Photography brings us closer - Los Angeles Travel Photographer

Advanced means of transportation have made a huge difference in how we do business and how far we get to travel to in our lives.  Although I've been travelling and taking photographs for  years, not until today did I realize how close I can be with somebody, brought together by photography.If you remember, I made a trip to Vietnam and Cambodia in November of 2010.  While every city that we visited was amazing, Hoi An remained one of favorites due to it's diverse culture background and colorful architecture.  So you may remember this image that I've posted on my Facebook fan page or on Flickr.

Can you believe just one month earlier, someone took an image at the same spot?  Mind you, it's on an off-beat street that I don't think every tourist visits and this lady lives all the way in Catalonia.  What can I say?  Great minds think alike! :-)

P.S. I have to say it's pretty amazing that the same bike was still there a month later, not locked.  But the bananas had disappeared.  Any clue? ;-)

P.P.S. Any image in the Fine Art Photography category can be purchased to adorn your beautiful home.  Please contact me for sizes and presentation options.  Many ready to hang solutions to be recommended.

A New Year, Brand New Opportunities to Have Fun with Photos - Los Angeles Photographer

Hello all my friends, happy 2011!!!  I want to take this opportunity to thank you for all your support in the past year.  Without your visits to this website and your insightful comments, it wouldn't have been as much fun to keep posting. :-)

To express my appreciation, Jean Huang Photography would like to kick off the new year by having "How Much Fun Can You Have With Holiday Pictures" photo contest.

2. Submit, to the wall of the above-mentioned fan page, as many fun* photos taken during the holidays (Christmas and/or New Year) as you'd like. Make sure your photo(s) are "rated G" (i.e., safe for all ages).  Again, no limit on number of photos to submit.

3. Now, here's the fun part: Vote for fun* photos by "liking" them. And promote your photos to gain as many "likes" as possible.  So friends and family are important people in your life, in this contest. :-)

4. Deadline to submit and vote is 12:00 AM on Monday January 10th, 2011.

*Fun = special, unique, emotional, sweet, ......, fun!

P.S. What's the prize, you might ask.  As I hinted at the end of last year, I was making a 2011 calendar with some of the beautiful pictures taken in Vietnam and Cambodia.  What better way to experience the beauty of South-east Asia, for a whole year, without the expenses of traveling?
