Vintage Kodak camera

Vintage collection in Grant’s garage

The story traces back to one year ago when I was shopping around for vintages stuffs for my wedding. I found Grant’s vintage “treasure box” (the size of a garage) a year ago and ever since then, Hero has been fascinating about Grant’s collection of vintage tools and wooden

Cable car in San Francisco

The journey of getting a camera, ok… and lenses too…

I seems that I had never talked about technical stuffs behind the photos, because I had no gears worth bla until just recent, lol… This is the rare ones that I write about cameras and lenses since I am in the thickness of it, and since the journey that I

Extra thankful

I love the darker cozier evenings of December and the simplicity of a candle, a clean house, a huge couch, and a movie to cry or laugh about. The year-end holidays always make me feeling extra thankful, thinking that in the past eleven and

holiday street lights

Lights in our pocket

While a hard film to watch at times and a sad film beyond measure, in a strange way it is comforting to me. I couldn’t stop watching again and again the scene (I think it’s the best scene of “Rabbit Hole”) where Becca
