Dubai International Airport (DXB)

It was my first time outside the Dubai International Airport Terminal 3 arrival/departure hall, this picture was taken at around 1am local time, my first impression - I thought I was in a Disco!

LA by night

I am still learning how to capture night scenes with the correct shutter speed. It was a perfect opportunities for me to put this into practise. LA at night from the hill top of Griffin Observatory.

It's December, it's the official month for Christmas!!
So ..... the magic of Christmas starts here.
For the next couple of days ( well till Christmas ) [HOPEFULLY - if I wasn't too lazy], I'll try to put up pictures featuring 'Christmas'!
Today it's Christmas Tree.

Count down to christmas

It's Thanksgiving day! Turkey Turkey Turkey!
This also means counting down to Christmas!
We had our Christmas lights switching on 15th Nov.
The whole town is full of Christmas spirits now. GREAT!

Fireworks

A little bit of history here.
What does November mean do you? shorter daylight? Colder weather? Wet? Remembrance Day? For me it has got to be Guy Fawkes Night.
Guy Fawkes Night is an annual celebration on the evening of 5 November. It marks the downfall of the Gunpowder Plot of 5 November 1605, in which a number of Catholic conspirators, including Guy Fawkes, attempted to destroy the Houses of Parliament, in London, capital of England.
In the United Kingdom, celebrations take place in towns and villages across the country in the form of both private and civic events. They involve fireworks displays and the building of bonfires on which traditionally "guys" are burnt.

This picture was taken in a friend's "Bon Fire party" on 7th Nov. Not the conventional fountain-typed pattern, it has got the scatted stars effects.
