UPDATE: Chinatown mini-docu







An update on the mini-docu. Whatever that you see here are all pictures of actual day to day scenarios. From the elderly sparring over a game of chess to the road side cobbler to a recently retrenched man trawling through the classifieds in search of a job.

Although Singapore is a relatively sanitized country, if you look beyond the surface, you will most certainly still find interesting subjects to shoot. I like to think that what sets a PJ apart from just another casual shooter or an editorial/ fashion photographer is their intent. You set out shooting with a purpose. Sometimes, there isn't necessarily an issue to highlight, but what is most important is that you show up. You show up with a sense of purpose. You become more attuned to the surroundings around you and you observe. Then, the pictures will follow.

That of course is just my personal opinion.

There is no definite way of saying this, and every situation differs from another.
