No? Let me zoom in a bit.

I was once a die hard Nikon supporter. In the last 3 years I owned two Nikon DSLR bodies (D70 and D40), one Nikon SLR body (FM10), many Nikon lenses including the famous 70-200 mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S VR, and both SB-600 and SB-800 Speedlight Flashes. My photography interest includes still life, portrait, nature, events […]

It was a hard decision to make. I was with the previous one for about 3 years, and I had fun with her. But then, there’s problems that cannot be solved, and there’s more things I am looking for that she cannot offer.
So, I dumped her and got myself a new one within one day.

Recently tried this setup with easy to get materials and only one external flash. I used my Mont Blanc Starwalker as model.
Effect came out to be rather good. Of course post-processing is still necessary.

The clear folder box is lifted up, using a piece of normal printing paper as backdrop. Flash was placed below the folder […]

Went with school on the 23rd Feb. The aerial display was great. However, crowd control was rather bad both while entering and leaving the show.

*Note: too lazy to put watermark, but I still have copyright for all the photos here.

Was waiting for a phone call yesterday afternoon in school, and saw this patch of grass beside the stair case. The tiny flowers look fresh despite the strong 1PM sunlight.
So I made use of what I have in hand, my Nokia 6500 Slide, and managed to capture this photo thanks to my phone’s auto focus […]
