										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">World Mental Health Day 2023 falls on 10th October 2023, the theme for this year is “Mental health is a universal human right. The world can take this opportunity to raise awareness of mental health, improving our knowledge, taking and driving actions that can help promote mental health awareness, mental health matters, and we need to protect everyone as mental health is a universal human right. The recent global pandemic period from 2020 to 2022 brought huge impacts to the financial, emotional, mental and physical well-being of the human race. We were all affected during this turbulent period, some fared worse than others, some managed it better. This global pandemic in a way opened up to the issues as well as awareness of mental health and well-being that we had been facing in our daily work and living.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>A Walk Back In Time to TGH Photography Therapy Zine and Playbook</b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Going back in time, looking at what I wrote in my <a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/photojournalism/world-mental-health-day-2021">World Mental Health Day 2021</a> and<a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/photojournalism/world-mental-health-day-2022"> World Mental Health Day 2022 </a>articles, I went through some difficult times. My photography and outdoors were my form of therapy to get myself back on track. These were also the <a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/photojournalism/official-launch-of-my-second-photography-zine">motivations and story behind my second photography zine</a> “<a href="https://www.magcloud.com/browse/issue/2201537?__r=3180754">TGH Photography Therapy Zine and Playbook</a>”.

<p style="text-align: justify;">I still love the great outdoors, along with my photography and visual storytelling, continuing to play my small role to spread the message and importance of mental health awareness and mental health matters.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">It’s finally completed and ready, the time is now to announce the official launch of my second photography zine. A personal photography project that took me over a year, this was probably longer that I expected it to be, due to a mix of factors and situations ranging from procrastination, juggling time and project management, proof reading and editing over three mock up photography zine samples before finalising it ready to be announced and published.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">During the journey leading up to this launch, I do have a lot of thoughts, feelings and emotions, behind the scenes in producing and publishing my second photography zine that couldn’t really go inside there, I wanted to share some of them here below.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p><a href="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_1711.jpeg?ssl=1"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-13355" src="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_1711.jpeg?resize=500%2C334&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="500" height="334" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_1711.jpeg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_1711.jpeg?resize=225%2C150&amp;ssl=1 225w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_1711.jpeg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_1711.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_1711.jpeg?resize=465%2C310&amp;ssl=1 465w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_1711.jpeg?resize=695%2C464&amp;ssl=1 695w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/IMG_1711.jpeg?resize=600%2C400&amp;ssl=1 600w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>What is my second photography zine all about? It’s a lot more than just sweat and tears<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The motivation and story behind my second photography zine came about from some personal crisis in a middle of an ongoing global pandemic situation. There were a series of situations that took place in 2021, I won’t be going into detail anymore. In a nut shell, I spiralled down into a rabbit hole and I have to find my way out and up.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">My second photography zine has a unique and special theme &#8211; photography therapy theme, heading to the outdoors, nature, photography walks with friends, all forming part of my route to recovery.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">On a side note, if you are interested to read and know about my lengthy rantings, you can visit and discover my articles on this <a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/">TGH Photography and Travel portal/blog</a> and <a href="https://www.tangenghui.com/">TGH Technology and Business portal/blog</a> (where I write and publish personal articles as well)</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>Why do I write and publish a zine, and not as a book?</b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I decided not to go in an official book format/style, I would like it to be a bit less formal and a photography zine allows me to explore and test it out further, my photography zines are my building blocks towards a more formal visual story telling style book down the road.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>“Nobody is going to buy your book/zine”</b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A feedback/comment that I heard previously, both a constructive and brutal harsh feedback/comment in a capitalist world that we live in. This is also on me to constantly improve my writing, style and types of visual story telling projects.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We are living in a goldfish memory world that probably has only a 1-2 minutes attention span, glued to videos and driven by social media flaunting, or only looking at article headline and not reading the full article/story.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Let’s bring back the world of reading, not just online, also reading from a physical book/magazine/zine again, in a world driven by internet and social media. We are also supporting fellow creatives and writers too!<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>Question: Where can I purchase your second photography zine?</b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For my relatives, friends, supporters and followers from outside Singapore, my second photography zine is available for purchase on the MagCloud. For those living in Singapore, you can also order from <a href="https://www.magcloud.com/user/genghui">MagCloud platform</a>!