A Colorful Tree Bark by Siew Bee Lim

One morning in October 2018 I went to the Chinese and Japanese Garden. It was still early, and the golden sun was rising fast. As usual, there were visitors walking or jogging or cycling in the garden park. Some had finished their exercise and were on their way home. I roamed about the park for quite some time. On my way back, I noticed a tree bark very colorful under the shady sky.

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.
