Indeed, the realm of prize-winning street photography often seems dominated by themes of poverty or the horrors of war. This trend tends to overshadow genuine street photography, which frequently goes unappreciated. It is rather disheartening. I must acknowledge the need to seek out photographers in Melbourne who have a genuine passion for this genre.

Cycling is more than just a mode of transportation or a leisurely activity; it's a fantastic way to boost your overall health and well-being. Whether you're cycling to work, taking a weekend ride through the countryside, or hitting the trails for some adventure, the benefits of cycling are abundant and accessible to people of all ages and fitness levels.

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.
