Ohhh, hi


Another part of mine is here.

I am a HKU Computer Science Ph.D. student, amateur photographer, filmmaking learner, amateur cook, bread lover, etc. I was a boy without a camera. There's no simple way to do such a thing called photography. It is not good pictures that make me a photographer. Life experiences do. All photographers know Ansel Adams' words: we bring to the act of photography all the pictures we have seen, the books we have read, the music we have heard, the people we have loved. For years, I keep taking different styles of photos and enjoy different experiences in the meantime. I never aim at becoming a professional photographer. Camera for me is a tool to learn how to see the world without a camera. The photography itself doesn't interest me. I want only to capture a minute part of reality. In photography, there is a reality so subtle that it becomes more real than reality. Ultimately, photography is just like physics. In both of them, seeking truth becomes a habit. The more they tell you, the less you know.

Keep being a better photographer, as life is so dramatic.
