Singapore under the coronavirus
流感笼罩下的新加坡

On January 23 this year, a visitor from Wuhan was diagnosed with Singapore ’s first coronavirus. Since then, the epidemic has worsened. At present (April 16), the number of new cases in Singapore has reached a new peak, with 447 cases in a single day.

The Singapore government has taken a series of measures, including all non-essential outdoor activities to be stopped. Since most people working from home now, I found that after office hours, there seem to be more people exercising in the park.

As outdoor sports are allowed, I‘m able to continue my routine cycling. I tried to photograph along the way. Tourist attraction, city centre, shopping mall, food centre and the main road I have passed through, all are now becoming sparsely populated places.

今年1月23日一名来自武汉的旅客被确诊为新加坡第一宗冠状肺炎后,疫情就不断恶化。当下(4月16日)新加坡新增病例再创高峰,单日就有447病例。

新加坡政府出台了一系列措施,要求人们不要外出,所有不必要的户外活动都得停止。由于大部分人们现在都在家里工作,我发现在公园运动的人似乎多了些。

由于户外运动是允许的,我得以继续我的自行车运动。一路上我顺手拍下路过的场景。旅游胜地,市中心,购物中心,美食中心和我所经过的主要道路,现在都变成了人烟稀少的地方。

Tear Sheet: Lianhe Zaobao 2nd February 2020 - A glimpse of city life in North Korea
剪报:联合早报 2020年2月2日:《朝鲜抓拍》

Pictures were taken with Sony A7Rm3 with Sony 16-35mm f/4, Sony 70-200mm F/4 and Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8 lenses.

North Korea is a disconnected country. There is no internet connection, no free flow of information. Apparently, there seems to be a lack of consumerism. In the centre of the city, the local people appear to be well-dressed and live in a slow-paced lifestyle.

Travel in this country can only be done via a guided tour with the services of the local guides. Visitors are not allowed to leave the hotel or the group during the local tour. Defying these regulations may put oneself at risk. Visitors’ passports are kept by the local guide during the stay of their visit. On the first day of our tour, the local guide has specifically told us not to take a photo of soldiers, construction sites or military areas. We have also been instructed repeatedly to ask for permission before taking photographs.

Faced with all these limitations and control I have attempted to capture the moments of the street life and people’s emotional expression in their natural setting.

最近电视台播出的韩剧《爱的迫降》里的女主角尹世利因滑翔伞事故不得不迫降到北朝鲜,展开了一段朝鲜南北两地的故事。北朝鲜是个封闭的国家,我最近去了一趟,没抵达之前脑里就一直问着几个问题:老百姓的生活是怎样?年少的一代的成长又是怎样?这国家的建设如何等等。

我参加的八日游行程是从北京直飞平壤,期间北上板门店,南下古城开城,往东去了金刚山与马息岭滑冰度假村。一路上我所拍摄的照片都是在地陪带领下快拍的。我在经过的城市,街道,观光点一瞥人们的生活与神态。

我无法从容地拍摄,也不可能完整的记录,但我还是尽量地捕抓一些文化、地景与人们常态的生活。一趟走了下来,发现人们的一举一动都体现了他们对领袖的敬畏,对自己严格的自律,所到之处一切都井然有序。我发现我的瞬间摄影记录展示了一个明显的要点,那就是无论你生活在什么制度底下,人性中的真善美体现出来的家庭的伦理、亲情观念、童真、对爱情的向往都是是一样的。

Street Portraits shooting on the last day of Pig Year.
祝愿鼠年为您带来幸福年

On the last day of Pig Year, I decided to do some candid photography in the market near my home. I brought along a Sony A9 mounted with my favourite Sony GM lens 24mm f/1.4. I have always enjoyed photographing stranger at very close distance. In fact, I noticed that most of the time, people did not know they were being photographed. The whole process is instantaneous, impulsive and improvisational. Thanks to the excellent autofocus system of the camera, occasionally I have also shot from the hip. I took all the pictures in Raw and Color and then converted into my favourite high contrast B&W in Photoshop.

在“猪年”的最后一天,我决定到家附近的市场上拍摄。我带来上了装有我最喜欢的 Sony GM 24mm f / 1.4镜头的 A9相机。我一直很喜欢在很近的距离拍摄陌生人。实际上,我注意到大多数时候,人们并不知道自己正在被拍照。整个过程是瞬时,冲动和即兴的。得益于出色的相机自动对焦系统,偶尔我也可盲摄。我以Raw和Color拍摄了所有照片,然后在Photoshop中转换为我喜爱的高反差黑白照片。

Tear Sheet: Lianhe Zaobao 24th November 2019 - Orang Laut in Johore Bahru
剪报:联合早报 2019年11月24日:《与现代海人的相遇》

All photographs were mainly taken with Sony A7R2 + Lens 28mm f/2.