<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As for my family, relatives, friends and supporters in Singapore, I would need to speak to local publishing/printing company Grenadier Press, and print them for the local Singapore market. I have yet to finalise how and where I am selling them. I might have a chat with my regular photography shops and place my zines for sale at the local Katong Square lifestyle and vintage market held every first weekend of the month.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Last but not least, thank you from the bottom of my heart, to my family, relatives, friends and supporters who believe, trust and supported me in my photography and personal journeys, writing over the past decades (and still counting).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I have my fair share of criticisms, making (I lost count) mistakes in my personal life, professional career and from running my own small business. There are also people who look down on me (who doesn’t have them in your life?). We have to take it on our chin &#8211; learn from mistakes and life lessons, change, adapt, adopt and improve.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">World Mental Health Day falls on 10th October every year, for World Mental Health Day 2022, World Health Organization theme for this year 2022 is “<a href="https://www.who.int/campaigns/world-mental-health-day/2022">Making Mental Health &amp; Well-Being for All a Global Priority</a>”.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>With 2+ years of global pandemic under our belt (2020 &#8211; 2022), the whole was thrown upside down from our daily living and working life. Our mental health and well-being took a huge hit, we were impacted and affected in different ways, levels and magnitudes.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Going back in time to 2021, there was a period during Q3 when I was at a very low point, I wasn’t in a good shape, my mental health and well-being was probably at the bottom of that rabbit hole that I spiralled myself downwards into.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<figure id="attachment_12273" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-12273" style="width: 500px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/RYAN5937.jpeg?ssl=1"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-12273" src="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/RYAN5937.jpeg?resize=500%2C334&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="500" height="334" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/RYAN5937.jpeg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/RYAN5937.jpeg?resize=225%2C150&amp;ssl=1 225w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/RYAN5937.jpeg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/RYAN5937.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/RYAN5937.jpeg?resize=465%2C310&amp;ssl=1 465w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/RYAN5937.jpeg?resize=695%2C464&amp;ssl=1 695w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/RYAN5937.jpeg?resize=600%2C400&amp;ssl=1 600w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-12273" class="wp-caption-text">Year 2021 <br />Photography by Ryan Cheng</figcaption></figure>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The above photo was shot on 24th September 2021 by fellow photographer friend Ryan Cheng. A picture speaks a thousand words, on the state of my mental health and well-being during that period. <a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/photojournalism/world-mental-health-day-2021">My article on World Mental Health Day 2021</a> translates them into a pretty lengthy article if you like to know more.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A year has passed, my situation has definitely improved from that dark and down period in 2021, putting aside the normal routine high stress and pressure in running my own photography business in a swinging up and down economic cycle. I am not writing as much in this article (I try to not write as much), as compared to my 2021 article whereby my photography and visual story telling allowed me to unleash (rant) a lot of my thoughts, feelings and emotions at that point in time.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">In a period of crisis, there are lessons to be learnt, for you to take note, be mindful and improve on. There is light at the end of the tunnel, there is a beautiful rainbow at the end of this storm. One of the bright sparks/rainbow omen that appear for me, is that my <a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/photojournalism/2nd-photography-zine-update-final-2nd-draft">second photography zine (publishing soon) </a>is based on my photography therapy journeys that I embarked during my route to recovery.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Today on 10th October 2022, World Mental Health Day 2022, I am continuing to spread the message on taking care of your personal mental health and well-being. Please visit and check out this article my alma mater University of Queensland (UQ). “<a href="https://habs.uq.edu.au/article/2022/10/what-health-how-do-we-maintain-healthy-headspace">What the health: How do we maintain a healthy headspace</a>”, published by UQ Faculty of Health and Behavioural Sciences, is a good read. <span class="Apple-converted-space">   </span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">The word, “Finally” echoes through my mind and thoughts, when I uploaded my final 2nd draft of my 2nd photography zine to MagCloud for a test print/mock up. Finally it has arrived and I can officially give my 2nd photography zine update &#8211; final 2nd draft.</p>
<p><a href="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/IMG_6406.jpeg?ssl=1"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-13183" src="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/IMG_6406.jpeg?resize=500%2C334&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="500" height="334" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/IMG_6406.jpeg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/IMG_6406.jpeg?resize=225%2C150&amp;ssl=1 225w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/IMG_6406.jpeg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/IMG_6406.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/IMG_6406.jpeg?resize=465%2C310&amp;ssl=1 465w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/IMG_6406.jpeg?resize=695%2C464&amp;ssl=1 695w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/IMG_6406.jpeg?resize=600%2C400&amp;ssl=1 600w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Just to recap, in April 2022, I shared an update titled, “<a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/photojournalism/second-photography-zine-update-review-edit-and-amendments">Second Photography Zine Update &#8211; Review, Edit and Amendments</a>”. Finally, I managed to push it through after some delays, procrastination, juggling between business and content creation.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">This is an interim update post that is way overdue on my part, this may not have everything that I would to share at this point in time. More information and details, as well as my own heartfelt personal stories in this journey creating, producing, writing and piecing all the segments together, would be shared and published when I make the official announcement on the launch of my 2nd photography zine. <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>What’s going to happen next?</b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This would be my final review, edit and amendments. For my final 2nd draft, the following steps would take place:</p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Final layout adjustments and amendments</li>
