Our Neighbor

I always fascinate by astronomy and space. Since Moon is the closest planet to earth, decided to give a try shooting with my available gear, with Sigma 70-300 F4-5.6 mouthed on a steady tripod and ballhead.

Guess what? I have problem of too much light to get sharp image... unbelievable!! No choice, with shutter speed at 1/1250 sec, F5.6 at 270mm. Will attempt again soon to improve(when have the right gear - I don't mean to have scoping stuffs).

If you have any suggestion, please let me know.

Petronas Twin Tower


Another 2 photo of Petronas Twin Tower from different angle.


1) I need to shot this via lying down flat in front of the KLCC entrance.

2) I love this shot the most.

Petronas Twin Tower

Althought Petronas Twin Tower is not the world highest building anymore, I still stuck by it awesome view. Ever so impressive, especially when the twin tower light up at night. Here is my shot handheld : -

I always enjoy looking how a flower petals closing up to the centers.

She love me, she love me not, she love me, she love me not, She love me, she love me not, she love me, she love me not, She love me, she love me not, she love me, she love me not, She love me, she love me not, she love me, she love me not, She love me, she love me not, she love me, she love me not.................

Flowers & Plants - Ray of Light

A sudden ray of light on the subject made things seem more interesting.

Flowers & Plants
My current favorite subjects. Collected quite a numbers of them, guess it is time to display some of them to share with all.

I found below subject in North South Highway, at Jelapang stopover. Don't know what it is called, do let me if anyone know about it. Shot it with Sigma 70-300mm APO, under Macro mode.

Prosperity God (Chai Sen) - Indian Version

Today is final day of Chinese New Year celebration.

However, my photo is nothing to do with ChapGoMeh. It is a Prosperity God that I saw during the CNY Open House in Penang. The unusual about it is that he was an indian. When I saw him, he was greeted with lots of crowd. Lucky for me, when I asked him to post for me, he gladly did althought he was tired and sweating heavily(under thick uniform).

Happy ChapGoMeh(aka Chinese Valentine Day) everyone!!

The lanterns will be cover almost every available spots and will be light up every evening around 7:30 pm till dawn. Below are some of them,









Pagoda with lanterns






lanterns covering every corner
















Buddha statues

Mom's Garden - Part 3 (Trilogy)

The final subject is the most interesting one. One of the reason I decided to go for a DSLR is because the shutterlag is significantly less compare to P&S. I thought that I could shoot fast moving object easily.... well, it is still pretty difficult as I found out. Been trying hard to capture a decent photo of bird for month, all I get is only blur, out of focus, no bird etc... total failure.

Until now, I learn some skill along the way. The most important is patient. I don't know what species is it (do let me know), below are 3 of my best:

Acrobat
























Lunch Time














Singing

Mom's Garden - Part 2 (Trilogy)

The second set of photo is also bee, but another type. I found that there are 3-4 type buzzing around. However, I only able to capture the 2 of them and here goes:

Mom's Garden - Part 1 (Trilogy)

During the Christmas weekend, I went back to my hometown in Ipoh. There is some interesting subjects in my mom's garden. First subject(my favorite), Bee. I didn't bring along my Macro lens and have to make use the D70s kit lens. It is quite scaring as I need to virtually stay close to the subject. At time, the bee will be iritated and fly around me to investigate what I'm doing (or maybe as warning to buzzzz off).

Happy New Year
