Dance Precautions no1

Min Wye — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 01:32:14 +0000

Last weekend was a total catastrophe, something no Gum, mint or breath freshener could recover. I had dry curry noodles, the key word being “curry”.

Word of advice from me, dont eat “curry” before going to dance…I will learn from my mistakes..

Ruapehu Skiing

Min Wye — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 12:56:07 +0000

This is Mount Ruapehu in New Zealand. Ronald and Lydia brought Ben and myself here to go skiing.

Mt Ruapehu

See that red circle on the photo? I skied down from there(top of the mountain) Pretty proud of myself for succesfully clearing a couple “black diamond” runs on my first try skiing.

*The ski track difficulty is broken down by(from easiest to hardest):-
Green>Blue>Black>Double Black

All I can think about now is skiing, Im already pondering on 2010 trip. Any ideas?

AFK!

Doudoule Camp Photo Favourites

Min Wye — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 07:00:28 +0000

This is definitely a way overdue post. I shot these photos 2 months ago at the Doudoule Latin Dance Camp that was held in the Gold Coast, Queensland. 2 nights of performances landed me with over 800 photos that I sifted, culled and edited. These 3 photos are my favourite of set.

1. Alex Bryan and Ebony Berrel performed a contemporary routine.

2. Ulysses MacLaren and Jasmin Addison with a Salsa.

3. Giancarlo and Masha on a cha-cha.

Tell me, which is your favourite?

Sneak Peak: Katherine and Lloyd’s Engagement Shoot

Min Wye — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 07:00:36 +0000

This is just a quick post while Im away in New Zealand

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to shoot the wonderful and energetic couple, Katherine and Lloyd. We headed down to Dutton Park at an old abandoned lot where an old biscuit used to sit. Heres a sneak peak of one of the photos from the day.

I will post a couple of my favourite photos when Im back from New Zealand =D

Im on a plane! To Auckland

Min Wye — Sun, 05 Jul 2009 23:16:08 +0000

By the time you read this, I’ll probably be in beautiful Auckland.

Over the next 2 weeks, my blog will be running on autopilot with the occasional checkup from moi with a total blackout for this week.

Photos from the airport after several attempts of trying and a great landscape photo of our plane.

Enjoy life while we rock out the mountains!

Auckland, here I come

Min Wye — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 10:30:54 +0000

Im totally estatic, Im a weekend away from heading over to Auckland, the land of sheep, fish and chups and beached in whales =D

I will be accompanied by Ben and we will be spending 12 days there, 7 out of which will be spent up at Mount Ruapehu skiing! Itll be my first time skiing too so Im pretty stoked. Our “tour guide” will be none other than one of my best friends, Ronald whos wedding Im attending in January(see my previous post about being a groomsmen) and will meet his fiance for the first time over the week.

Back to skiing, Ive been watching the weather reports eagerly hoping the weather works out for us and learnt from Haemogee how to read an ISOBAR map and forecasted the week Im there to start off abit wet but eventually turning to clear skies for the rest of the week!

When we are back down from the mountains, we have a couple of things loosely planned over the 3-4 days with Celeste, another one of my childhood friends!

Heres our list:-
-Waitamo Caves: we havent decided which adventure we will take, any suggestions?
-Underwater World: We will check this place out when we are back in Auckland, there were some really good reviews about it. *cross fingers* and hope I can bring my camera in there(probably no flash photography)
-Sky City: Drinks at the swanky Sky City absorbing the magnificent views.
-Kingslander: As a Salsa dancer, how can I go to a city and not go dancing! We will be meeting up with Hamish, a temporary Brisbanite who lives in New Zealand to dance.

Those are the main big attractions that we are aiming for. Now, I have a dillema, I believe we have 2 free days that have nothing planned for them and we want to visit some wineries and maybe some other tourist spots, maybe a coastal area of sorts. I would REALLY REALLY appreciate it if you could share your Auckland, New Zealand experiences with famous wineries and maybe, the hidden treasures of Auckland.

ps – Oh, I forgot to mention, I will bring you back a surprise gift of sorts from New Zealand for your thoughts on interesting spots around Auckland =D

pps – Im not kidding about the gift, I will personally mail it to you if youre not located in Brisbane!

Babies with Attitude

Min Wye — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 10:36:00 +0000

Ooh, my brain is racked and Im suffering from a serious lack of sleep. I started looking around youtube to keep myself busy and awake so I dont screw up my bio-clock(not that its not screwed up already) I bumped into a video of a baby I saw a couple months back and I couldnt resist sharing it, Evil Eye Baby:

So, I looked around for more babies with attitude and bumped into this video, it totaly cracked me up and I couldnt stop laughing. I have a younger sister and I remember my cousins doing things like this to her when she was way younger, too bad we didnt have a video camera back then. Anyway, the Whatever Baby:

Ive added a new topic, Baby Blues for all things baby-ish from my love for babies except changing nappies and waking up at 3am to feed them that started off from my cousin-nephew, Max(photo below, unfortunately, all my recent photos were accidentally left on my cousins desktop and he is travelling in Europe with Max now)

Now, I would love to see more babies with attitude, be it a photo or video =D
