Chinese New Year – Day One

Posted on 07/02/200808/05/2019 By Reedz

There were at least 30 other photogs with the same objective. It’ll be interesting to see the different perspectives and interpretations offered by all of them. Unfortunately, some of the otais haven’t yet gotten on the web, so not much chance of seeing their works 🙁

Exactly Where I Need to Be

Posted on 30/01/202523/12/2025

An old friend whom I hadn’t seen in awhile asked how things were, and without hesitation, I said, “I am exactly where I need to be.” It wasn’t something rehearsed, nor was it a way to sidestep the usual small talk. It was a realisation shaped by time, experience, and…
