PhotoHunt - Two

For this week's photohunt theme, here are two photos taken in two different destinations.


Two unknown sculptures, male and female, caught my eye while I was wandering the streets in Shanghai. They look intriguing and both are about two feet tall.



And here's one in Moscow. A pair of lion's head door knockers adorn one of the wooden doors at the State Historical Museum. Happy knocking and happy 11-11-11.

Our World - Red Square by night

For this week's Our World entry, I'm featuring a couple of night shots taken at Red Square. There is always something colourful and enjoyable to see and capture there. The entire square is not only impressive in the day time, it's also a great spot to enjoy Moscow's night life when the buildings sparkle and shine with hundreds of flashing lights.

No tripod was used, all photos were handheld and I like the way they turned out. Thanks to my Nikon D90 camera which has a Vibration Reduction feature to reduce camera shake which I find useful when shooting without a tripod. Hope you like them too.
