I begin this hobby in November '03 when I bought a Canon 300D. I shoot mostly butterflies and insects, although I do indulge in landscapes and people shots once in a while. Here's a buttefly I shot recently and I hope you like it:

    Hi David, Singapore is a concrete jungle Laughing.gif. Here's a shot a sunset. The low buildings in the foreground are light industrial zone. And then miles of highrise flats that we live in.

    Thank you Shepsmom, Skippy and Awais. Yes we have a nice butterfly park, zoo and bird park Laughing.gif. But I prefer shooting in the wild, so I frequent the forest reserves in our Central Catchment Area and Pulau Ubin, a tiny island at the eastern tip of Singapore. The Common Tiger was shot in Ubin.
