May 2018 – The following post is a collection of street shots taken in the district of Tsim Sha Tsui, on the Kowloon side of Hong Kong. As you can probably tell from the title, I ended up with quite a number featuring people on their phones (easy to do in a city as metropolitan…
20 April 2016 – After a fourteen hour flight onboard Emirates from Sydney to Dubai and a further eight hours from Dubai to London (following a two hour stopover), my wife and I finally arrived at Heathrow for the start of our UK adventure. While our initial plan was to rest, I figured it was…
Knowing how long it takes for me to write a regular blog post, I thought I’d share a shorter one featuring some highlights from last month’s trip abroad to Hong Kong and Europe instead. It was an absolute privilege to be able to visit the port cities shown below, and to see (as well as…

2 December 2017 – It’s funny how a song can sometimes trigger a memory of a certain time and place… Take “Rhythm of Love” by the Plain White T’s for example: hearing the song transports me back to San Francisco in 2012, at a time when it seemed to be all over the airwaves there.…
UPDATE (January 2018) – You can find Part 2 of ‘A Visit to Hoi An, Vietnam’ here. Taking on a self-appointed shooting project or challenge is a great way to develop your personal photography.

16 May 2017 – It was hardly a surprise to read that Lonely Planet had recently ranked Seville as the top city to visit in 2018 – after all, the capital of Spain’s Andalusia region certainly has a lot to offer travellers in search of culture and beauty, from its share of famous historical landmarks and…