<li>Whether to go for saddle stitch binding or perfect binding</li>
<li>Lastly, a final look through with another peer review, for the last round of edits and amendments<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></li>
<li>Uploading it for official sales/printing (international market)</li>
<li>Visiting Grenadier Press to discuss on local prints</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>Pricing and Availability (International and local)</b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I haven’t decide on my selling price for my 2nd photography, once I get the local printing costs, I would be able to determine my selling price.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For my friends and supporters in other countries, it’s quite straightforward. You can purchase it from the MagCloud platform, they would print and deliver the photography zine to your residence.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For my family, relatives, friends and supporters based in Singapore, I would be making an appointment to visit Grenadier Press and have a chat with them on printing my photography zine. More details on where and how to purchase would be make in due course.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>Thoughts, Feelings and Emotions</b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">My 2nd photography zine is one of my visual story telling works that meant something deep and personal inside my heart, mind and soul, during a global pandemic period facing so much uncertainties on both professional and personal fronts, and a mixture of personal matters that spiralled me into a pretty dark hole.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The journey to capture and write my visual stories was helpful, grateful and therapeutic. Beyond that, I faced other challenges such as “Nobody is going to buy your works” and many more.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">When my 2nd photography zine is ready for official announcement, I would share more, 2 ends of a spectrum, from hurt, disappointments, sweat and tears and pride, to the joy and happiness in another personal photography, writing and creative accomplishment.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Last but not least, thank you very much from the bottom of my heart, to those who supported<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>and helped me out during those turbulent times.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Today is Friday 31st December 2021, the last day for the Year 2021. A lot of things had happened during the year, here I am, reflecting Year 2021 (Photography and Travel), writing down my inner deep thoughts, feelings and emotions on a very turbulent, difficult, tough and testing year for me.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>Photography<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Business</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Running any business, no matter whether it’s a small, medium or big business, it’s just very tough, very difficult and very stressful. Throw in a global pandemic situation that further transformed into an economic crisis, the magnitude increased exponentially. No educational textbooks can really teach you everything about running and operating a business, let alone a photography business.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<figure id="attachment_12092" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-12092" style="width: 500px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/RYAN1610.jpeg?ssl=1"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-12092" src="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/RYAN1610.jpeg?resize=500%2C334&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="500" height="334" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/RYAN1610.jpeg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/RYAN1610.jpeg?resize=225%2C150&amp;ssl=1 225w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/RYAN1610.jpeg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/RYAN1610.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/RYAN1610.jpeg?resize=465%2C310&amp;ssl=1 465w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/RYAN1610.jpeg?resize=695%2C464&amp;ssl=1 695w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/RYAN1610.jpeg?resize=600%2C400&amp;ssl=1 600w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-12092" class="wp-caption-text">Photography by Ryan Cheng</figcaption></figure>
<p style="text-align: justify;">While I didn’t exactly started off properly in my photography business a few years back due to some unforeseen circumstances, when this global pandemic wave hit us in 2020, this was a major setback. I didn’t know exactly know what steps to take, it took me a while to navigate, adapt and change my photography services portfolio.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In a harsh and brutal analysis, switching photography genres and services can be playing catch up with fellow photographers in those particular fields. Considering the ongoing and near future impacts of this global pandemic situation, I have switched my photography genres services as well as adding digital marketing/social media marketing into a digital agency setup. Therefore, I established TGH Digital Studio earlier in the year and I am working to expand on this in Year 2022.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Personal/Leisure</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Although I didn’t put more time into my personal/leisure photography as I would love to, I was glad to rediscover the art and wonder of nature therapy/forest therapy, a.k.a. Shinrin-Yoku (森林浴) &#8211; forest bathing. Entering into the world of nature, green spaces and the great outdoors was my haven for refuge during this particular period whereby I was in a rut, in a really bad emotional and mental health well-being.