Johann Pachelbel Canon in D



I remember during my travels in Paris some 10years ago, I heard this tune for the first time in my life. A busker near the subway station leading to the Arc de Triomphe played this on this violin. He was so awesome and I fell in love with this tune. He told me what it was called, Pachelbel Canon in D will be the tune I will use to walk down the aisle one fine day.

The Island of Gods











I thought I should start this month's posting with some beautiful photos taken in Bali. As I reminisce on the fun I had some two years ago in this Island of Gods. Bali has some of the most spectacular scenes for everyone to enjoy thoroughly. Bali is truly the Island of Gods.

Forgotten Culture










This post will be on my vacation memories. I've travelled to many places near and far, but today's post will give mention to Penang. With its' beautiful beaches and its' delicious food, people often overlook the fact that Penang has an array of culture to fall back on. The photos selected will focus on the cultural aspects of Penang.

Reflection of Life







Reflection of Life and what it is supposed to be..
God's many creation...and I managed to capture these beautiful place with my humble little Lumix.

This is a shot of the entrance of Uncle Neil's farm in Euroa, Victoria, Australia. I remember this cold winter day in July like it was yesterday. The family had so much fun at the huge farm. I had a blast riding at the back of Uncle Neil's pick-up truck in the farm with Lavie..it was so cold, I couldn't feel my hands but it was an Australian Safari I will never forget.

The sky is of no limit





I truly enjoy taking photos of the sky, everywhere I go. I see so many possibilities in the sky and to be able to capture such beauty is beyond me. I see peace and calmness in the sky and the colours it bring to many lives. Often we see beauty in things around us, but how many times have you look up and cherish the beauty of the sky; what it has to offer you?

These are only some of the few photos taken of the sky while I was walking in Melbourne's Brunswick area during the winter's twilight in July.

Life should be a 'beach'






People say a picture paints a thousand words...so for this post it's all about beautiful scenes I've been so lucky to witness and capture with my humble little Lumix. These are some of the photos taken in Penang during a short break; a week before my birthday.

Paradox


There is a paradox involved in the basic quality of human existence. Our hands touch solid objects, our eyes see shapes and colours, our everyday horizons are narrow; yet there are times when the soul seems to stand on hilltops and to glimpse immense vistas of meaning.

When I was recently on a trip, I felt this immense feeling. This feeling is not confined to saints or poets or philosophers - we all have it at certain moments of happiness and relaxation; if we are fortunate enough.

It seems somehow realer than the trivialities of everyday existence. And this is the paradox.

Art




I believe that some of the most beautiful things are done with passion in the heart and expression of feelings. Like Art. I absolutely love Art. Sometimes I wish I was talented in art but I am not. I was not given that gift. But I'm given the gift of appreciation for everything artsy.
