The aerial view of the Sapa paddy fields are beautifully crafted to impress the eye. :)

Exasperation
To a gardener there is nothing more exasperating than a hose that just isn't long enough.

All It Takes is a Little Something...
A sweet.
A smile.
A hug.
A little love from you...
All it takes is a little something to make a child feel appreciated.

Through the Eyes of the Innocent One
The few wonders of the world only exist while there are those with the sight to see them.

The Paddy Boy
Life in the Paddy Fields, originally uploaded by haechoo.
Whatever they grow up to be, they are still our children, and the one most important of all the things we can give to them is unconditional love. Not a love that depends on anything at all except that they are our children.

Choices
It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.

St Joseph's Cathedral
Tried to photograph this majestic church in a different way. Overexposed the highlights. Vietnamese masses are very melodic and just being there amongst the Vietnamese during mass gave me little goosebumps. But the interesting thing is that there is gender segregation whereby the guys sit on the left and the ladies sit on the right. How strange but fascinating. :)
After mass, met this sweet little girl and her brother and mom outside the church. She was really shy when I tried to take a shot of her. Her mom had to coax her into position before I managed to get a beautiful shot of her (below). Too bad I did not get their contacts to send her picture over.

A Pause
Picspirations will be taking a short 3-week break as I'll be away travelling in Vietnam and China. But there will be nice pictures after this break for sure!
Take care in the meantime!

Spiralling
This seems to be the law of progress in everything we do; it moves along a spiral rather than a perpendicular; we seem to be actually going out of the way, and yet it turns out that we were really moving upward all the time.

Baptismal Joys
My first formal event shoot. Baby Joshua got baptised two weeks ago and what better way to capture the joys of this sacred rite than through the art of photography.
Will attach a slideshow in a couple of days to come. :)