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A big thank you from the bottom of my heart to my photography outdoors explorer friends that trekked together with me exploring forest bathing and offering me priceless and unwavering support and encouragement during my downtime.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<figure id="attachment_12049" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-12049" style="width: 400px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/cropped-IMG_0303.jpeg?ssl=1"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-12049" src="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/cropped-IMG_0303.jpeg?resize=400%2C600&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="400" height="600" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/cropped-IMG_0303.jpeg?w=854&amp;ssl=1 854w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/cropped-IMG_0303.jpeg?resize=100%2C150&amp;ssl=1 100w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/cropped-IMG_0303.jpeg?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/cropped-IMG_0303.jpeg?resize=768%2C1151&amp;ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/cropped-IMG_0303.jpeg?resize=367%2C550&amp;ssl=1 367w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/cropped-IMG_0303.jpeg?resize=334%2C500&amp;ssl=1 334w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/cropped-IMG_0303.jpeg?resize=600%2C899&amp;ssl=1 600w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-12049" class="wp-caption-text">Photography by Isaac Ong</figcaption></figure>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>Travel<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Exploring my own backyard / Domestic</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The good and bad thing about us being unable to travel overseas, is that we explore our own backyard. For me, even though I have been regularly going out to explore my own backyard, it feels good and refreshing to re-explore my own backyard again, documenting and updating my collections.<span class="Apple-converted-space">   </span></p>
<p><a href="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_6856.jpeg?ssl=1"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-12208" src="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_6856.jpeg?resize=500%2C334&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="500" height="334" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_6856.jpeg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_6856.jpeg?resize=225%2C150&amp;ssl=1 225w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_6856.jpeg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_6856.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_6856.jpeg?resize=465%2C310&amp;ssl=1 465w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_6856.jpeg?resize=695%2C464&amp;ssl=1 695w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_6856.jpeg?resize=600%2C400&amp;ssl=1 600w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The bad thing to me is, everyone is now a hiker, cyclist, nature lover or heritage and conservation advocate probably because they can’t travel out of Singapore for their regular holidays. While they probably have good intentions, their actions and ethics prove/shown otherwise.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>International<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">At the start of 2021, I was cautiously optimistic that I would be able to travel out again around Q3 or Q4 2021. However, I got myself thrown into a spiral downwards into a rut due to various situations happening in mid 2021. The travel situation in the earlier part of the year wasn’t that optimistic as well.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As time progressed into Q3 2021, there were vaccinated travel lane (VTL) arrangements between Singapore and a list of countries, opening up the possibilities for people to travel out. However, there were still many uncertainties with this ongoing global pandemic situation. The emergence of the new variant Omicron has put international travel back to a slowdown again.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">As a co-host of <a href="https://www.traveldudes.com/ttot-travel-talk-on-twitter/">Travel Talk on Twitter</a> (<a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/travel/join-ttot-travel-talk-on-twitter">TTOT) community chat</a> on Twitter taking place every Tuesday 9:30am GMT and 9:30pm GMT, I learned a lot more about the international travel and tourism situations from fellow travel and tourism friends and networks.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I was reminded on this life lesson, “Travel can be a privilege”, a constant reminder to myself. During this global pandemic crisis, this quote is even more prevalent, revealing the widening gap between the rich and the rest.</p>
<p><a href="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/IMG_0714.jpg?ssl=1"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-5898" src="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/IMG_0714.jpg?resize=500%2C333&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="500" height="333" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/IMG_0714.jpg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/IMG_0714.jpg?resize=225%2C150&amp;ssl=1 225w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There are still many travel uncertainties, rules, restrictions and lockdowns can change at the snap of the finger by the respective authorities of the country. I also have a tight financial situation due to my photography business being affected by this pandemic.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When can we really truly restart tourism again? I would share my thoughts and views in another article in January 2022, an update to my earlier articles “<a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/travel/when-can-we-restart-tourism">When can we Restart Tourism?</a>” and “<a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/travel/world-tourism-day-2021">World Tourism Day 2021</a>”.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>Last but not least</b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Year 2021 had been a very turbulent year of many ups and downs, disappointments and heartaches from unnecessary expectations. There were many life and business lessons handed out to me, priceless and painful.