Suizenji Gardens

Posted on 19 Dec 200929 Dec 2010   by CY

Suizenji Gardens (水前寺公園) was one of the two sites in Kumamoto I really wanted to take a look, and I was fortunate to manage some free time today to pay a visit. The park is considered one of the four

Meals with a View

Posted on 18 Dec 200929 Dec 2010   by CY

I’ve remarked on this blog here that Restaurant Matsuri at my hotel enjoys a magnificent view of the castle both by day and night. I haven’t been able to show pictures of this from within the restaurant itself so far,

Kumamoto in HDR – Part 1

Posted on 18 Dec 200912 Mar 2010   by CY

Wrote this post last Sunday, but posting it now.:) One thing I haven’t done much of when traveling is to take high dynamic range photographs. So, I was determined this time to take as much as I could. The Kumamoto

Droolmeister

Posted on 25 Oct 20095 Apr 2010   by CY

You’d be surprised at the one thing we burn through faster for Hannah than anything else – and it’s not diapers. It’s tissue paper! One thing she does a lot when she’s in her cutesy mode is drool, especially all

Swimming Lessons

Posted on 19 Oct 20095 Apr 2010   by CY

Ling had picked up a wet suite for Hannah from Vivocity recently, so had been planning to bring Hannah down for a pool side dip with me along to take pictures. Here’s the outcome of the second pool outing this

Belly Comfy?

Posted on 16 Oct 20095 Apr 2010   by CY

We’ve observed of late that Hannah’s been increasingly sleeping while lying on her belly, and when she’s woken up, would typically be using her arms to prop herself up from bed. Her arms sure are getting stronger at that –

JBP Revisited

Posted on 7 Oct 20095 Apr 2010   by CY

After our visit to the stunning Bali Bird Park last year, I’d been planning to visit our own Jurong Bird Park but kept putting it off after Hannah came into the picture. I finally got to it today – on

Baby Lessons: Sitting Upright

Posted on 5 Oct 20095 Apr 2010   by CY

Ling has been giving Hannah lessons in sitting upright, and she sure is learning quick! Just a week ago she could only sit on the living room sofa with the support of cushions. This week she can about sit properly

Girl by Poolside

Posted on 2 Oct 20095 Apr 2010   by CY

I’ve started a period of leave to help out with Hannah at home before the new semester begins soon. After her morning feed this morning, Hannah looked alert enough for us to bring her down to the poolside for a

Photographing Hannah

Posted on 28 Sep 20095 Apr 2010   by CY

I’ve blogged about the difficulty faced when taking pictures of Hannah. When she’s interacting with us and isn’t in one of her grumbling moods, she’d coo delightfully, giggle and generally be cute. It’s easy to take pictures of her being

Sunday Afternoon

Posted on 27 Sep 20095 Apr 2010   by CY

The weather here has been awfully warm and humid, made even the more unpleasant by the light haze caused by the seasonal land burning in Indonesia this last few weeks. Things are very slightly better where we’re at in the

Hannah and Mummy

Posted on 19 Sep 20095 Apr 2010   by CY

And the second selection of pictures from over the weekend: I was trying to get pictures of Ling kissing Hannah on her forehead. Hannah was a little more cooperative in her moods then too, though she seemed more intrigued by
