'shoot within your equipment's limits' is my motto. i don't easily fall for buying cliche lens. you'll end up carrying a heavy bag on photoshoots, confused of which lens to use on location, or worse owning good lens but not able to maximize its capabilities. the only good thing i can think of is its cool factor. not to mention the $350 worth of workshops, i bet you can easily learn all those techniques on the net, tutorials are priceless nowadays. okay that's just my excuse, coz i'm cheapo =) but i have already set my mind on the next lens purchase, but will need to wait a little more till the manufacturer settles with its new agency here in SG. for now here are my latest dragonfly macros. and thanks for your time dropping by!
Thanks CoedLiza for reviving this song--for me is one of the best ever written. Anticipate, trust your guts, shake your head, walk away, no regrets...move on!
I was born, upside down I felt my grandma put my feet on the ground They put a spoon, in my mouth And everyone was shocked to hear me shout Well i knew i couldn’t take all the dog food that they make I’d just as soon as put myself on a stake and burn
Refrain: I saw it comin’ around I saw it comin’ around, yeah I saw it comin’ around So i just, yeah Shook my head and walked away.
I grew up, in a town Where everybody tried to push me around The girls were alright, but the guys were tough They’re always buggin’ me with macho stuff Well, i ain’t no stupid fighter, i go for flower power I’ve been running every race just to save my face, yeh
(repeat refrain)
Bridge: Well, they try to see if you care It’s just a matter of not begging for more You know it’s really suicidal to just give in With people you can never really be sure– O-hoh when it gets down to this
They’ll eat you up When the words get in your head They’ll get you up It’s a saving grace to have enough When you find yourself in a compromising spot You should know, you shouldn’t take All that dog food that they make You’d just as soon as put yourself on a stake and burn
Refrain 2: You’ll see it comin’ around, You’ll see it coming, comin’ around, When you see it coming around, you just, yeah Shake yer head and walk away Yeah! (walk away) alright! Shake, shake, shake, shake yer head;(2x) Yes, the one you think with..ho —ohhc’mon, c’mon

1st March '08. Twas an ordinary weekend, nothing planned. Stefi and I had the usual afternoon weekend trip to the library to borrow some books: Just outside, we noticed some art competition for kids ages 4-10yrs. Stefi joined and ended up winning. Unfortunately, daddy didn't bring a camera along (not even a camphone) so receiving the price from the stage was undocumented. Congratulations kid!
Had a chance to shoot hdr's in a landscape/plants nursery. In Singapore, having a landscaped garden at their backyard is a luxury. But public parks and landscaped public areas are everywhere (that is why SG is tagged 'a garden city') but you have to be away from the house to enjoy it. Good thing it can be captured digitally. the entire set here: http://glenoe12.multiply.com/photos/album/116/Serenity