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Do visit my <a href="https://www.tangenghui.com/">TGH Technology and Business Portal/Blog</a> too! I have also published <a href="https://www.tangenghui.com/personal-stories/reflecting-year-2021-technology-business-and-personal">a reflection, thoughts and views article in my technology, business and personal segments</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Signing off Year 2021 with a beautiful sunset to say goodbye to Year 2021, good riddance to bad rubbish. It’s been a very painful time, very difficult and tough, mentally, emotionally and financially for me personally. I will learn, remember and apply the good and bad lessons from this year. I will also make sure that I will never let myself fall as low as what happened to me in 2021.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Year 2022 is starting soon, a new year, a fresh and brand new start in an ongoing global pandemic situation. I would share more about my plans and directions in the Year 2022 for my photography and travel segments inside my upcoming Theme and Goals for Year 2022 article.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">To all those who had pulled me up when I was down at the bottom, as well as those who supported and encouraged me throughout this very difficult Year 2021, I sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart, no amount of words can show my utmost appreciation towards what you all had done for me.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">It’s now December 2021 &#8211; Its’ time for me to return back to Mother Nature and the Great Outdoors for nature therapy, photography therapy, a time for peace and tranquility away from the past eleven months of mental and emotional turbulence battling this ongoing global pandemic. I didn’t go into nature and outdoors from late September 2021 to late November 2021 as I was working on getting my photography business back on track amidst all the ups and downs, disruptions, changes and restrictions in place.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Time to finish up my photography zine </b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I started working on my second photography zine some months back around June/July 2021. That was a work-in-progress, there were delays, distractions on my part, facing writer’s block and no creative breakthrough.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As I was reorganising and replanning my works for my run-in during the final month of the year 2021, I told myself, it’s time to finish up my second photography zine and getting it ready for the zine/book launch in January 2022. My theme for my second zine revolves around nature therapy, great outdoors and photography therapy, thus I am returning to nature and great outdoors.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Return to Nature and Great Outdoors</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Most recently, I went on two treks to the Old Jurong Line / Sungei Ulu Pandan Park Connector, I brought 2 different groups of friends there. Time to work on my Old Jurong Park Connector article. Not only have I rekindled my passion for trekking, enjoying and relaxing, I am also chasing sunsets, they can be pretty dramatic and epic at this time of the year.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>What I want to do and where I want to explore/trek in December 2021</b></p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Bring like-minded friends on treks, returning back to the days when I used to lead photo walks previously</li>
<li>Go with like minded trekkers to explore more nature and outdoors<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></li>
<li>Bird photography at Sungei Buloh<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></li>
<li>Old Jurong Line / Clementi Forest / Dover Forest exploration and documentation for my article<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></li>
<li>Jenal Jetty / Rower’s Bay / Yishun Dam / Seletar district<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></li>
<li>Mt Faber and Labrador Park (history documentation)</li>
<li>Chestnut Nature Park (continue my nature exploration)</li>
<li>More places to be added at a later time</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Some of those destinations would most likely have extended trekking adventures in order for me to have a more extensive photography documentation and exploration.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p><a href="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/IMG_0656.jpeg?ssl=1"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-12444" src="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/IMG_0656.jpeg?resize=500%2C334&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="500" height="334" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/IMG_0656.jpeg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/IMG_0656.jpeg?resize=225%2C150&amp;ssl=1 225w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/IMG_0656.jpeg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/IMG_0656.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/IMG_0656.jpeg?resize=465%2C310&amp;ssl=1 465w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/IMG_0656.jpeg?resize=695%2C464&amp;ssl=1 695w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/IMG_0656.jpeg?resize=600%2C400&amp;ssl=1 600w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>How should I go forward with writing and sharing my trekking adventure stories?</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Although I have been writing regularly on my trekking adventure stories, I am considering different approaches on how to go about doing it, how much information and photos to share.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Should I consider the following points below:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Go on travel/trekking writing approach from point A to Point B with route map added, directions etc?<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></li>
<li>Consolidate and update my previous trekking/exploration adventures e.g. The Green Corridor, Old Jurong KTM Railway Line?</li>
<li>Input more history behind my trekking adventures whereby there is a bit of history behind those places?</li>
<li>Should I do a coverage on Singapore’s many Park Connector Networks (PCN) routes?</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It’s a food for thought, any new approaches to my trekking adventure stories would probably start in Q1 2022. Stay tuned!</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Keep on trekking, keep on exploring</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As the Chinese saying goes, “千里之行, 始于足下“, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. I want and I have to keep on trekking, keep on exploring, not just in my photography (both business and personal), my travels, my other business developments and also in my personal life too.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Teacher’s Day 2021 was on 3rd September, I haven’t been celebrating Teacher’s Day since I finished my junior college days some decades back.

