It's been raining quite alot here in Singapore as well. It seems that the bugs don't seem to come out after the rain. However i managed a few interesting shots.

Firstly, I managed to put a big tick off my Macro most wanted list. Presenting to you the Ogre Faced spider. It got its name due to its resemblance to mythical creature! This spider actually makes a web to be casted on its prey!

please let me pretend that it is 2005 for moment and that tsubi/ksubi are legit pair of jeans for supertalk.

after a pick up shift in a shop i used to run i went over to my my best friend's house as it was his birthday we burnt some trees, and then his son thor [his name is loki but after finding out the fate of that norse deity insists on being called thor] asked me to play a homeless dude for his youtube series.

later on went for a long walk with my lady and ended up taking pics of us at my local park.

Spent the day in San Francisco today, hanging out with my cousin -- who lives there. I miss SF/Oakland/Berkeley tremendously...

I will be back there in about 1.5 years. The Castro is my favorite San Francisco neighborhood...Enjoy Part One.
