Marvelous Colosseum: The Landmark of Rome

The awe-inspiring facade of the world-famous Colosseum landmark.

As the largest ancient amphitheatre ever built and the largest standing amphitheatre in the world, this structure stuns from day to night in the middle of Rome.

Santa Maria del Fiore's Gothic Architecture & Geo Design

Intense cloud cover and occasional downpours took over Florence for most of the day. While the visibility wasn't as strong and the lighting wasn't as bright, the deep tones and colors of the Duomo stood out with its vibrancy as the darkened skies and moody vibes came alive.

Blue Rush: The Intricacies of Mission Dolores

Mission Dolores Basilica Church Part II: The golden hour (and the hour leading up to it) presents some of the best photographic moments. Buildings just look and hit differently depending on the lighting, the weather, and time of day. I love how this pic of the church looks like it's taken closer to blue hour and offers such a calming, chill presence. You can see the intricate details of the structure even more vividly during this moment.

Colorful Houses in Singapore's Katong District

A super stormy, humid day couldn't stop my adventures in the Katong district as I explored the rows and rows of vibrant Peranakan houses. Pink, turquoise, orange, and golden shades create the perfect imagery and inspiration.

Broad Museum's State-of-the Art Design and Architecture


Described as a "block-size box", the design and architecture of the Broad Museum is beyond modern with sharp, intricate details outside and inside. 

I decided to capture a closeup view of this building to really capture the magnificent, contemporary composition.

Triangle Shapes: Transamerica Pyramid at Ground Level


One of those days where you wander through the outskirts of Chinatown and then head straight into downtown, directly to the Transamerica pyramid. 

This is definitely a landmark in the city, defining San Francisco's skyline for almost 100 years. The view of the pyramid from a distance is exciting enough, but being directly beneath it is equally amazing with triangle details all around the exterior.

Legion of Honor's Column Designs and Shadows


Legion of Honor Part II: Everyone comes here for amazing photo shoots, for something simple like a quick get-together or something major like graduations and weddings.

The column designs are spectacular here and make amazing backdrops. I love how these look--it's like a long walkway with sharp shadows and plenty of columns that lends a unique 3-D quality to it.
