Decided to post some of my humble photos over the past few months (and hopefully more shots in the future) here, hope to get more comments for improvement. =)

most (or All ;p) of the angles are not new, inspired by many photos posted here in CS or in Flickr and hence tried to reproduce them / produce my own versions. :D

i will start off with some shots of CBD, C&C are most welcomed. =D​

thanks for the comment! any photo in particular? i always shoot in RAW, and adjust the WB, exposure and crop etc in post, but will try to keep those to minimal and try to get as many things correct as possible at the point of shooting, but of cause for those panorama shots i need to stitch them in software. :)

I like this, perhaps you could consider cropping the buildilng on the right out.
thanks for dropping by! :) this photo actually took me quite some time to decide how to crop, i just took a second look on this and cropped away the building on the right, and a bit of bottom and left, i feel that the right side is a bit too tight, i think that was why i decided to leave the building there, what do you think? :)

I think it is better than the last version. Having a slight imbalance in the photo (it doesn't seem that way to me though) is much more preferable for me than having a distraction at the edge.

ahh.. i get what you mean, though i still feel the right side is a bit tight, but yes the eyes will not get pulled away to the building and can focus on the Fullerton itself, thanks! :)

These are quite possibly the best rainbow photos I've seen in a while, simply because you have involved the surrounding context. Many times, photographers are too engrossed with rainbows, they've forgotten that the surrounding context is also a critical factor in a composition.
