Gong Xi Fa Cai! Hansel, back in Toronto.

It has been one week since our return to Toronto. During this time, Hansel and Jamie are adjusting back to the Winter cold. Took the opportunity to dust off my camera (and the Pentax Super Takumar 50mm F1.4) and capture some pictures of Hansel  at 11 months of age.

Singapore Food

In the short time I was in Singapore, I savored some of my favorite (and affordable) local dishes. Here is a sampling.

On Vacation :)

I am off to Singapore from Dec 14 till Jan 13, 2012. All packed and ready to go see the family. Expect pictures of Singapore in the coming posts.

Hansel at 8 months

Hansel is a playful boy and has learnt to crawl recently. At 8 months, he is definitely an attention seeker. Also, he smiles and  laughs readily when teased. Pictures courtesy of Kangwei which I cropped and enhanced with AnalogColor.

Bombardier Open House

Bombardier is a manufacturer of a large range of regional and business aircraft including the Learjet range. Bombardier also supplies shorter range aircrafts to commercial carriers such as Air Canada and Westjet. I took this opportunity to try the Contax Carl Zeiss Planar T* 85mm F1.4, as seen in most of the shots here.Wide angle shots were made using the Canon 17-40mm F4.

Christie Antique Show

Today I joined Nick and Rowe in an antique show over at Dundas ON – about an hour’s drive south-west of Toronto. This is a large scale annual event where collectors gather to hunt for bargains. Most of these items were priced sky high. Glass marbles going for $300, tiny porcelain figurines going for $150… Nevertheless, I returned with my largest single post of pictures. Enjoy!
