Finally, the blue sky appeared on the third day of our holiday. We switched from museum crawling to monument crawling. If I am to pick one place in Paris I love to hang out the most, that has to be the two islands – Ile de la Cité and Ile St-Louis – in the center of [...]

First Two Days In Paris Was Colder Than We’d Anticipated
August 15th, 2010 No Comments
Time flies. If I don’t get started documenting our travel journal, year 2011 may hit me before I know it. June this year, we have visited France. Like our trip to Spain last year, I am going to publish an article every weekend, until I run out of materials. I am familiar with Paris. When [...]

It’s Time Of The Moon Again

Last evening, returned home from a lovely dinner gathering with Symantec, Cynthia was already in bed. I opened the window, cool air greeted my face. As I extended my vision from near to far, from the golf course on the other side of the reservoir to the pitch-dark sky, I saw a bright dot. It [...]

Still Wilfrid The Paparazzi, On Felicia And Nathaniel
December 2nd, 2009 6 Comments
If you recall, a year ago, I was happily sharing the exciting news of my nephew and I sharing the same birthday. Decades apart, of course. Looking back at that blog entry, what a bizarre piece of write-up I produced! So much details then that I would have forgotten now. Like I often say, keep [...]

Wilfrid The Paparazzi, At Volcano “Kawah Putih” (Bandung South)
November 29th, 2009 9 Comments
There are many reasons to process the photos not long after the trip. First, viewers are sharp. They may ask why this set of photos is not as good as the previous set. Second, some people may look thinner or … erm … quite the opposite then than now. Especially after one long year. Third, [...]

I love photography. And it is not everyday news that you wake up one day discovering that the product you use has a new model is double as good. I am a proud user of SanDisk’s Extreme IV CompactFlash cards for my Nikon D700. It was their top of the line product trusted by the professional [...]

This Is The End Of The Spain Holiday Series
September 19th, 2009 8 Comments
I wish I could save the best for the last. But my favorite photo album is still the journal of the previous day. Followed by the “Jelly Fish” post that some of my friends refer to. The writing of this set of journal have been one helluva journey. A total of more then 22,000 words [...]

So Many Boats, In The Beautiful Island of Mallorca (Majorca)
September 13th, 2009 3 Comments
If you are one of the handful of readers who follow this Sunday series, you probably wonder, where am I in the photos? I am often not that keen to go in front of the camera. Happy to stay behind the viewfinder instead. And all of a sudden, in day 11, I put my tripod [...]

Traveling To The Beach Resort Island, A Prelude to Mallorca
September 5th, 2009 2 Comments
The color of this photo is taken straight from my camera, a faithful reproduction of the beautiful sea view that we saw. I have been contemplating if I shall combine the day 10 and 11 entries into one as I didn’t manage to take many photos that day, for circumstances that you will read later. [...]