<p style="text-align: center;">Photography by <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ryancheng80/">Ryan Cheng</a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Teacher’s Day celebration brought two subjects into my mind, learning/training and photography. I wasn’t formally trained in photography, I learnt through National Geographic Magazines, photography books, going hands-on and learning from my mistakes. However, I was blessed to meet different photographers in my photography journey over the decades who were willing to share their invaluable photography knowledge, skills and experiences with me.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p><a href="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_7831.jpeg?ssl=1"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-12209" src="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_7831.jpeg?resize=500%2C334&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="500" height="334" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_7831.jpeg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_7831.jpeg?resize=225%2C150&amp;ssl=1 225w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_7831.jpeg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_7831.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_7831.jpeg?resize=465%2C310&amp;ssl=1 465w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_7831.jpeg?resize=695%2C464&amp;ssl=1 695w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/IMG_7831.jpeg?resize=600%2C400&amp;ssl=1 600w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">To my few photography friends/disciples that came under my tutelage, I hope that I am a good enough photography teacher. Training and sharing my photography knowledge, skills and experience are also another form of learning and gaining more knowledge, skills and experience for myself.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">To myself, learning never stops, no matter what education level or life stage I am at right now. Besides continuous learning new skills and knowledge in photography and videography, I learnt to produce and publish my own photography zines, with more zine projects on the pipeline.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Next up for me is digital arts and NFT, the next field that I am going into. The NFT sector is not entirely new to me, I am learning more about them, to keep up with the developments and what I need to do.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Another field that I am working on is photography therapy zine/book through my nature, landscapes and outdoors photography. The ongoing global pandemic has taken a huge toll on our mental and emotional health. I wasn’t spared, I knew it deep down personally, how damaging it can be on us. My photography therapy works are meant to help lighten your stress in a small way or another, through my photographs and activities. <span class="Apple-converted-space">   </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Never stop learning, never stop teaching, in life, in my photography.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">The past few months had been a roller coaster ride, from reaching a milestone, followed a pretty turbulent journey down into the bottom before getting out and back on track again.

<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>From April 2021 to August 2021</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A quick recap, I celebrated a milestone “<a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/photojournalism/10th-april-2021-celebrating-15-years-of-tgh-photography-and-travel-portal-blog">Celebrating 15 years of TGH Photography and Travel Portal/Blog</a>” in April 2021. Things was looking quite alright at that time but life doesn’t go as planned many times.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/photojournalism/phase-2-heightened-alert-in-singapore-starts-on-16th-may-2021">Phase 2 Heightened Alert (P2HA)</a> came into effect in May 2021, I got into some wrong end of some personal situations, I spiralled down, got stuck in a rut, depressed, I asked myself on the topics of “<a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/photojournalism/fate-and-time">Fate and Time</a>”. A few friends came forward and pulled me out from my rut.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">During my recovery journey, there was an “<a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/photojournalism/blessing-or-omen">Blessing or Omen?</a>”, followed by me “<a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/photojournalism/reflecting-h1-2021-and-new-themes-for-photography-and-travel-in-h2-2021">Reflecting H1 2021 and New Themes for Photography and Travel in H2 2021</a>”. <a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/photojournalism/return-of-p2ha-please-take-good-care">Another round of P2HA was implemented again in July 2021</a>, it definitely was very tough and challenging on us mentally, emotionally and financially.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Most recently, I wrote a <a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/photojournalism/a-personal-tribute-to-mr-richard-teo-former-dsg-scoutmaster">personal tribute to my former DSG Scoutmaster who recently passed on</a>, this would give you insights into my humble beginnings decades back, that’s where I started my love for outdoors, travel and exploration.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Photography business</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Operating and running a small business (such as my own sole proprietorship photography business) during this global pandemic is one of the toughest life/society/economy lessons that you can ever have in running a small business of any kind.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This was a period of pivoting, adapting, adopting, changing, making strategic and directional changes. Beyond just photography services, I am in the midst of developing and expanding my TGH Digital Studio, into Digital Marketing, Content Creation, Social Media Marketing and Videography services.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>

