The Wave of North Sea


It was really freezing dumb cold! At least, for a person like me from a tropical country like Singapore. I had a good time spending a week here in Thymouth, UK though. I must thank my host (Mrs. Jane H Black,Hon. Exhibiton Chairman) of the Northern Counties Salon for putting me in a hotel right facing this beautiful seascape across the road. I preoccupied myself with taking pictures of the powerful and dramatic scene before judging the 1996 Northern Counties International Salon,UK. I love the lighting and contrast of the image. The vigorous waves provided the image with strong visual impact.

Water Fantasy

Waterfalls are one of my favourite photographic subjects. I was attracted by the refracted colours created by the splashing water during one of my visit to the waterfalls at Bali in 1990. The accuracy of the exposure for the rainbow colours of the splash is essential to this image. I utilized a slow shutter speed setting to capture the movement of water at the right moment.

I love the lines and curves that were created by the flow of water. A printed reproduction of this picture was acquired for the permanent collections of a Singapore government ministry.
