Wednesday Clicks

February 12, 2009

After enjoying a long weekend and actually playing golf again at the Bangi Equitorial resort after a long hiatus, I must say that I became faily tanned and realised that I may be alergic to the sunblock I bought. There were some interesting photos I took over the weekend on my Facebook profile, mainly taken with my iPhone and then uploaded them via Maxis 3G. Here are this week’s Wednesday Clicks.

  • Sick of your old camera equipment and you really feel like you would need the latest spanking new camera body or that new lens? Well, here is a good reality check for you.
  • If you have recently upgraded to Adobe Lightroom 2 and was wondering what new feature that was in it, do check this tutorial out. Very nifty and simple especially if you are unfamiliar with layers.
  •  Here is an interesting link in the event you feel as if you are having a mental block especially if you are a photographer. Something similar to breaking writer’s block.

I can’t wait for this weekend with another round of golf with my friends. I am leaving this week’s Wednesday Clicks (ok, it is still Wednesday in Hawaii!) with a strip from one of my favourite comic strips.

I shot Bernard and Huay-Sien’s wedding together with Ian under the WeddingStory banner and I finally am blogging about it. I can’t believe how busy it is these past couple of months but I am glad for the recent Chinese New Year. Here are some of my shots from the wedding shoot.

I got loads more of photos to upload but recent crappy internet speeds is prohibiting me from loading more photos and I seem to be having problems with WordPress’ flash uploader.

25 Things About Me

February 5, 2009

Alright, this started out in Facebook when ShaolinTiger tagged me hence I decided to write 25 things about myself (don’t worry, a Facebook version will also be available) and at the same time, hope to learn about you as well.

Rules: Once you’ve been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it’s because I want to know more about you.

  1. I was born in Malacca but lived all of my life in the PJ/KL area. I used to call Malacca my hometown but the real meaning of a home town is starting to make me think twice.
  2. Blue is my favourite colour
  3. I shoot with a Nikon camera all because the Nikon D40 was the camera I saw first and bought on an impulse buy at 1 Utama.
  4. I love using my MacBook Pro especially when I am on the go and I love playing with the iPhone.
  5. I have an iPod classic with 80Gb of memory space but all I do is watch videos on it.
  6. I love eating chicken rice
  7. I tried to carry the Thomas Cup when I was young but it was way too heavy for me. That was when Rashid Sidek won the cup in 1992.
  8. Former first stringer Liverpool goalkeeper, Jerzy Dudek signed my Liverpool cap when I was at Anfield.
  9. Bumped into Thierry Henry at NikeTown in downtown London.
  10. I graduated as an engineer and am no longer working as an engineer.
  11. I used to design video camcorders (mini DVs) at JVC.
  12. I like to play badminton, futsal and slowly picking up golf at the moment. My swing is horrible though.
  13. I love watching TV series such as CSI, Numb3rs, How I Met Your Mother, Two and A Half Men, House, Greys Anatomy, Prison Break, 24, Kitchen Nightmares, Hells Kitchen and many more!
  14. I loved the Kitchen Nightmare series filmed in the UK where Gordon Ramsay transformed a failing restaurant around but the US series is also as great as the restaurant owners are a little more arrogant and not willing to listen to Gordon’s advice.
  15. Whenever I get the chance to sit down in front of a TV with Astro, the first channel I will select would be 411 and then 412 and 413 followed by 703, 701 and 707.
  16. I follow a lot of photography blogs, I just counted 43 of them in my Google Reader.
  17. My favourite holiday was when I went to the Czech Republic, it was totally awesome!
  18. I want to really take good photographs and improve on my skills so I can actually put something into my new photoalbum and have something to show as my portfolio.
  19. I am a total gadget freak except that GPS units don’t really intrigue me enough.
  20. I wish that Malaysia would change for the better in the near future.
  21. I am totally overweight, I need to lose weight fast!
  22. Although I may be lively at times but I always appreciate a nice and quiet day where I can waste my time sipping Starbucks coffee and watching TV series in bed.
  23. I drink a lot of coffee every day.
  24. I love my Taylor guitar although I haven’t played it in a while now.
  25. I am wondering what should I do with the snooker cue which I had gotten all the way from Sheffield.

Alright, these are the 25 things that came straight to my mind when trying to write this down. If you do read this blog and feel compelled to write 25 things about yourself, don’t forget to link back to this site as I would love to know more about you.

Wednesday Clicks

February 4, 2009

Update: I had to include the last link into this week’s Wednesday Clicks

I guess if there were any other posts here, this blog would then be called the Wednesday Clicks blog. Anyway, let me start off first with a little bit of what has been happening. I read a food review about Popeye’s latest fast food chain here the other day and was extremely curious about the food. Usually I trust certain food reviews but me being a fast food junkie, I headed there last night and decided to try their fried chicken. My review about it? Well, the food is not going to lure me there as I really felt that it was just “so-so”. Nothing spectacular about it and since it is located in the busy area of Taman Tun Dr. Ismail, I doubt that I would be there anytime soon.

Back to the clicks.

More posts coming soon!
