Turning 2 …

It’s only about a week to go ’til Fitzand turns two! Still no specific plans on how we are gonna celebrate his birthday, but most probably a simple one at home with some of his favourite yummies. Thinking of getting him a bicycle as his birthday present but yet to …

What an exit!

It took probably 3 to 6 months to arrive but it’s finally here. A free camera strap from SmugMug! They were offering a free straps and stickers through a photography forum in the US, and I happily filled in my name for one. The stickers arrived in a month but …

Not forgotten …

A peaceful late noon and I drove down to the Kranji War Memorial for a quiet little stroll. It started drizzling after a while but I stayed on for some shots. Took some photos using my LC-A+ and also these two digital shots … I read somewhere recently that ‘in …

Not a review!

Seldom does a new digital camera interest me much since I got addicted to toy/plastic cameras but this one was an exception. The Canon SX1 IS camera. Well, the 20x zoom didn’t really matter too much to me as I don’t expect miracles from such a prosumer camera … but …

Stuffin’ yummies!

After that depressing blog entry I made a few minutes ago about ‘killing’ my Leader camera, I guess it’s time to get over it and get back into the happy festive mood! Right after work today, I dropped by Goodwood Park Hotel to collect a durian log cake that I …

Camera cruelty

I had to do it … I had to do it … the voice in my head said so … I had to do it 🙁 Took me hell lot of courage to put an end to this old Leader camera’s life. Before you start cursing me … gimme a …

Woodpecker, Fly!!!

Okay … lame name for this ‘dressed up’ copy of a Blackbird, Fly camera. It’s quite a relief to finally be able to complete work on it. Took me maybe a month (or was it two?) of painful, careful and frustrating effort but it’s all worth it in the end …
