Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you - by the Carpenters
- Have not been going out with my dear for a nice lovely walk for a long long time since we came back to China. Today it's a lovely nice-weather day, with cooling breeze, warm sunshine and blue blue sky for a perfect lovely stroll in the park with my dear and as we strolled along............this bird appeared. And this jingle played in my mind....Close to you. (captured this at the Fairy Lake Botanical Garden, Shenzhen, China. )
- Recently indulged myself so much in the lovely music of Susan Wong. Dubbed as Best Kept Secret of Asia, she has outsold most other better known singers in the entire Asia. Listen to her cover version of the hit songs that made the breakthrough hit for Carpenters and shot them to stardom. Perhaps you might enjoy this song as much as I do, here : My Blog

Love is in the air , everywhere I look around
Love is in the air , everywhere I look around
Love is in the air , every sight and every sound....
- Eversince I came to this Middle Kingdom, I have been looking frantically around for glittering lava lamps. I am so fascinated by the graceful movement of the liquid and the glittering ornament. The 4 years of searching ended last 2 months, when I found this lamp on a great sale. It's a golden yellow lava lamp with tiny glittering golden dust in it. Didn't notice that love exist in it, until I put on my 50mm lens to capture it. Love is just everywhere....if only we look at it in a lovey dovey perspective.
Happy Bokeh Wednesday!!!!

Star of The Orient
Star of The Orient
A new star is born in the world of Indigenous music.
I was introduced to Gurrumul's music recently by a good friend of mine.
Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu is a musical genius. His beautiful voice will never leave you as he sings the songs of his Gumatj country. His solo performances are a rare treat and should not be missed. With the release his first solo album, Geoffrey highlights the tremendous talent he has to offer Indigenous music in Australia, and indeed, the world.
One of the most important and beautiful Indigenous albums yet recorded.
By the way, Gurrumul is blind since birth. Check out his songs and videos here.

- These are my favorite glass ornament and gem stones collected from my trips and vacations. A tribute to Gurrumul for his wonderful voice!
