The face of King Charles III on a stamp.
It's the first stamp I've received with him on it rather than Queen Elizabeth II.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :)

Strobist: AB1600 with gridded 60X30 softbox camera left. Triggered by Cybersync.
One of my favourite parts of London (l lived nearby in Bloomsbury for a few years). The street has a slight feeling of Madrid, particularly in the summer. Lots of restaurants and cafes with outside seating. The church on the left is somehow reminiscent of the ending scenes of Hitchcock's Vertigo.
Photography is relatively new to me. I used it as a tool to document the things I saw during my time as an architecture student. I got more interested in 2005 as I was so overwhelmed by the view of Shanghai from my room at the Grand Hyatt, similar to this.
I soon got more enthusiastic to capture urban vistas and interior shots of the hotels I've stayed as a self-proclaimed hotel addict. I was then using my beloved pocket camera, Leica C-Lux 1 but soon realized that discrimination does exist, because alot of flickrian do not take you seriously if you are a pocket camera owner. I always want to prove that it is not the camera that matters, because if you have the eye, skill, passion and artistic value, you could produce good works too.
So in 2008 I took my first shot with a very humble Olympus E-500 DSLR just to get more serious in photography, but also I want to satisfy my dream to take long exposure shots of busy roads and intersection.. those beautiful light trails. I finally did it.
Over the past year, I have been so fortunate to get alot of offers to publicize and commercialize some of my photos, including offers to be the cover and feature article shots for numerous inflight magazines, including Singapore Airlines; and the most recent from the Travel & Leisure magazine, in partnership with CNN. Some of my photos have been featured in online news, online travel publication, and even a presentation for KPF at Harvard University in the past. But most of the times I declined those offers because I do not intend to get into the foray of commercialism; and most of my shots include properties that might have copyrights, i.e: hotels and buildings, so I might need to get permissions.
As with the recent invitation from the Getty Images that flatters me, I got into the same problem. But whether or not I'm participating in it, I would like to express my gratitute and excitement to have achieved this along the way.

Beta feedback : Completed / Top ideas / Hot ideas
__________________________________________________________________________
Beta is a test preview of the change that is getting ready to be implemented soon. It can be for a limited group of flickr members, intended to seek feedback and correct faults ( if any), before it is made public.
Change is good and public has always welcomed good changes. The preference for Windows XP by most people even after the introduction of Vista is a classic example of public acceptance. The public liked and preferred the predecessor ( Windows XP ) and the follower ( Windows 7 and Windows 8 ) versions of Vista. A change is good and often gladly welcomed by public, if it provides more utilities and user friendliness, without depriving even a single advantage of the predecessor.
The Beta version is unacceptable to the majority of Flickr users* ( who happened to experience it ) , because it's not user friendly and has only disadvantages to mention. *Please check the Beta feedback : Completed / Top ideas / Hot ideas
The layout itself is a disaster. Please check : Try our new photo experience beta / Comment box
However they try, it's quite evident that it's impossible to provide more space for descriptions, comment box, and comments; not to mention comments with pictures , group invites / awards. The more they try to fix it, the more cumbersome it becomes. The buddy icons now appear as dots making the page more unaesthetic than what you see in the earlier pictures of beta . They are desperately trying to make it appealing and user friendly, which is literally impossible with the proposed layout .
It's a big challenge for the programmers to try find means to provide more space in a vertical column which is already cramped.
Is it possible to make a rugby stadium inside a 100 square feet ground ?

My Photoblog- My Third Eye...!
When astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti received her first assignment — to spend a record 200 days aboard the International Space Station — she knew she wanted to document the opportunity of a lifetime through photography. The resulting images are breathtaking.

"CONCEPT"
Noun
1. an idea or thought, esp. a generalized idea of a thing or class of things; abstract notion
2. a. an original idea, design, etc.; conception
b. a central or unifying idea or theme
Word origin
conceptus
Webster’s New World College Dictionary
Conceptual art is a form of art in which the concept is paramount to the visual or sensory components of the finished artwork. This type of art emphasizes the importance of an idea or concept over technique and aesthetic, largely used to express the abstract. It emerged as a movement in the early 1960s reaching into the mid-1970s. Conceptual art can look or be nearly anything the artist decides. Unlike other forms of art, it is not defined by physical forms, but rather the foundation of a concept that serves as the engine of creating art.
