among friends and flowers

Hello everyone!

Writing this post in the middle of the night after procrastinating for a few days haha.
So recently, we had a class trip to gardens by the bay! (for free) and Singapore botanical gardens ~ we travelled there as a class and was suppose to take photos related to the theme "nature" and "man-made". For this post, the pictures will be from GBTB. I also included some shots after my experience in the flower dome and cloud forest (●⌒∇⌒●)
To be honest, it was actually my first time at GBTB hahaha the place was really lovely and smelt like plant life the moment i entered. The flower dome had air conditioning and really amazing sunlight (aka the perfect place to take photos and chill at the same time). Hope you guys enjoy the shots!


Shooting with friends at this beautiful place ~





Up close and personal!

the camera that was provided to us for this shoot was the little Lumix!

railroad ride

hello,
what have you guys been up to this month?
last sunday, i went out with an old school friend, valerie! we have been studying at different colleges for half a year now and it's been really hard finding time to meet up and stuff. so i was really happy when we got together for this photo shoot!

hope you enjoy the photos ~

we went to an abandoned railroad to shoot all these photos.
here in singapore, the railroad is pretty popular and many people come here to take wedding photos and have casual photo shoots etc.

spend time on the brighter side of life :)
as long as you keep wandering, you'll end up somewhere ~




small things that make you happy - jumping on grass?  and walking among flowers! hahahaha 


have time for a relaxing book on this chilly day

time waits for no one
and before you know it, the month is coming to an end ~
this was a really random thought but wow, it's almost november! what have i done in 2014?











































thank you so much for viewing my shots! 

on a side note, i just started my second day of school and i'm having fun already? (maybe because i'm taking the photography module and i'm sooooo stoked for it) our first photography lecture was today and there are outdoor shoots planned for my class! really hope to learn something new and apply it to my photos so i can give y'all better quality photos :) 

btw, if you guys are wondering, el means 'the' so my header means: the ven things 
hahahahaha ok bye

see you lovely people in the next post

wandering

hello friends!

so a few days back, i explored clarke quay and went to a cat café located at that area. i went with my cousin and walked everywhere trying to find some nice places to take photos of aka being touristy in my own country hahaha 


colours ~
when i saw this building i imagined a perfect colour palette with its colours all in its own place.
hence, i waited for a really long time for all the vehicles to pass by so that i could quickly snap this shot.

hmm, spot the kitten? hint: top shelf


Meet Emma!
my cousin and i went this quaint little cat cafe after walking for an hour or so along the streets of clarke quay. it was around 4pm where the cats were all having their afternoon nap. hence, i didn't manage to capture all of their cats there. anyways, it was a lovely place to chill, have some coffee and play with the cats.


Kai kai!


Meet Jia jia and Mr white!







after spending the entire afternoon and evening walking around i managed to capture all of these shots! it started to drizzle slightly so we headed into the malls for shelter. nonetheless, it was a great day :) 

hope you guys enjoyed the photos ~
talk to you soon x
