Photo Featured – World’s Most Delicious Street Food by Travel + Leisure

A Day in Ho Chi Minh City 1

Photo Featured – World’s Most Delicious Street Food by Travel + Leisure

Awesome! Another photo that I took in Ho Chi Minh City during my travels was used in an article – World’s Most Delicious Street Food by Travel + Leisure. The article also appeared as “Street Food 101: A Global Guide” in T+L Magazine May 2012 issue.

My photo was used at http://www.travelandleisure.com/articles/worlds-most-delicious-street-foods/4. It’s a photo of Large Beef Pho from Pho 2000, which was visited by former United States President Bill Clinton in year 2000. Pho for the President!

Please do head over and have a look through the whole of World’s Most Delicious Street Food article. It was mentioned that it’s the survivor’s manual to eating the best (and safest) street food! So I’m sure you’ll learn something from it. 🙂

During February 2010, my elder brother, requested for my help as photography assistant for one of his photo-shoot and as I was available, I went ahead to join in the fun. This particular photoshoot for taking part in the Harper’s BAZAAR and ION Photography Awards 2010. This competition calls for a fusion of fashion, art and architecture. The criteria for the shoot is that the location will be at ION Orchard (outside or inside).

We reached pretty early around 7.30am to come for preparations as well as to conduct the shoot before any shopping crowd comes along. Well, there was another 2 teams shooting at the same day too!

Hokkaido Shrine Photo Featured on In-flight Magazine

A Day in Sapporo 1

Several months ago, I was fortunate to be contacted by the editor of an in-flight magazine who is putting together an article on Sapporo and was asking whether I am keen to lease my photos that was taken in Sapporo during my Japan Trip in 2009.

After some clarifications (type, resolution, credits, etc) on how the images will be used, I sent over a total of 43MB worth of high-resolution photos for their selection. The package consists photos of Hokkaido Shrine, Sapporo Clock Tower and Sapporo Beer Garden.

Sometime later, I was glad to be informed that my Hokkaido Shrine photo (above) was used in the Sapporo feature in the December 2010 – January 2011 issue of Aspire, Hong Kong Airlines’ in-flight magazine. A soft copy of the magazine was also sent to me! Please see below. 🙂
