Apart from Sakura, there are plenty of other attractions at Shinjuku Gyoen (新宿御苑) - Carp fish or Koi fish, beautiful Japanese gardens, stone lantens, bridges and ponds and of course people. In fact, lots of people, out on picnic under the Sakura trees to enjoy the beauty and shade offered by the Sakura trees or just to soak up the warm spring sun. It was truly a beautiful picture.
This lady looks like she is wiping her tears away... Please let me assure you that there is nothing further from the truth. She is just putting some cream on, possibly sun screen. :)
I was born in HK but spent majority of my life in the sun burnt Australia. I am an IT consultant working in the finance and telco industries specialising in SCM.
As a freelance photographer, My portfolio includes corporate functions, community events, concerts, dance, sports, portraits and products. Clients include private and government as well as charity and non-profit organisations.
I picked up photography in September, 2004 when I purchased my first dSLR, a Nikon D70. God provided me a D3 in June '08 and business took off since then.
Photography is not about gear (although one can only see what your camera lets you see and I do love mine). It is the combination of light, colour, time, perspective, contrast, shapes, texture, pattern, emotion, connection and the story it can aptly and wonderfully communicate. With it, I have learnt so much about myself, the world around us - people, God's creation - nature, man's creation - architecture, the big and the (really beautifully) small and I have come across wonderful and inspiring people.
I hope to capture beautiful memories for you and your loved ones, or help to promote your cause through imagery.
