YES! Snow Leopard! This 28th of August 2009!
I can’t wait for it! Another good operating system! Unlike that crap Windows!
The Best day of my whole computing career was when I decided to literally toss out my windows computer out the real window and buy an Apple computer, I have never looked back since! Best use of my money on a computer EVER!
Also, I’m a sucker for snow leopards in general
How to explain DSLR to someone
Who only got into photography in hopes of taking naked women photos?
I remember getting asked a lot, WAY a lot! Usually such people have barely the cognitive function beyond eating, sleeping and breathing. Its rather odd that once such people get a DSLR and they ask you how it works and how to use it, they then try to impress you with what they already know, which is next to nothing. Allow me to list the weird conversations I have had with people of this type.
The phone wouldn’t stop ringing last night
Ever have one of those surreal events happen to you? Where too many coincidences happen at once triggering a long chain of events? Well I had one of those word stinking events, it all began innocently enough…………..
Some street shots from Penang.
Even though I’ve moved down to KL for more than a year now, I still find myself going back to Penang to shoot street photography of all things as I did back during the few hours before bon odori 2009.
I guess there is something alluring about Penang that I cannot find in KL. The mystery or classic feel of a town that seems to encompass both new and old on one single island.
Where as in KL it feels like everything is either new or just bloody rundown, infested with sinister elements (no wait, I think that’s Putrajaya and not KL).
Whatever the reason or explanation for my feeling this way about Penang, the fact cannot be denied that Penang is indeed a wonderful place with its secret locations for anyone looking for a photography quest.
Pity though that the Penang government doesn’t seems to know how to capitualized on this especially the fact that they have attained UNESCO status (or trying to hold onto it the last I heard).
I did remember the Penang government hosting a photography competition to showscase the best of Penang sights and beauty but from what I heard and read the terms and conditions of that contest was so photographer unfriendly that many were turned off by it. It literally gave the Penang government absolute ownership of any photos submitted to the contest even the ones that didn’t win.
Happy Birthday you Dork!
Yes I know it’s rather vain to announce my own Birthday. But heck, it’s been rather slow.
