Felina
This shoot was done about a month ago but I’ve only gotten around to work on it 50% recently. The original purpose of the shoot was to do a sketch board story by a friend of mine but sadly I think out of the whole group only 3 managed to get that story right (Nope, I didn’t get ti right as I didn’t have the needed artistic skills).
In any event, the shoot was broken up into 2 parts, an early morning shoot for the sketch board story while another part late morning for a regular shoot.
I must say that Felina is a very sporting and cheery model to work with even after we kept asking her to redo some scenes for us for the sketch board story she happily complied.
So here are the photos taken during the second part of the model shoot. Perhaps one day once I have attained enough skills I’ll go back and work on that first part.
Day 7: Kyoto part 3
16th October 2007.
I decided to today that I would again travel to the Eastern are near Gion and the slowly make my way to the Western side of Kyoto as I wanted to see the life and culture here. Though I would first go to that Tower and get the perfect sunrise shot! That would HAD made my day.
I woke up again at 3am in the Morning, all was quiet, so I began once again the ritual of cleaning up and the cleaned up my gear and set up to go at 4am.
My plan today would go like this:
- Go back Shijo Kawaramachi point. But this time walk south ward on the until Kujo street.
- Then make my way to Toji temple
- Then finally head to Kinkakuji Temple.
Fujiflm Velvia 50

I’ve done an older report before about Fujifilm Velvia 100 so this time I will be reviewing Velvia 50, which is the original legendary landscape film. This film has an interesting history, it was used as the primary landscape film due to its beautiful colors/saturation as well as sharpness and fine grain.
The booth babes of PC fair April 2008 at KLCC
I went to the PC fair last weekend with Andy on Saturday and then with Nick and with my brother on Sunday (yes, I went there for 2 days straight).
My original purpose was to get a nice LCD monitor from Samsung but all the models they had there couldn’t change the viewing level of their monitors. I check every brand I encountered and it was the same, non-adjustable except for titlt . After learning that the view angle of a monitor is important and must be adjustable for comfortable viewing (I learned this lesson first hand after working at Intel for a month and getting a neck sprain), I decided I must buy a monitor with level and title controls but since I found non, I decided to hold off the purchase for another day.
Aside from that there was another reason why I went to the PC fair that unlike the PC fair in Penang, the PC fair in KL always have booth babes! So here are the shots.

FINALLY! Found it!
While I have some pretty good programming skills but I’ll be honest here when I say that my html skills incredibly sucks! I finally managed to to increase the width of the html after looking through the html template codes
/* Outer-Wrapper
———————————————– */
#outer-wrapper {
width: 1000px;
margin:0 auto;
padding:10px;
text-align:$startSide;
font: $bodyfont;
}
#main-wrapper {
width: 700px;
float: $startSide;
word-wrap: break-word; /* fix for long text breaking sidebar float in IE */
overflow: hidden; /* fix for long non-text content breaking IE sidebar float */
}
Just simply change the value for the “width” for both the outer-wrapper and main-wrapper (note the outer-wrapper’s width MUST be more then the main-wrapper’s width or else the side bar will not show up).
With the width made bigger, I will now be able to post bigger pics. Although I won’t go and change all my old previous entries to reflect this change (unless I have the time) but new entries from now on will use bigger pics. (Note, I’ve changed my previous entry to this new size so drop me a line and tell me what you guys think of it.) So until then, pleasant dreams~
Some KL shots

Taken on one of the few days where it had not been raining 24 hours, tip here when taking pictures using a zoom lens like a 70-200mm, be careful of looking into the Sun as the lens will as like a magnifying glass and WILL hurt your eyes if your not careful. I have heard of people who actually managed to start camp fires using their zoom lens when they did not have any means to start a fire.
Do you know what happens when……
You decide to park in someone else’s parking spot? Take a wild guess……

New lessons learned from figurine

Here are some shots I had taken before I left Penang in my small studio that I’ve just uploaded.