<p style="text-align: center;">Photography by<a href="https://www.instagram.com/isaacthecrazed/"> Isaac Ong</a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I am curating and updating my new portraiture photography<a href="https://www.tghphotography.com/"> portfolio for my TGH Photography website</a>, adding pet photography and zen / therapy landscapes portfolio too!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">On the topic of collaborations and partnerships, there are ongoing discussions, stay tuned!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Zines/Books Updates</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ever since I published my<a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/photojournalism/launch-of-tgh-photography-zine-vol-1-sg55-special-edition"> first official zine TGH Photography Zine Vol 1. &#8211; SG55 Special Edition</a> in December 2020, I really wanted to publish more photography and travel related zines on a regular basis. This proved to be quite challenging, from my project and time management perspectives.</p>
<p><a href="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/0I0A0539.jpeg?ssl=1"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-11476" src="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/0I0A0539.jpeg?resize=500%2C334&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="500" height="334" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/0I0A0539.jpeg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/0I0A0539.jpeg?resize=225%2C150&amp;ssl=1 225w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/0I0A0539.jpeg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/0I0A0539.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/0I0A0539.jpeg?resize=465%2C310&amp;ssl=1 465w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/0I0A0539.jpeg?resize=695%2C464&amp;ssl=1 695w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I have three ongoing work-in-progress zines/books</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Meow Mixed Media</li>
<li>15 years milestone zine/book</li>
<li>Photography therapy + playbook</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There was an initial plan to publish a photo book based on one of my personal documentary projects that would be partially funded through my application for funding from organisations. Looking at my current situation and timeline, I am most likely going to postpone this to next year 2021, concentrating on my current work-in-progress zines/books.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Travel and Tourism</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We haven’t been able to travel since the global pandemic hit the whole world in 2020. I reckon many of us are feeling the urge to travel out and away, we have been “stuck” in our home country for a period of time, wishing that we are back to the pre-COVID19 days when we can travel freely and easily.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I wrote an earlier article on, “<a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/travel/when-can-we-restart-tourism">When we restart tourism?</a>”. Initially, I was a bit optimistic that we might be able to travel soon in Q3 or Q4 2021. However, during that time when I published my article, there were quite a fair bit of world developments in the global pandemic situation, the Delta variant is a lot more tricky to handle than the whole world initially thought it was able to do so.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p><a href="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/IMG_0805.jpg?ssl=1"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-5884" src="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/IMG_0805.jpg?resize=500%2C333&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="500" height="333" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/IMG_0805.jpg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/IMG_0805.jpg?resize=224%2C150&amp;ssl=1 224w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After following and reading news, updates and views from various industry sources, I am holding back my optimism, choosing to be more cautious and prudent. While countries are currently working towards opening up their tourism industries in selected areas/regions, I have to plan and consider carefully before making any travel decision, there might not be any travel for me in 2021, it might just be early 2022 instead.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I am also enlightened by fellow <a href="https://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/travel/join-ttot-travel-talk-on-twitter">TTOT (Travel Talk on Twitter)</a> co-host <a href="https://twitter.com/SonjaSwissLife">Sonja’s</a> words and advice on traveling during this pandemic. Let’s see how the world travel and tourism situation develops in the next few months.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Meanwhile, I am establishing new networks, partnerships and collaborations in the travel and tourism sectors. When the suitable time arises, I would share more details and updates in this area.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Digital Arts and NFT</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I have been talking about this topic on digital arts and NFTs for a period of time. This is still a very new area for me to enter into, I haven’t fully embark into this arena yet. I am still researching on which NFT marketplace is more suitable for my photography works, how to go about minting my digital artworks.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This is an area that I am currently working on, I hope to share more updates soon when it is appropriate to do so.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Personal Documentary Photography Projects</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Whenever I am not doing commercial photography, I have my own personal documentary photography projects, some I have already embarked on, so it’s a continuation in a way. There are also some new personal projects that I am going to embark on.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Here’s a list of my ongoing personal documentary photography projects:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Photography therapy / Nature therapy / Shinrin-Yoku<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></li>
