Eye Contact, by Siew Bee Lim

It was a sunny day in April of 2018, and I was in town to photograph. I came across this charming toddler, and soon got near her to take a photograph. I was hoping to catch another moment of her with eye contact. And yes, she looked at my direction pretty soon. But, even though I clicked as soon as I could, she had blinked her eyes.

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.
