Week Four ...

When I saw that the Week Four theme from the 52 Weeks: the 2012 Edition group was "Extreme detail", the first thing that pops into my mind would be macro, one of my favourite ways to shoot.  Half way through the week I still hadn't had time to think about it then while shopping for groceries saw some blackberries on special (the thrifty shopper that I am) quickly thought that's it....so here is the result....



Berry shooting is my favourite, I just love them.  Click HERE to have a look at my last berry shot.

Week Three ...

Bought this old book from a Newtown second hand bookstore [click HERE to read a bit about this book and HERE to read a bit about the bookstore] and the magnifying glass with a double dragon design in an antique store in Singapore's Chinatown...



Life can be good, if we only let it.

Week Two ...

Taken in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia...
inside a coffee shop [not the cafe type of shop] but an instant coffee grains selling kinda shop, taste testing of all types of flavoured coffees like durian, coconut, plain, hazelnut and much much more...

Week One...

Taken in "Lau Fau Shan" in the New Territories, Hong Kong.
This is where you can taste any type of seafood that tickles your fancy, when you enter the alleyway you will find lots of different seafood restaurants where you can see the swimming in fish tanks. After you feast on your food you can continue down the laneway and reach the end where you can buy dried seafood of a lot of kinds, from salted fish to abalone, the skys the limit.
