Burning with desire!

I'm burning with desire alright... to show you all that I've been up to the last few months. It's really been a fun roller-coaster ride and I haven't had much control of it either. So far I have been stuck in the great marketing world of Apple where we have to wait for new models to arrive instead of having supply when we need. It's worth the wait, just like it'll be worth the wait to see my work from the last couple months. Just wish I could say there has been time to continue work on the website but there hasn't. Take care all, life's an adventure... live it!

Never enough time...

I'm sure anyone visiting is wondering why there are no recent updates. Just to put you IN the picture... I have recently been overwhelmed with over-lapping work and haven't had time, day or night to update and post new photos. Also a moment of silence for my faithful notebook PC which has worked so hard and served me well in a few different countries and of course here, it recently told me it could not do more and died a peaceful death. This has left me in an even more frantic state trying to recover work data, organise a new computer (considering a Mac this time), and yet still deal with one of my busiest weeks so far (not much sleep lately). Thanks to all those helping me out. I have never had so many offers of help, it's been amazing...

So, definitely there will be more photos and thoughts soon as there have and will be big fashion shows etc. Please don't hesitate to leave comments or contact me directly on image.mu@gmail.com

Thanks to all so far for their comments and all the locals so far who I'm meeting slowly and are giving me so many compliments. It always means a lot to have my hard work appreciated, hope you keep enjoying. If you have missed my older posts, remember at the bottom of the page there is a link to "Older Posts" or there is an archive tree on the right hand side of the page.

DON'T FORGET to check the photo exhibits at Lake Point, Curepipe... Plaza, Rosehill and Craft Market, Caudan... The amateur collection is really great and a must see. Don't miss it.

These guys have been cookin up some wicked tunes for y'all. It's fresh and full of style. And the crowd is lovin it. Respect...

Architecture, inside and out

So much skill and design goes into creating a home, it's only right that it be captured to show the passion that breathed life into a simple building. Thanks Alexandre Koenig for his talent, and to the others out there creating new and fresh designs. I'm inspired to capture your creations too...

The fire of fashion

Fire-breathing might be my hobby soon, but for now I'll leave it to the pros. Fashion shows and a fashion queen, Kitty shows her personality...

A show to be shown...

Utopia - The Game, a memorable show of light and dance, greatly enhanced by Impact Production but brought to life by Eelco De Jong. Performances were 15, 16 and 17 June but future performances will most probably be in Europe as the show grows. I was happy to be a part of this.

Rodrigues, a part... apart

A trip for work gave me the chance to see a new island, the younger sister to Mauritius in fact. Close enough to travel in 1.5hrs but once there they feel like years apart. It's a tranquil island, very simple and relaxing, with beauty all around in the land the sea and the people.

Nature versus everything else

Nature gives us a free show to watch everyday, no cover charge, no membership fees, only asking for a little respect. Of course when man-made structures have been created and fallen under the test of time they can create a new view for us to see, all we have to do is look.

Ah, that decisive moment

Many things happen right before our eyes and we don't even notice how priceless or timeless those instances can be. Capturing them isn't easy, but sometimes one can sense a certain interesting moment before it occurs, there are signs. It's like learning a new language but knowing what to look for is half the fun, being there in that instance is priceless and so rewarding. There is such a difference in having the time to create and shape a scene, compared to being there with only that one golden chance, easily missed just by blinking. I live for those moments.
