" A child looking into her mother's eye, signaling and asking for love" It prompted me to really ponder about what it is that I love about street photography, and why so many of us fell in love with it. 

Seeing the world through the eyes of a child, We really can see the magic in everything.  A Child that has no worries in this world besides a hunger for the love and attention of his or her parents. What do you see when you look into the eyes of a newborn? Children are Born Innocent. 

As an obstetrician, I used to observe and look into the eyes of babies delivered in the hospital, I saw trustfulness, curiosity, and joyfulness. I saw no deviousness, meanness, or selfishness. They want only to be loved, to learn, and to contribute.

We live in a world that is continuously exciting, surprising, and unpredictable.  it is my passion to take up the responsibility to document and preserve the moments, the seconds, and the minutes that would be lost to the passage of time. I am able to do this with the Olympus lens 40-150mm f4-5.6 as it is super light and portable for traveling. The photo was taken at Alisan township, a recreation site is situated at about 2,200 meters above sea level. Its cloudy mid-elevation temperate climate has a mean annual temperature of 10.6 ºC. Thanks to the weather-sealed Olympus camera that I bring along, which able to continue my adventure with no worries.

The Initiation

Rise of Olympus   When I got my first camera back in 2012, Olympus OMD EM5, I was enamored by the beauty the world has to offer. It is the first camera in an OM-Digital lineup that will run alongside the PEN series and, according to Olympus, its Four Thirds models. At first, I started shooting without any knowledge of photography. As I was shooting my way through the process and garnering a love for the art form, I started taking self-portraits and photos of friends. Of course, the Auto mode on the camera was the only thing  I knew to play around with. Unfortunately, the result I got is not up to my expectation. I was disappointed and realizing that was what photography about. I never go beyond Auto mode on my camera. Olympus has fallen I did explore other goodies offered on my first camera. I did play around with Art filters (ART) mode a couple of times. ART filters offer one of the most comprehensive selections of filters available. At that time, my favorite ART filters are ...

The Infinite Battle Of Olympus

The Infinite battle of Olympus – The legend lives on. Moving forward is part of life. It is a norm we have to adapt in the coming years after the war against the Covid-19 Virus. Yes, It is hard breaking news for the Olympus camera user after hearing the news this week. Losing a part of the business of a big company is common nowadays. Some are obvious. But, some of the reasons they’re losing money in business are difficult to see. Some blame the configuration and specification of the product, some just ignore the factual reality of how unique the products are.  Olympus is fighting a different war now. After 84 years in the business, the company adopted an infinite mindset to cope with the extremely severe digital camera market. I considered this is a strategic move by Olympus. It is a game-changer for the company. Olympus never fight to win the war, they fight to continue the war and to survive. Their objective is not to win—the objective is to keep playing, keep perpetuating the g...

Forgiveness

Wuji Tianyuan Temple, Taipei. Taiwan  Google Map ISO-200, f4.5, 1/160s, 32mm  Olympus Pro lens 12-40mm f2.8on Everyone struggles with admitting they’ve done something bad, but denial is how people get themselves into even deeper trouble. I did mistakes in the past. The emotion of guilt lets me know that my actions or behaviors conflict with my values and beliefs. Guilt serves a purpose. Shame does not. I was overwhelmed with guilt,   I was haunted by such feelings even when I haven’t done anything that would generally be regarded as culpable. These feelings of guilt tend to culminate in painful, counter-productive rumination which, in turn, only strengthens the feeling and intensifies my emotional misery. I decided to visit the temple. I believe the only solution to this uncontrollable feeling is to pray to god for an answer. In the vicinity of the temple, I overheard a conversation between a man and a Buddhist monk. The man asked for advice about inner peace. The monk ...
