These are a few pictures I clicked for fun. They are by no means photos to learn photography from. Most of them were clicked in a hurry. Enjoy the photos while you're here. And Kelsey, I really got scared of your black-mail at the IB Weblog. I've kept my promise, peruse these photographs as much as you like! I'm no professional photographer, but I do enjoy clicking at times. My corny comments appear below each photograph.

The castle at the clay-making tent. Truly majestic.

Guen showing off her awesome volleyball skills to me in front of a beautiful kite-skied background.

Same thing. Tony's trying to perform some ball-balancing stunts.

Beautiful picture, but the evening sunset has cast a shadow. Tony, you were supposed to look at the camera while I was clicking.

Those tall people! Dish!

Someone submit this picture to be framed beside the Mona Lisa. What a subtle smile. The next Mr. Canada!

One of the nicest photos I've taken. The hood of one of the tents, front of a majestic overcast sky.

Oooh, its Mr. Handsome again in his car. At one point, my camera was crying "No! Not Kevin's photograph again! I've had enough!" Look at the background, and you'll see my reflection.

While we were volunteering, I used my "break time" to capture the true beauty of Vancouver's Spring. Hey! Its at least a better hobby than hanging out at the Hair Dying tent infinitely. Cough! Photography is one of my all-time hobbies after Chess. You see how the ground is at an angle? I learnt that trick from a photographer who photographs teenage girl models for a living. Really.

Hmm... I had thought that the first "Key Volunteer" picture had "shaken" and didn't turn out well. So I clicked another one to be on the safe side. Thankfully, both of them turned out really cool. Kevin, you must frame these two photographs and hang them in the middle of your Study.

This is one of my all time favorites. Remember how I was talking about getting rid of extraneous objects in your photographs? I failed that rule in this one. I wonder who the guy in red to the right is. Pretty handsome fellow he was. Rachael, if only you would have shown me your face instead of shying away like that! And guess who's in the background? Its Kevin holding his camera and taking a picture of me! Co-incidentally, even I am present in his photo and holding a camera. Weird...

A fantastic silhouette with lush green grass as the background. I love the contrasting colours. And its also very pleasing to see both Peter and Rachael smiling. I like happy, content, cheerful and smiling people!

Woah! What an amazing photograph. Whoever took this photograph is a genius! I shouldn't be praising myself, but don't you think a little bit of self-advertisement is necessary? No seriously, looking at it from photographic terms, this picture is perfect! It turned out better than I had anticipated. The colours simply go hand-in-hand. Another 5 golden points for me.

Horribly taken, but captures Peter's green hair nicely. I liked the fat lady on the left. She was cheerful and asked me if I wanted to dye my hair. I said "No Thanks," like a good boy. Something wanted me to ask her if she was "Mama's Child" or "Papa's Child." But I stopped myself in time.
