Leaving

Date October 26, 2007

Dead leaves, dying leaves, fresh leaves. We don’t normally pay attention to these things. They are there around us — and will always be there for us — that we tend to take their existence for granted.

I too ignore them most of the time, except when I had a camera with me.

Whatever Left Of It

I was trekking inside Singapore’s MacRitchie Nature Reserve recently, and with a camera in hand, I tend to be more observant of my surroundings. This is one of the pictures I took from such an observation, thinking at that time to just fool around with the camera and see how it would turn out.

The picture turned out okay, I guess. From this picture on, I made it a point to be always on the lookout for things unusual that might be a good subject for macro photography.