<li>Old Jurong Line Nature Trail<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></li>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Keep a lookout for them in my upcoming articles!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Printer Review + Printing photos as gifts</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I am reviewing Canon’s PIXMA G670 photo printer, I would be taking this opportunity to print curated 4R and A4 photography prints for a small group of people who had helped me during the past few months, especially during the period when I was stuck in a rut, they were the ones who lent their helping hands and emotional support, they pulled me out from the bottom and walked with me in my recovery journey.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Oh yes, do keep a lookout for my PIXMA G670 photo printer review!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Canon lenses rebalancing in progress</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Canon L lenses are superb lenses, I have been using some lenses for a period of time. For those who have been following my Canon explorer stories since the start of my TGH Photography and Travel Portal/Blog, you would know how long I have been using some of my Canon L lenses.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I was contemplating some changes and upgrades since last year, I finally made a decision in the first quarter of 2021 to do a “rebalancing” my Canon lenses setup. It took me a while to get my lenses and accessories sold as well getting in my new lenses.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>New (used) f-stop gear Satori-EXP camera backpack + wardrobe revamp<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Over the years, I learnt the world (and ropes) of buying and selling used goods especially in the photography market.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>I found a used f-stop gear Satori-EXP camera backpack at a very good price on Carousell, adding it to my photography bags setup (A rebalancing of my photography bags is coming soon too!). Even though it’s a very used camera backpack, I still like it a lot! I was inspired to make some changes to my wildlife/outdoors photographer/explorer setup with a wardrobe revamp, I do need to replace some of my older apparel due to wear and tear over time.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">These are my new additions/changes in my wardrobe revamp</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>New trekking/wildlife exploration cargo pants (for my commercial photography wear as well)</li>
<li>New buff/bandana<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></li>
<li>New Merrell hiking boots</li>
<li>A long sleeve outdoor/trekking black colour shirt from my wardrobe</li>

<p style="text-align: justify;">In case you missed it, I do have a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/GengHuiTan">YouTube channel</a>, please do support and follow! I haven’t been updating my videography and filmmaking channel. Maintaining photography and videography/filmmaking concurrently was much tougher than I expected.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Videography/Filmmaking is an area that I have identified to be lacking in, a skill to learn, improve and as a form of creative production to complement my photography and content creation. I am working on some new video/short film projects:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Photography therapy / nature therapy / Shinrin-Yoku project with therapeutic music composed by a very talented musician, composer, photographer and technology writer <a href="https://chester.sg">Chester Tan</a>.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></li>
<li>A new profile video with my revamped outdoors/wildlife photographer/explorer wardrobe.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Last but not least</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Last but not least, thank you for taking the time to read till the end of my photography, travel and updates 17th August 2021. This time round, it’s probably a lot more lengthy than my previous updates! Our reading and attention time span has drastically reduced in this modern social media driven environment.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I really appreciate the support and encouragement that you have shown for my photography, content creation and writing works over the years, walking with me as I explored, sharing the different worlds and stories through my photographs and stories.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">On 16th May 2021, <a href="https://www.tangenghui.com/personal-stories/16th-may-2021-start-of-phase-2-heightened-alert">Singapore entered into Phase 2 Heightened Alert </a>due to the increasing number of community cases in recent weeks. Personally, I was feeling very frustrated during the few days leading up to 16th May 2021. I needed my own photography therapy with sea, clouds and sunset, I visited East Coast Park on 15th May 2021, a change of locations from the nature reserves and other parks that I have visited.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I was blessed with nice blue sky, beautiful clouds and a pretty sunset on 16th May 2021! It was really therapeutic for me, the sea, clouds and sunset made me relaxed inside and soothed away my frustrations. <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">I hope that my form of photography therapy with sea, clouds and sunset would provide you with some form of relaxation and solitude during this Phase 2 Heightened Alert period. If you are planning to head out to the outdoors, parks etc, do remember the restrictions, 2 pax only, wear a mask at all times and practice safety social distancing!</p>
