I love shooting nature, especially those greenery and mother nature. My friends used to laugh at me that all my pictures are so lonely, hardly anyone in the pictures taken. I would just laugh them off. Well, I'm used to be walking around all alone, I love taking pictures while scrolling around, hence hardly any chance of taking pictures of others. Yeah, I could get some passerby to give me a shot, but the problem is that I'm not someone who likes taking self portrait. It's a different story if I could get group shot with my friends, I can hardly turn it down.
这几天待在家里，有时读小说、有时做些华文班的东西、有时上上网…觉得闷时就拿着手机四处拍拍照。说起手机拍照，只有在光线足够的情况下才能拍出漂亮的照片。所以呢，大白天在外头拍的照片都还过得去。在光线不足够的情况下呢，拍出朦朦胧胧的感觉吧。所以呢，有时候会特显出夕阳的美。
These few days at home, I enjoyed reading some novels, sometime I would continue on my Mandarin Class thingy, sometime I would just surf on the net... When starting to get bored, I would flash out phone to take a few pictures. Talking about taking pictures with phone, well, you need to have enough lighting to produce decent pictures. Under broad daylight, it's not a problem for phone camera. However when the light is quite dim, well, skill alone is not enough, but still, sometime good pictures could be produced.

| 双彩虹 double rainbow |
昨天，下了场毛毛雨后，蔚蓝天空出现了双彩虹。可惜在我拿起手机要拍照时，彩虹逐渐黯淡了下来。最后，还是拍了张朦朦胧胧的彩虹照。在上面的那道彩虹在照片里并不太明。但是肉眼却看得出。看来还是专业的相机比较适合这样的场面吧。以后有了稳定的收入后，也许会考虑考虑呵呵。
After some rain, double rainbow laid across the blue sky. It's a pity that by the time I'm ready to take a few shots, the rainbow started to get dim. Still, I mange to take a quite blurry picture on the double rainbow. The upper rainbow isn't that clear in the picture above, but is quite visible via the naked eyes. I guess this shows the gap between a good camera and a not-so-good camera. I guess I might consider owning one after I have stable income one day, it's a really expensive hobby to begin with.

接下来，就是夕阳了。我特别喜欢夕阳照。很多时候，肉眼中的夕阳真的很美，可惜相机只是一般，拍不出夕阳的美。
Now, let's take a look at sunset. I love sunset. Sunset looks great to our naked eyes, but sadly the photos taken can't portray the beauty thoroughly.

| 两三年前的夕阳（同样地点） Sunset at the same location 2 or 3 years back |
不过呢，感觉上两三年前所拍的夕阳更美。难道是我现在的拍照技术不如当初了？没关系，就让我继续练习吧。
I guess it's still the sunset shot taken 2 or 3 years back looks much better. Perhaps it's that my shooting skill has gotten rusty? Never mind, I'll just practise more.
