D90 Workshop: Model Shooting

Accidentally get to know about this workshop from lowyat.net forum. It was not a hot topic but it catch my eyes. It’s a good opportunity for me to upgrade my skill and knowledge instead. But the whole course cost you RM90. So i register myself, together with my housemate and his colleague, who also own D90. And yes, the course exclusively for Nikon D90 DSLR owner. HOHO.

They begin the workshop with a speaker named Kelvin. He is one of the director of biggest advertisement company. And he shoot great photo. “Power of Light”. He explained very well how to catch the light and how to capture an artistic photography. And ever seen them, we see the sky different. 30 minutes before and after sunrise/sunset, the sky will appear as different color. Witness it yourselves, look up the sky. After the workshop, LCH was driving around 7pm++ and we was, wow, the sky is so nice. HAHA. And ever since then, we use spot metering instead of matrix metering.

OK. I think the RM 90 is really for hiring hot model. I mean HOT till one of the model get sun burn. Her skin totally turn red and LCH keep calling her LOBSTER. HAHA. We were shooting under hot sun from 10.30am till 12.30pm before we head for lunch break.

Here are the photo after some re-touch. HEHE.

The afternoon session was boring because the speakers were too much over, like selling themselves instead of D-Movie. We have model dancing and we suppose to take video. But i run out of memory. Those model fill up my memory card. HAHA.

Anyway, first time i feel satisfy with model shooting or even try taking portrait photo. There are still many space i have to fill up, my photography skill as well as photoshop. HEHE.

Thanks Nikon Malaysia for such event. Hope you guys can come up with more.

1st Putrajaya Hot Air Balloon Fiesta 2009

It is very impressive that Malaysia can organize such international event here in Putrajaya, like the MIFC. I think they attract more local than foreigner lo. You can see the crowd. But anyway, it is a good and healthy outing.

And of course, it is also a big event for photography enthusiasm. You can see ‘huge huge’ camera walking around. Or even like they are carrying a ‘kancil car’, i mean pricy and keng keng DSLR lar.

That Saturday Noon, they suppose to open the field for photographer but they do not. And they don’t until the balloon start flying up, they still don’t. So some, or i can say everyone, break the stupid lousy gate, and rush inside (gated wo!!). It was like chaos down there. Packs with photographer and people. But we still found our way to photograph la. Hehe.

DSC_0015_1DSC_0026_1 DSC_0019_1i like this kind of Hot Air Balloon most. Classic. Although the shape like Elephant or Orange quite interesting. But it still weird. Got Nescafe Cup some more. LOL

爱情

你应该听过爱情可以很简单,也可以很复杂吧。哪,何谓简单,何谓复杂?

对我来说呢,简单是因为你可以很纯真的爱她,可以不顾一切的爱她,保护她,关心她。还有什么呢?连周杰伦都唱“简单爱”啦。

复杂又是什么呢?你以为可以接受她的缺点,可是你同时也很在意。你愿意对她付出一切,可是你同时也期望回报。耐性少了,缺点看大了,忍让度小了,你开始觉得累了。

两个人在一起不简单的。爱情也不可能简简单单吧。当你爱的人,不是爱你的人,是复杂,是辛苦。当爱你的人,你却不爱她,是烦恼。当你们在一起了,却发现你需要的,他给不到,他不适合你。可是人就是需要爱情。没有爱情的世界,是很苦闷。人就需要一个伴,生活才精彩。所以,左右为难。

突然间很想听到你们对爱情的想法。我很期待一个简简单单的爱情,难道是那么的困难吗?爱情就是那么复杂吗?如果你拥有一个简简单单的爱情,那你要好好珍惜咯。

p/s: 简单的华语吧

Marriage: Angela 2009.02.21

Remember my old post, that Rebecca get wed? Not long later, it’s now her sis Angela…i really admire them…they found their Mr. Right…get engage…i mean like simply engage (not that simply i mean)…get register as formal or legal husband and wife first…then only they plan and save money for their ceremony…

I say, many couple would plan long enough to get all this settled at one…one year to prepare all the registration, wedding dinner location and dishes, decent dress and photography…etc..but not these two couples…but who cares…they love each other…they are fate to each other…they are so determined to each other…and now they were husband and wife…!!

Congratulation…!!!

Umai-ya : Lunch Buffet

Had been hearing Umai-ya and pass through thousands time by their Damansara Uptown outlet…but never really dine in…and I miss the chance going Umai-ya once during doris’s birthday (last 2 years)…so i say, why not we go Umai-ya this time…their lunch buffet is quite affordable and many reference making their menus quite attractive to us…rather than we spend valentine’s meal which cost you a lots with their normal set dinner…right…??

We been to Xenri for their buffet lunch before…but is quite dissatisfied as they offer normal sashimi, sushi and grills…and we couldn’t digest much of the sticky rice…so i put a higher expectation in Umai-ya…hope it offer more choice with some speciality…well, since just two of us, we really can’t order many choice..full to the limit…lol…

While Xenri allow us to take the food ourselves, Umai-ya has their own buffet menu where you have to tick and order…it’s a lots of choice and the first order we already make the table full with sushi, sashimi and etc…it’s quite delightful…yeah…
