Gundam Freedom: I pp (post processing) the first one to higher contrast, while the 2nd one I intentionally shoot it out of focus with no pp done. I like the 2nd more than the first one though.

Happy Birthday to Dad. 15thMarch2009

I suppose to go Miri today for a 1 day youth conference, but after confirmed that we will be celebrating my dad birthday tonight, I decide not to go for the conference, instead of staying at home.  p001

Some simple yet mealty meals, didn't have chances to take any photo of the foods. Anyway, it contents Beijing duck, roast duck, grill lamb, satay, vege.... come with durian, fruits and ice cream cake.... oh my I think I can feel my blood sugar start shooting up lia >w<

While we have a Father on heaven, but in anyway, we still have to treasure our father on earth with respect, honour and love that due unto him ^w^

Photoshop, no wonder peoples love it

  Been working overtime for the last few days, and finally done with the database processing for 1 of my clients. It was such a stress relief knowing that I done with the job for now.... :p

After I started to get a bit serious with photography, it also get me into playing and learning more with using photoshop to enhance my photo. While some might consider as cheating, as for me I have learned the lesson that 95% of the peoples don't care of how you processing the photo, they only want to see the result!!! It is the same way when I pick up my guitar and play in front of the congregation, they don't care what guitar I use, what amp I played, how I played it. All they need is the music to sound nice and they can go into the time of P&W.

         Here is the original photo                               VS                                              Photoshoped

P008                          P006

I don't usually use heavy filter on my photo, but sometime it is necessary to turn a boring photo to some interesting photo. While the result still has plenty of room for improvement, I am quite happy with how it turn out. At least I learned a new trick and tools to play around with my photo ^w^

We are surround by forest, but we don't live on the tree

p002

Sometime peoples from the other countries has this false perception that Brunei peoples live on the tree house or water village. While sometime we cannot blame them because so far tourist industries has advertised Brunei with Temburong rain forest, water village etc, while it cannot compete with Singapore or KL, it doesn't mean we live in tree house. :p

But what I like about Brunei is that it indeed is surround by trees and forest, where you can hardly see it in big cities like Singapore, KL, Perth etc. Due to the low populations (approx 350 thousands), the density of the crowds, air pollution, traffic jam and crime rate is also consider really low compare to some other countries. Personally, I feel safer when I go around Brunei compare to Malaysia, I not so worry about issues like robbery, pick pocket, fights coz all this hardly happen.

But of cause everything has it pro and cons, Brunei market is limited due to populations, you can't really get the latest stuffs /fashion /gadget as fast or cheap to some other nations. That's why peoples always travel to Miri, Singapore, KL, KK for holiday and shopping.

Overall, Brunei is a very peaceful country though sometime boring :p If you like your life to be slow and easy, Brunei is one of the place where you can consider.

Been really busy lately, and feeling really tire now. Even though today is a sat, I have to work overtime during the afternoon, then head to Youth for meeting, fetch Lily & Michelle home, then head out to P&W practice again. By the time I finished and reach home is was around 10plus lia. XD

Day 03

It seem like it getting harder and harder each day as I try to get something new from surrounding. Didn't really have a good week though, this week is really busy with work, and I find that I started to get frustrated very easily over how peoples perform their work . I think I need to set my  mind straight or else I might blown. :p

This is my neighbour dog, everyday without fail he will sit in front of the gate and look out, as if he is waiting for the master to be back any time soon.

Stay tune and see what I can come out on day 4

A photo a day part 2

P004

Trying to catch a good photo and upload it everyday is more difficult that I thought. While trying to source for pictures to take I also cannot forget that I am working also :p

I took this one after I done with my client site, and saw the boat passing by, so I quickly turn on my cam and shoot, the result was ok at best. To some of my friend who stay at the bigger cities, most properly this are not common view for them.

A Photo a day project?

 

P001 copy

I ran across a photography tutorials web site where they challenge the readers to do a self portraits photo for 365days, one of the reason is that it force you to be creative. While I think it is a great idea, but asking me to shoot myself and load it up online everyday make me feel plain weird :p

Then it came to me that why don't I try to upload a photo I took and blog about it, a blog without any form of media is boring anyway. The photo above is our neighbour cat, giving me a weird look when I called him ( or her?) XD
