I don’t generally shoot landscapes but I love exploring familiar places early in the morning and late in the evenings before the sun goes down.

Everything looks very different.

That’s why every chance I get,  I always try to drive through a park near where I live.

At that hour, the place is silent except when the fauna, coots, ducks and geese fight over scraps.

My favorite tree (below) takes on  a super red hue as the sun slowly dips below the horizon.

But as long as the Sun’s rays reach the waters of Lake Evans, this ephemeral hue is like nothing I can create in Photoshop.

That hue can be tweaked in so many ways.

I can’t imagine trying to match that if I were a painter.

Growing up in tropical Malaysia, I never saw trees with red leaves.

It didn’t stop me from painting one that color in elementary school even if my art teacher told me it should be green.
