Going really WIDE

Okay, why I'm going to Miss Penang is that there's not many places in Malaysia that when you buy a new gear for your camera or perhaps a new camera itself, where you get out of the camera shop and Tadda!!, you're smack in the middle of a place where there's so many things to shoot! So I took it for a nice Urban Shooting session and found some really nice spots in Penang street.

That's exactly what I did. Went to the Shop, got out of it VERY poor but happy and shutter-friendly. I bought myself the Sigma 10-20mm F4.0-5.6 EX DC HSM. I got a sharp copy and absolutely happy with it. You know, there's just no wider lens in the Nikkor line up except for the fisheye of course. The Nikkor 12-24 costs about 2.5 times more, not as wide, so go figure.


Stay tuned for more blogs this year guys.

Images from Chirstmas Eve and Christmas!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

2008 was truly a year of change, and I have no doubt that 2009 will bring life changing experiences to a whole new level! Anyway, I had the chance to return to my hometown, Kuching on Christmas eve and celebrated Chrismas, then returned to Penang on the 26th, and in another twist, went back to Kuching on the 31st dec for My cousin's Wedding. Here's a compilation of images taken on my trip back. I bought a Nikkor 50mm f1.4 Ai-S lens and from what you'll see, is light years away from the f1.8 version. Christmas is also the anniversary of my photography! I started taking pics when I was 12, But I got my first film SLR on Christmas 2000. Things have truly changed hasn't it?
