This photo is one of my two submitted for the Star Search photo contest. It is actually a composite made up of two photos. The tunnel is one of several locations allocated to the photographers to photograph the contestants in anyway we like. However, i am not a big fan of the location. Unlike other contestants who brought assistants and a luggage of strobes, i chose to go into this competition with my Mamiya 645, my trusty Manfrotto 055XPROB tripod and Yanliang's Canon EOS 5DII + 24-105mm f4 as back up. That means that i do not have the luxury of being able to light up the damn tunnel with strobes.

Read MoreAfter several DSLR purchases and three medium format camera (with two digital backs) later, I finally bought a digi-cam for the first time in my life. Kinda ridiculous yeah? But all along i have been using/borrowing others' digi-cam to do the not-important-enough-to-use-dslr occasions. With the Canon Powershot S95, i figured the time was right to finally get one. Some random shots. I won't be doing a thorough review because there already are excellent reviews out there. All images are straight out of the camera and only resizing on PS was done.

Just saw this on cyberspace. I highly doubt i will sell my Canon 5D and spend the rest of my life shooting with this setup, though it is an interesting thought to pair the iPhone4 with a macro lens for flower shooting. Hmmmmm. What do you think?

Ever since my Shooting Home 2009 Reunion Show exhibition, i became interested in making my own prints and hanging them proudly in my house. Sadly, i only managed to get my ass working on one such print today. But instead of keeping the experience of creating a (print + framing) to myself, i decided to put my entire experience into this post. Take note, i spent no more than $20 bucks on the print but that's not taking into consideration of transport.
Read MoreWhen was the last time you heard of a camera maker phasing out a powerful DSLR and replace it with a weaker one? Look no further than Sony Alpha. In phasing out the Sony Alpha-900, they made the lesser Alpha-850 their flagship DSLR instead. Erm.. wtf?
Read MoreNot too long ago, i decided to find out what affects consumer behavior where buying DSLRs is concerned. My theory is that social media has a genuine impact on consumer behavior and more resources should be directed to that effort.
Read MoreAfter two days, I'm still buzzing over Nikon's launch of the 16-35mm f/4 VR. If i was a Nikon user, i'd fancy owning a d700/d3 with this gem and a 50mm f/1.4 That's all i will ever need...
