Back when we could travel: London trip 2019 by Canaan Ng

I swear I still take photos. Lots of life changes in the last two years that lead to a different amount of shooting and time to post stuff. I’ve learned a lot from my wife about not posting everything onto social media and just living life. I’ve also been busy fighting GAS (gear acquisition syndrome). It’s a real thing. Look it up. For my trip in London, England last October, I traveled light with a Fujifilm XT-2, with kit lens 18-55mm f2.8-4 and my sony rx100 mkiii (for those selfies! and ninja photos). Here is a selection of my favorite pictures from London. My ideal vacation is to walk around a new place and looking to capture beautiful images. There is something about being in a different place, and capturing the things you see and experience. I wanted to share these images so you can see some of the things that drew my attention. Some were because of beautiful lighting, some were because of my nerdiness, some are from beautiful architecture, some were because there was a person standing in the right place.

Hong Kong by Canaan Ng

Back in March, I got to go back to Hong Kong with Meng-Ling and show her around. Its always a blast to have her to try new activities and to take lots of pictures.

Baltimore and Annapolis by Canaan Ng

During my 4 months in Philly, I decided not to go to Washington DC since I had been there with my family before when I was little. I decided to go to Baltimore and Annapolis, two cities I have never been. I only had one day in Baltimore and spent most of it at The National Aquarium. Saw lots of beautiful ocean life and even watched a few dolphin shows. I also observed lots of wild children in their natural habit with their anxious and loving parents following them around. After Baltimore, I was able to visit my friend's hometown, Annapolis. When she first told me where she was from, and I searched up the photos, I knew I wanted to go visit to see the fall colours. I am so glad I did make it there. Annapolis had a very colonial feel with all the red brick buildings and I was able to try some delicious Crab cake burgers. 

NYC through my Eyes by Canaan Ng

Last October, while I was in Philly, I got a chance to do a day trip to New York City. Besides singing Frank Sinatra "New York New York", I was able to walk around NYC and Central Park and take some pictures. I really like New York because there is so much to see and do. Here are some of my favourites from the day.
