Photo Walk - Van Gogh Alive Exhibition and Walk

At the end of my post about the Tadao Ando exhibition, I mentioned that soon I would be visiting the Van Gogh Alive exhibition. I did end up going, and though it wasn’t really what I was expecting, it was still interesting. But for me, even more interesting was

"The Light of Ancient Roman Civilization" Exhibition

Last weekend I paid a quick visit to the Beijing World Art Museum to check out “The Light of Ancient Roman Civilization” exhibition. This was my first time going to this museum, I wasn’t even aware of it. This museum is in the west area of Beijing, whereas I

Photo Walk - Buildings Through a Long Lens

One week after my first shots with my new camera, on this day I decided to use my 40-150mm f2.8 lens. It’s probably the lens I have used the least, so I wanted to give it some love. Due to the lack of travel, I have only been

Photo Walk - First Time With My New Camera

Yangshuo - Treasure Cave

I took this photo in May 2020, in Yangshuo, China, inside Treasure Cave. I used my Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark II [https://www.getolympus.com/us/en/e-m5-mark-ii.html] and the 7-14mm f/2.8 PRO lens [https://www.getolympus.com/us/en/m-zuiko-ed-7-14mm-f2-8-pro.html]. Settings were f/5.6,

Quarantine Photography in Yangshuo, China

So, I just moved to Yangshuo, China! It will probably only be a temporary move for a couple of months or so, but I’m excited to be here. I’ve lived and worked in Beijing since January 2018, but my work contract recently ended. Before I started looking for

5 Photography Goals For 2020

Yes, I know it’s almost May, kind of late to be making 2020 photography goals, isn’t it? Well, this year is a bit different than most so I’m just going to go with it. With all the free time I’ve had recently, I started to think

Xi'an Drum Tower

Last April I had four days off for the Qingming Festival, so I decided to pay a visit to Xi’an. It was high up on my list of cities I wanted to visit in China, so I was excited to be finally going. Xi’an is now the capital
