Been fascinated with street photography for a many a year. Would've liked to say my learning intensified during the pandemic but alas it was instead near-abandoned.

Hoping the recent headspace release can kickstart my journey. For now, I'll need to brush off the dust, starting with A-mode and a short journey from the beautiful suburbs of Bounds Green to dynamic China town.

So yes. I like photography as it tells stories, mine is precious to me as it reminds so much more than just what I see.

Google Bard can’t draw

Google Bard is incomplete at best, at its worst a lazy student winging it

Baby Steps - 1.01^x

his might be a (re)breakthrough, finally accepted that I can’t bear it anymore, I’ve started my first baby steps towards learning to fly!

We visited the local flying school, enquired about how to get started, the potential costs and durations it might incur. Happy to say none of it had dissuaded me.

Later that night, and for the rest of the coronation weekend, surfice to say I’ve been “binging” ground school curricula, starting with a trial course of Air Law (the first of 9 theorectical exams) with Easypplgroundschool.com. And, I’ve also signed up to UK’s CAA portal- so yeah, pretty motivated start.

Very appreciative of how supportive my wife turned out to be, aside from chiding me for being “gatal” and “zenglan” (meaning I’m itching and bringing trouble on myself). I had this mental block that she would baulk at not just the cost, but also the time investment it would take. I guess she knows I need this.

It’ll be a significant investment once all is said and done, but the journey will be a long one- somewhere along 12-24 months- so it'll be managable.
