Welcome to my article "Enjoy Hokkaido Food Tourism". When one mentioned Hokkaido, images of snow-capped mountains, breathtaking natural scenery, fresh seafood, and gorgeous hot springs start to flood the mind.

I hope through my travelogue, readers (especially those on self-drive vacation in the western region comprising Sapporo, Kuriyama, Ishikari, and Niseko) will be able to craft a...
Welcome to my article on "Dolphins Watching in Lovina, North Bali".

Welcome to my article on "Hidaka - Hokkaido’s Hidden Gem". When travelling, sometimes it’s the unplanned itineraries that reward us with the best memories. Such is my experience with Hidaka, a coastal town in Southern Hokkaido, just about 130km or a 2.5 hour's drive from the New Chitose Airport. Hidaka is Japan’s largest horse breeding hub accounting for nearly 80% of all horses bred in Japan. In 2011, out of about 7,000 thoroughbred horses bred in Japan, 5,600 came from Hidaka. So...
Panning technique in photography refers to the usage of a slow shutter speed and swinging motion of the camera to follow or track the motion of a moving object. Because the camera is moved to track at the same speed as the moving subject, the subject appears sharp while the background and its details appear in motion in the photo, although it's essentially stationary.
Panning is one of the most invaluable techniques that a photographer can have , especially those doing sports photography,...

Food photography is arguably one of the most challenging types of photography out there. Like painting, you start with a blank canvas and build. Layer upon layer, you build up the photo until you achieve the ideal balance of reality and form. This article focuses on basic food photography with natural light and basic 'everyday' setting.
Avoid going for the "helicopter" effect by cramping all the...
Sports photography refers to the genre of photography that includes all types of sports. Sports shooting can be one of the most challenging types of photography, even to the seasoned advanced shooter. The slightest mistake or a lapse of concentration can make or break a shot.
One of the biggest obstacles to entry to this field is equipment. You need the right gears for the right job. It is basically impossible to take good sports photos without an DSLR and...
Animal or wildlife photography is a genre of photography involving various forms of wildlife in their natural habitat. It is one of the more exciting but challenging forms of photography. Other than requiring competent technical skills, such as being able to expose correctly, wildlife photographers generally need good field craft skills and at least basic knowledge of the animals they are photographing. Foome animals are difficult to approach and thus a knowledge of the animal's behavior...
