The darn internet access at my office was dead since morning and it was before lunch that I received a text message on my phone. It went something like … Jimmy : Oei!! Oei!! Jimmy : Where are you? Why are you offline?!! Me : Internet access dead. Why? Jimmy …
What Lens Huh?
I told myself that I should go get some sleep but my fingers were itchy. I needed to take some photos but it is already late at night. I am too tired to go out for some night photography but I sure need some de-stressing after another crappy day at …
Early X’mas Presents
I remember a couple of years back, my first Christmas present for that year came early … in the form of a package from Lensbaby. This year … it is like deja vu … a juicy parcel landed at my office the day I started work after my short vacation! …
Oh Phew!!!
Phew!!!! It is Friday night and this must be one of the happiest one in quite a long time. Finally I can take a week off from work and go for a short trip … away from the crazy stack of work that is after me. I’ve yet to pack …
One For Insomnia
Not sure of it a case of coffee overdose or there is something else that’s keeping me awake. I should be sleeping earlier after the last couple of long nights (blame the beer) but I just couldn’t do so. Grrrr! I thought I could spend some time tidying up my …

Kipon Tilt Adapter
My dream of getting a tilt-shift adapter to use on my Olympus E-P1/E-PL1 went crashing out of the window when I found out that a Japanese company/shop was coming out with one that costs about US$400. That’s a lot of money for an adapter and I gave up all hopes …
Swirly Got Appy!
The Lensbaby’s ‘Get Appy!’ contest results is finally out! The contest was about submitting designs and sample photos of our own custom aperture discs and (as usual) at the last minute … I managed to do up a simple aperture disc design and took some test shots for submission. I …
Spinner : First Look
I know it ain’t cheap but I thought to spend about S$200 on such a special newly invented weird camera is worth the pain. Well that’s what I thought … until some friend told me it is more like a copy of another camera. Huh? Really? I’ve never seen one! …
