So you think being seen means posting on Instagram? Nah. I sat on my fire escape with a chipped mug of mint tea—no filter, no caption—just breath. That’s when it hit: quiet isn’t empty—it’s full of feeling. My mornings don’t start with emails… they start with steam rising from a kettle like a zen monk who forgot how to charge his phone. Walking through shadows? I did it Friday past the laundromat on Ashland—with vines climbing brick walls like slow hands reaching up. Nobody saw me.

But sometimes… they did.

Turns out ‘being seen’ isn’t about likes. It’s about sipping tea while the city forgets you exist. And somehow… that matters.

You’re not broken for not posting. You’re enough because you sat there.

So tell me—when was the last time YOU were quietly alive? Comment below—I’ll bring more mint tea.

Shadows: The Real MVP

So I went to Tokyo chasing light… and ended up falling in love with darkness. Turns out the most powerful shots aren’t the ones screaming ‘LOOK AT ME’—they’re the ones whispering ‘I’m here, but I’m not telling all.’

Beauty’s Backstage Pass

That woman in black silk? No makeup. No pose. Just walking like she owns the rain. Her shadow? More expressive than 10 viral TikTok dances.

Less = More (and Also More Soul)

We’re all tired of curated chaos. This photo? Zero likes. Zero tags. But it stayed with me longer than my last 50k-likes post ever did.

True art doesn’t perform—it resides. So next time you shoot: ask yourself—am I capturing truth… or just another Instagram fit?

You know what they say: sometimes the best story is the one you don’t see.

So you’re telling me this isn’t photography… it’s a Confucian meditation with caffeine? 🤔 I came to Thailand for ‘silence’ but ended up accidentally photographing my own emotional laundry at 5 a.m.—while monks passed without turning and the mist kissed my coffee cup like it owed me existential truth. No exposure. Just presence. And somehow my father wired semiconductors to brew tea in Cantonese while my mother edited Lightroom with soul… I’m not even sure if I’m the artist or just a very zen ghost who forgot how to scroll. You’ll find it when you stop scrolling long enough to feel your own stillness again—or when your Instagram runs out of batteries AND your inner peace runs out of pixels. Comments? You wanna join the silent rebellion? Or just sit here… sipping tea… quietly… forever?
