Earn-A-Living Differently

In the midst of my busy schedule lately, I have to “steal shots” in between the day to enjoy photography instead of going out to do an exclusive 3-4 hours shoot without distraction. Currently, I am exploring in the different ways of “earning-a-living” in Malaysia. The wide differences, legal and illegal, ethical and unethical, successful and not-so-successful. It is mind-boggling to define success when there’s no absolute standard for eveyone. What is your success? Below are just some random street shots from recent weeks. Each potray a different lifestyle. Whether each individual is really happy with their own life or not, I don’t know.

Rushing Home

There’s no place better than home. Let us all remember the many homeless out there each day when we are travelling comfortably in our air-conditioned car. At the end of each passing day, it’s good to have some time to yourself, quiet and alone. Sometimes we work so hard for what we’re after and pass it without realizing it.