About 1,000 Orang Laut living in the settlement villages of Johor Bahru. They are also known as Orang Seletar as they lived around Seletar River Singapore till the 1970s. Currently, they depend on the sea for their livelihood. I have visited these villages several times and recorded some of their present living conditions.

1819年当莱佛士来到新加坡时,他发现这里是一片森林,稀稀落落的土著“海人”(Orange Laut)居住在河边的浮脚屋。他们因为都聚居在实里达河口,因此被称为“实里达海人”(Orang Seletar)。新加坡独立后,这些海人往北迁移到对岸柔佛州靠海的地方,继续过着原来以海为生的捕鱼生活。

  
我是与朋友到新山游玩时,无意中闯入现代“海人”的生活圈子。后来和当地一位渔民协会华人领袖有过多次接触,开始对海人的历史、生活有多一点了解。原来早在五六十年代,实里达海人就与当时住在同一带的华人有来往,后来一些华族男子也娶了海人为妻。

  
1970年代开始,因为要继续过着海上生活,他们都北迁到柔佛。据说,目前大约有1000名海人居住在柔佛州靠海的村落,他们自称为Orang Asli Seletar(实里达原住民),主要是靠捕鱼、螃蟹、蚌等为生,并开始把孩子送到当地的政府学校受教育。部分海人还有亲戚、家人是新加坡公民,在新加坡居住、工作和受教育。

Sony RX100vi - A fantastic camera for traveling
超小相机的使用体验

I have an opportunity to test the Sony RX100vi camera during a 2-day trip to Muar, Malaysia. This camera has many specifications same as the latest mode RX100vii. Equipped with 24-200mm lens, I’m very pleased with its sharpness, color and image quality. To make it simple to focus and shooting, I have used the following settings:

- Raw format, AWB, Aperture Priority and Spot-L metering.
- ISO between 100 to 1,000
- For quick focus, I used three methods:
- (a) Eye-AF: central button (with AF-C and Wide focus area);
- (b) Use “touch” for quick focus whenever needed - especially for landscape shooting (with AF-S).
- (c) Use Flexible Lock-on for tracking (with AF-C).

参加了国家博物馆义工团两天一夜的麻坡人文历史旅行团,我带上了非常轻小的 Sony RX100vi 相机,其面积比手机还要小得多。除了参观一些历史地点、会馆、庙宇之外,也到渔村、老街、小城参观当地人的特殊行业例如木船制作、传统棺材制作、橡胶加工等。这小玩意儿成像的色彩与质感扎扎实实, 是我原先完全没有料到的。

Landscape Photography Bali
与巴厘岛风景对话

Just returned from an 8-day trip to Bali, it has been quite a while since I lasted visited this beautiful religious island.

With the help of a local guide, we visited several beaches and mountains. This time we focused on landscape photography, especially applying the long exposure techniques. My main gears are Sony A7r3 and G-master lens 24mm f/1.4 (I like it for its outstanding colour and image quality).

I decided not to use the traditional square filter and chose to use the magnetic filter adapter for quick action. Also, I utilised HDR multiple exposures to eliminate the need to use a graduated filter.

刚完成了一次巴厘岛风光之旅,八天下来每天起早摸黑的,就是为了拍摄黎明与黄昏大自然的色彩、光影与气氛。旅途中不断爬山下海,多次需越过高高低低的岩石与珊瑚石群,站在水深至膝盖的海面拍摄,海浪从下身一波接一破不断的冲击过来,此时正庆幸自己简化了拍摄设备,尤其是采用了磁铁ND减光滤镜,取代了又大又烦的传统的方形滤镜。

置身于大自然中观海与山,感受自然生命力的搏动与气息,我不想只让影像再现, 而是通过“预视” (visualisation)构思所要的成像,再应用机械的设定与滤镜的配搭,来达到所要的影像效果。

这是一次快乐、满足之旅!

骑脚车来到海边,海岸边整齐的行人道有人在跑步。行人道的一边是高级公寓,来到一出口处有一位印度保安人员坐在公寓围栏的门口守着。在门口斜对面有座跨海石桥,此刻正是黄昏时分,景色迷人。我停下脚车,架起相机拍了几张照片。这仁兄好奇地对我微笑,我自然地对他打了个招:“哇!你在这里工作每天都可欣赏美景!”他突然冒出个苦笑。我有点尴尬,一瞬间顿悟了一个道理:对一个地方有所归宿才会有真与持久的触动!
