Happy Easter Holidays! ... and some pictures of Yukyin

Thanks to the Easter Holidays in Hong Kong, we have 4 days off!! :)

Okay, I won't say much today except to remind that Easter is to commemorate the last days of Christ. The last night, He dine with his disciples before being betrayed by Juda, then, He was arrested, condemned and crucified. Three days later, He was resurrect .

If you want to learn more, just go to biblegateway and read one of the four fist books of the New Testament.

As we are in holidays... I went out for a stroll and take some quick portrait of Yukyin, it will give you a face to remember when you pray for her, if you do so:

Close portrait. Sweet smile.

See, she still have a little bump. Her tummy does not grow that much.

For the photography part, the set-up was simple, sun light only, no reflectors, she was sitting on some stairs concrete. She walked a little bit too much, she was exhausted so, we took the time to take a bit of pictures. Simple as that..

Camera used is my trusty Fuji S5 Pro with a Nikkor 35 f2 open widely to have swallow depth of field (more on my gear later when I'll tell you about).

Pray that you enjoyed it.

Heidi looks healthy. Seems she is well taken care of. Hope you're doing the same for yourself.

By the way, just want to mention that in Japan, pregnant women can hang a small badge on their purse or handbag that says they are pregnant. So when people see this on the train/subway, they will know to stand up and offer their seat.

Of course, there are plenty of inconsiderate people in Japan too, so those people just pretend not to see the badge. I've seen them even pretend to sleep. Nice, huh?

Thanks Eugene, hope you have a nice stay in the USA. I hope to come to Japan very soon as soon as baby get a passport... :D

Talking about inconsiderate people not offering their seats to a pregnant woman, few months ago, an old guy pretended not seeing Heidi and he actually RACED to get the only seat available in the KCR at Hong Hum Station. Then, he switched his daily horse racing newspaper hiding his face...

The badge is a nice idea (I thought that Japanese would have this kind of things... dunno why though :D), not sure if we can do it in here.

I wish on was on that KCR train with you. I would have made that old guy eat his newspaper.

Yeahhh :)

Yukyin was reading some forums lately, and apparently, the KCR line is well known for its high number of inconsiderate people... as you move South to Hong Kong Island, there is more. It's funny how we can see this separation between islander and the rest...
