I was once told that people wearing a punk hairstyle were actually very friendly and polite. I chatted up to a few and found it to be true on some occasions.

Well, I was still alive after the photo capture.

OK. This was a fluke. He wanted me to take a pic of him at the beach. Though this is not a pure candid street shot, it kind of is as the stranger decides to have his soul stolen by me!

Beach Road, St Kilda

Lately I received some nasty comments about my noisy imperfect B+W photos. Some even asked me to use proper camera gear too.

To me, I went through different life crisis or drama. These photos were my ways to distract myself from other inevitable mundane matters. The poor resolution or back focusing of the gear actually take me to those time too. 

Honestly most of these posted images on this blog were sitting in a forgotten hard disc. Like most of us, these were often lost images that one cannot get this memory back, good or bad.
