People 2012 (26) - Cowboy

This photo of a cowboy from Gold Coast Australia marks the half way mark of the People 2012 project.

It has been truly a wonderful experience so far to constantly take photos to complete this project. Hopefully you have been enjoying this project as much as I have.

Sunday Special - A Screw

One thing I love about Art is when the Artist uses everyday life things or events to portray something abstract and thoughtful.

Instead of chess piece, the Artist uses screws and nuts and even golden eggs as pieces on a chess cloth. Don’t belittle the small things in life. They are usually the key in holding big items together.

People 2012 (25) - Surfer

Just returned from the sunny Gold Coast Australia. The most famous place in Gold Coast is the Surfers’ Paradise. And of course the most famous sports has to be surfing!

In fact, there are more shops selling surf boards than selling any other sports related equipment.

How I wish I can surf like this man… And to do so when the temperature is about 15 degree celsius, he must be quite a Surfer.

People 2012 (24) - Smoker

I have always wanted to take a photo of a smoker. But it seems a bit rude point my camera at someone who is enjoying his moment.

SO I photograph my own Father!

Sunday Special - Cassette Tapes

Cassette tapes are a thing of the past. But how many of us can still remember the fun we had rewinding the tapes with our pencil?

People 2012 (23) - Children DJ

To entertain kids is a difficult job. I think you have to be a kid in heart to be able to connect with them, get their attention, and get them to response to you. This man did a great job, playing kids’ music and songs, working the crowd up and got the kids to reply his questions spontaneously. Great job!
