At Smith Street, by Siew Bee Lim

This is an image of the junction between South Bridge Road and Smith Street. There is this old red building very distinct in appearance. Part of the building is currently operating a local old coffee shop. It was a sunny day, when the weather was hot and one would notice a pedestrian carrying umbrella. To the tourists, this is in Chinatown.

Photographer: Siew Bee Lim (Singapore) Registered
Born in 1965 in Singapore, photography was one of the old hobbies of Siew Bee Lim. Now she would like to learn it formally via Light & Composition platform as she believes it’s not too late. Since primary school she is not good in drawing; she doesn’t have artistic hand that some of her classmates have. Nonetheless, she likes reading since young, and would try to appreciate Chinese paintings. Few years after she started working as a Programmer, she took up photography as a hobby. She attended a short course which included a session in the darkroom. In those days, good photographs were dependent on good darkroom skills. It was unlikely that she spent much time in the darkroom. Hence the hobby didn’t last long then. She believes that the present learning experience has a longer way to go.
