This is now where I archive my pictures. I don't come to Flickr to browse any more. If you'd like to connect with me send me a tweet on Twitter at @shimmertje8.

If you are hoping to reuse my images, please note that they may not be usable in any context as I do not have model releases for them, or they may contain images which belong to other copyright holders - in which case you may need to seek further permission from third parties.

I generally expect to be paid for the right to use a picture for a commercial project (you are going to charge people for it; it's free but you get financed through advertisements; etc) but feel free to ask anyway.

I take pictures to describe, and to remember. I'm attracted by colour, shapes, shadow and light, or just a fleeting expression on a face.

This site hosts pictures of life in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, Singapore, Australia and Oman, the birds Tinkerbell and Yingshiong, Riamfada, LiBai, Oberon, and Jacky.

I am currently using two cameras: the Panasonic Lumix TZ30 and my Samsung Galaxy S4 for pictures.

Older pictures are from a whole range of cameras, from the original Canon Ixus to cameras from Olympus and Panasonic as well as phone cameras.

I started a number of Flickr groups but no longer maintain them because of the aforementioned difficulty navigating the user interface:
