I found myself with some spare time in between appointments on Saturday. So what does one do? Obviously walk around and take photos. I walked the same streets that I usually walk by, but this time, I paused at the different street corners. I took in all the sites that I’m normally walking too quickly in between to notice. As I started taking some photos, I took in the vibrant colors on buildings, the long window shutters, the tree shadows on buildings and the lush greens that invaded the tight city spaces.
I’m hoping that this month, through this slice of life challenge, I will take a moment to stop, breathe in my surroundings, and reflect on all that is around me through my words and photos. I might need to take more long walks with just my camera and myself. I might need to reflect on my classroom and job as a teacher. Or, I might need to just write and see what takes form.
Here are some photos from my walk by Duxton Hill, Singapore.

You are so talented for finding interesting perspectives with your camera. I love them all, but that last one, WOW!
Thanks Elsie!! 🙂 Still working on becoming a better photography…
I agree with Elsie, I LOVE your last photo! The colorful building juxtaposed with the shadow of the tree is very powerful. I’ve lived in Malaysia for 15 years now, and you have reminded me to take notice of what I have stopped seeing. Thank you so much for sharing.
Love the teal building!! Beautiful! I find you see things differently when you look through the lens of a camera. Nice job!
Thanks for sharing this. I had this idea in my mind that SIngapore is all high rises and industrial looking buildings. I know better now.
I knew we would be getting pictures!
