..but she did apologize and resigned from her jobs, but only after getting it from a lot of OFWs. So now her future article in whatever magazine is called Fierce and Fabulous.. and F*d Up.

Canon EOS D40 er 40D

Interesting.. I have just hit the 10,000 shot with my Nikon D40 (sweetly enough, the 10,001st shot was Enzo with his Cake :p) and here comes an interesting development from Canon.. the EOS 40D (what's with the D's and the 40's??) -

Get this: for something like S$2k, it's got a 28-135mm standard kit lens, 10Mp, uses DIGIC III (the latest digital rebels, 350D and 400D, still use DIGIC II), and a 6.5fps (frames per second) count.. whoa, that's gonna be perfect when the F1 race comes to town.. It's also got a "live view" mode for awkward shots (like ground macros, etc) where you can preview the shot in its 3" LCD screen.. (much like the compact digitals) Hmm..

Nuninuninu.. Either that, or to save my current lens set, I'd target this:

..now when will that be.. probably in a year's time.. unless someone decides to sell their old D200 camera body.. hehehe :p

Happy Birthday Enzo!

Little India in Singapore

Excerpts from the Uniquely Singapore website:

"The first Indian settlers in Singapore arrived with Sir Stamford Raffles as assistants and soldiers back in 1819. In the late 19th century, many more Indian immigrants arrived to find work, be it as labourers to build roads or to take up key positions in the civil service."

"Today, Little India is the focal point of Singapore's Indian community. Its spice-scented streets beckon you to a cornucopia of ethnic jewellery, jasmine garlands and silk saris. From the large Tekka Centre and Little India Arcade to the small provision shops, Little India is packed with interesting things to discover... Witness also the faith of devotees during the colourful and ritualistic Thaipusam in Jan/Feb each year."

CBD on a Rainy Day

This is a postcard from the 1980s, taken using a Kodak Instamatic camera.


Nope.

It's what you get when you accidentally click your shutter while trying to clean your blurry lens from too much raindrops.


Perhaps the CBD area is the most photographed scene in Singapore, (or is the Esplanade?) Anyway here are some tryout shots, each taken after a rainy weather and between 7-730 pm. The timing is crucial depending on the effect one wants to achieve.. In a span of a few minutes, and several exposure adjustments, the results are way varied..


7:27pm, ISO 200, F/22, 10 sec exposure



7:31pm, ISO 200, F/22, 10 sec exposure



7:32pm, ISO 200, F/22, 10 sec exposure
