Titles are overrated anyway

I'm afraid no bicyles are allowed beyond this point...

Oh how we miss the early memories...

"When I was 5 years old, my mum always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down "happy". They told me I didn't understand the assignment. I told them they didn't understand life."

   It's amazing how badly we wanted to grow up as little kids. Not even fully grown up and already I wish I could have frozen my childhood and run away to Neverland where I could be young forever. And fight pirates, we don't want to forget the pirates...

Practise makes perfect (3)

For those of you who have seen my previous posts, you'll know that I secretly aspire to become a national geographic photographer and take professional photos of animals and such. Well here's some more practise...

I'm Back!

Hii. I can't believe it's been six months since I last posted on this blog. Not that many people read it though so I suppose it's not much of an issue. But for those few who do, I apologise. High school can be quite inconvenient at times. Anyway, thought I'd say goodbye to the old year (5 months too late) with an oceanic sunset taken in the city where I capture my most memorable photographic moments... CAPE TOWN.

So you might remember me mentioning wanting to become a National Geographic photographer. Well that's still an option in dreamland so here's me practising some more...

 

Apparently the only way to get a good close up of a duck is to have a lot of bread on hand. But probably not too much or they end up crowding you and walking over your feet... Seriously, I have webbed footprints on my shoes to prove it.

No name brand...

So I saw a butterfly today. I know this might sound weird but it's the first butterfly that I've noticed in a while. A really long while. It might not be the brightest or most unusual of butterflies, but for some reason I just had to take a picture. I wanted to capture that moment.

It might not be the best of pictures, and it might be a bit blurry. But as I continuously remind myself, I didn't start this blog just to show off my best pictures. Well that wasn't the main point at least. the purpose of this blog is to share with you memories and feelings that I have captured in my lens. And for some reason I want to share this butterfly. I want to share the feelings that I felt when I saw it fluttering by. Of course, I can't really explain those feelings, but you know what they say, a picture is worth a thousand words...

Peace...

This was not the picture that I originally intended to post today. My original photograph was kind of busy with quite a few elements and such, but then it occurred to me; life is so busy all the time, that sometimes we need a little peace and calm. So that is why I decided to post this picture. It’s one that I took a while back and I can vividly remember the moment before taking the picture. All I could here were the peaceful sound of waves and the flowers swaying in the breeze seemed to just calm me down and make me forget all my worries. In that moment I didn’t have a care in the world. A lot has changed since I took that photograph. Life is somehow becoming more hectic day by day and I'm glad that I managed to capture a memory of that one moment of peace and tranquillity.
