A landmark which Signal comrades will never forget!

Week 21 - Singing Birds @ Dawn Break

Came across these mechanical cranes standing in the midst of a beautiful skyline during dawn break.

Newer generations will no longer see the greenery and attap houses which our parents use to grow up in.. I guess even mother nature evolves..​

Week 22 - Waiting In The Rain

This is the first of two consecutive Saturday mornings of heavy rain...

Ever had that moment whereby you find yourself stuck in the rain and just started staring blankly at the rain drops?​

Week 24 (13th Jun - 19th Jun) - Service

A staff from Turi Turi Resort's Tspa was making some adjustments to the positions of the orchids.. I was wondering how much a difference could it have made...

When she left, I decided to compose a shot for this.. I then begin to realise how beautiful it was due to the effort put in by the staff to make it a pleasant stay for us.. Kudos to the service!​

Week 28 (11th July - 17th July) - Children Are Like Kites

"Children are like kites
You run with them until you are breathless.
They crash – you add a longer tail,
they hit the roof-top – you pluck them from spouts.
You patch and comfort, adjust and teach.
You watch them lifted by the wind
and assure them some day they’ll fly.
Finally they’re airborne
but they need more string
so you keep letting it out.
With each twist of the twine there’s
sadness and joy because the kite
becomes more distant and
you know it won’t be long before
it will snap the fine line
that has bound you together,
soar as it was meant to soar… independently free."​
