Fengjia night market Signs for Sign2

 


Clams bake and grill Sign



This sort of game is popular in Asia


Calamari roast 


Strolling through a night vendor market is not particularly conducive to weight loss. However, I take great pleasure in wandering through such places, camera in hand, with my wide-angle lens capturing the lively atmosphere. To avoid the incessant nuisance of scam calls, I make use of a different SIM card while abroad.

Despite my travels overseas, Joel remains in regular contact with me via Signal. He appears rather enthusiastic about the prospect of starting his own podcast, though I sincerely hope he does not. His intensely private nature is well-founded, and only a true friend could engage with his perspectives without passing judgment.

Street photography serves as a sport for me, and as such, my frames often include various signs encountered along the way.

I am currently enjoying the third season of The White Lotus and have reached the fourth episode. Additionally, I am planning an overnight trip to Shifen, a region renowned for its picturesque waterfall and vibrant night market. However, as my mobile plan is limited to only one gigabyte of data per month, I must rely on public Wi-Fi to access the blog.

Melbourne Night at Birrarung Marr

 



Just too many people in the city. After that long gig 2 nights ago, I am binge watching Lord of the Rings on Netflix instead. Such a tragic story to watch.

Mungo National Park Desert sky for Skywatch Friday

 


The shot was taken using a Voigtlander 12mm f2.8. It was a tiring trip to access the location. I regret taking this lens only to a night shoot. The colour is not the same as Sony FE 14mm f1.8

Firelight Food truck Signs for Sign2

 




The evening was great for night urban vibe. I was using 50mm f1.2 for the sake of it. How fun!

Pinnacles Milkyway Bow for Water H2O Thursday

 


This was what Joel and I were up to last weekend. New moon. Zero cloud for 5 seconds though. It was after a hike elsewhere on Phillip Island. Then we had fish n chips before coming up here for a milkyway bow.

Light pollution is seen on the right. Thanks for the urban sprawl into this once peaceful island.

Lake Boga Milkyway for Thursday Water H2O event

 



This was taken last night. The weather turned good on a new moon night. So I took the camera to the lake side for a snap. Damn, it was so cold -2 degrees Celsius.

Melbourne Lightscape for Sunday Best

 


This is the royal botanic garden. It costs 55 bucks for all time entry. No refund possible. Joel and I came here ready to shoot on Thursday night. This lake in the garden is usually quite boring for me. Not that night.

Bendigo Electrical Wonderland for Sunday Best

 


I was getting back to my car after a dinner in town. There was no queue in this light up event in local park. So I decided to take a stroll.

Surfer's paradise urban sunset for Sunday Best

 


On this night, I took night shots in Gold Coast and Brisbane. Joel and I went back to hotel after 2 am. That led to a late riser next morning ready for an adventure to Lamington national park.
