thx chris... i guess for me it's really gradually putting into practice what i have read so much about photography over the years, and trying to visualise whether the photo presents a new way or an artistic way of looking at things. one of the goals of APAD for me was to simplify the image as much as possible. be as minimalistic as possible. (AngelZhou will tell me it's post-minimalism, i'm sure!) at the end of the day, you should be your own harshest critic. don't be afraid to trash most of your shots in pursuit of one that you will like to hang on your living room wall as art. and in pursuing your art with dogged persistence, your shooting will definitely improve.

i see a strong focus and development of personal 'style' that is recognisably 'Zaren'. that comes from someone who's consistently striving to push his/her personal boundaries further!

YES SIR!
=) i guess it alot about developing the eye to see as well as the mental imagery of how the photo should turn out to the desired outcome? =)

Say, just wondering, would you like to write for a magazine?

yup, it's post minimalism! XD
Zaren already knew me. I always make such a big fuzz of usage of 'art genre' actually. I just feel that those art people ( be it artist, art critic, etc ) they go through a long way to introduce their style. I find it a bit unfair to just anyhow use.
It's not like doing lousy out of focus picture and call it abstract! Or accidentaly distorting the perspective and to called it Surrealism. I know most people here mature enough not to use art genre to cover up flaw however yes, i kinda nitpick on it =p
And zaren, I really enjoy your work! My favourite, still, is the human abstract picture.
