007 /… Read article

Taking the umbrella outside of the studio 1253959440|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- I've been reading strobist for a while now and learned a ton of techniques on shooting with flash inside and outside of the studio but I never really tried much of it outside of my studio. Since I was carrying a ton of equipment for my photo trip to Sunset Park, I thought that I would try my first shot using an umbrella outside the studio. Wow what a difference! Definitely carrying the light stand with me next time I go out. Absolutely worth the extra bit of weight!Technical info: Canon 580EX mo… Read article

Aaron Johnson Chelsea Tour 1252569600|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- I met Aaron Johnson (Flickr:Erotocrat) on Flickr. I really enjoy his stream and the witty comments by him and his loyal followers, and I decided to meet up with him on 2009-09-04. All photographs were taken that same afternoon. Aaron keeps a journal to jot down interesting conversation. Hopefully I'll get quoted at some point in his satires.Men trapped in a prison named GYM167 8th Ave, New York, NY 10011What is art?I think this is art!I think this is art too!Abstracts: everywhere I go, I like to… Read article

Eastern State Penitentiary 1252501680|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- Eastern State Penitentiary (Wikipedia) is considered one of America's most historic former prisons. It was the world's first true penitentiary, a prison designed to inspire penitence - or true regret - in the hearts of criminals. the original seven cellblocks spread like the spokes of a wheel, and had running water and central heat before the White House.Its vaulted, sky-lit cells held many of America's most notorious criminals, including bank robber "Slick Willie" Sutton and "Sca… Read article

Abstracts in C 1251313800|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- Downtown Brooklyn is changing very quickly, with buildings going up at a very fast pace. With development comes the scaffolding and other construction materials that often present itself as a wonderful canvas for photography.Abstracts in C major and C minor refers to the dominance of the color cyan. C major is where cyan fills out the photo. C minors are duets of cyan with other colors.These were shot with the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM lens and the Canon Macro Twin Lite MT-24EX flash on a t… Read article

Multi Strobes 1251001560|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- I've done multi-strobes before. But only in the studio, and always with a tripod.Tonight I went to see Arthur's Landing and I took some photographs. The place is completely dark and I'm using my flash. The dynamic energy and motion of the musicians were lost, so I thought to myself, why not try it out with multi-strobes - it's silly to get the 580EX and just stick it on with TTL all the time. So here it is. Hand-held at a live event, with no tripod, trying to hold the camera still while setting … Read article

Decay 1250336760|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover

Boston 1250005800|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- Last week a went up to Boston to join my parents visiting from Hong Kong to visit my sister. Unlike my previous visits where I was too busy with my friends, I really got to spend some quality time with my family. Since it was a family trip and not a photo trip, I brought only a single lens and I now declare the 24-70 f/2.8L my everywhere lens.My sister was kind enough to drive me around the MIT campus and the Harvard Medical School where she now works to see some pretty spectacular buildings, an… Read article

Space and the quality of light 1220814420|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- Taking photographs of people was fun for a while. The journalistic images generated much traffic for my Flickr stream, and photographs depicting the diverse lives of souls have given me much pleasure. Event photography requires a totally different skillset, and I am happy to have the experience I had in the past two years doing that... but I appear to have neglected the reason why I started to begin with, which was to study composition. As I ran out of reasons to find and attend events that I ap… Read article

Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8 L USM: Experience Report: Part 1 1219608720|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- Bought a new lens this weekend: the Canon 24-70mm f/2.8 L USM. This is my first L lens priced over a thousand dollars, so for sure it is a fairly big buy for me. It also filled the gap in my lens line-up between 40 and 70 (which are currently served by either 17-40 and 70-200). Based on the results taken today around Brooklyn Bridge, it looks like that it has made its cut to become my new walk-around lens.SML Flickr Set: Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8 L USM Highlights from today:… Read article

Kiss 1215580740|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- When the festivals are over and the city paces down to normal, I venture the night scenes in search of delicate moments of human expression. Did you know that kissing is not just an act of affection, but has biological function? Apparently, it is a way to allow prospective mates to smell and taste each other's pheromones for biological compatibility.

Gay Pride New York 2008 1214822700|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- It was pouring so hard that I missed the parade this year, but I did managed to photograph the other events during pride week. Because of the weather, I shot most of these at ISO 800. Although quite grainy when viewed at 1:1, the photographs were fine at screen resolution scaled down.As in my previous experience, for shooting events with a lot of crowd, zooming all the way into the expression of folks far outweigh the necessity to show the costume and such. Here are some highlights:… Read article
