Helen!
Very good to have you up here!
After we have made fun of you with all the cartoon-style photo, now it's you turn to have your shot!
Firstly, i must say that your sepia rendition of Ms Ngoc Han looking demurely downwards is beautiful!
The style of PP, the composition, the mood - all oozed an Italian-ness about them!

limwhow, great montage. :thumbsup:

AlexK, thank you for your kind words.
There are many deficiencies in my PP and the way I arranged the photos.
I'm still exploring and learning with each day.

Welcome Helen,

Next time you will see them using laptop.

Hello divinemoment, yes, good idea! next time i will bring along my laptop..surely there will
be some great photos

The old lady seems like ex-model and knows the knack of posturing. Or perhaps Adrian has given her prior training or a resounding warning to her that his troopers has high standard.

Joke aside - Her look reflects she has seen a lot and been through a rugged lifestyle. Anyone knows her age?

BTW, I've sign up the Juizhaigou

Its because both of you go, it spurred me on to sign up mah. But I still have to fill up 7 forms for my CO to approve. Don't care already lah. Sign first, get ear chop later.

I got to start work in another half an hour's time.
I thought I'd just put up this picture of Sapa on the second evening.
Anyone forgotten about this scene... hehehe...

Please pardon the noise.
It's the high ISO lah...
