I thought the above is cute considering the 'contrast'.  Or was the signboard speaking of Santa ;)

The above is a public container for the Chinese to burn offerings to their ancestors - which must increase the incidence of asthma attacks in this country I suppose.  I had met my good friend and old pal since my army days back in the late 80s, Yeo Hong Ho, for coffee a couple of days ago, and passing by this container, and being the ever inquisitive spirit that I am, I looked in.  I always make it a point to carry my small digital camera(ricoh gx100) whenever i go down to the coffeeshop or anywhere in the neighbourhood.  You just never know when you might see something worth the capture.  More worthwhile than carrying a 'prada' or other identity-compensating accessory I think.

A shot taken to test Ricoh GX100's vibration reduction capability.

Just taken tonight.  Me and V went there especially for this shot.  Spent quite a while doing it as I could hardly see the words for the lack of light, and the wide-angle converter was blocking half the flash - take note Ricoh GX100 users.  Have to invest in a torch as they do not approve of flame-throwers.  I put the camera on 'manual' mode for this one.  Whoever says that the Ricoh is not a professional camera needs to rethink this view.  Absolutely love the GX100 now that it has proven itself as a 'ProArt compact-grade camera'.

V completes the series with the following superb unplanned-by-me shots!  No digital manipulation in the following.
