Splashy Morning

Spent half a day at a pool with Fitzand and some of his classmates today. The school/childcare will be organizing swimming lessons for the kiddos next year and this morning was an intro course to let the parents know what the kiddos will be doing. Of course my little boss …

HorusBennu Thumb Grip

After playing with the Fujifilm X10 for some weeks, one definite thing I wanted to do was to hunt for a thumb grip as the little grip at the back of the camera was of not much use (blame my fat thumb). My thumb is always resting on a corner …

Crossing My Path #2

One of my favorite past time when on vacations is to wander around on the streets taking random snapshots of people. Unlike some who prefers interacting with their subjects, I prefer my subjects ‘raw’. This means I wanna capture them in the most natural situations without them smiling for the …

HK : Fun, Aches, Kitty

Too lazy to start packing up for my trip back to Singapore … so I’ll just sleep on it til tomorrow morning and hope I can still make it to catch the flight at noon. It has been a wonderful trip with lots (and lots) of eating and a bit …

Get A (Better) Grip!

Planes, Sun, Fun!

Taking a break from the madness of work, I took a day off and told Fitzand’s teachers that I’ll be bringing him out for some ‘fun’ today. We joined Jimmy & Noreen for a trip to the RSAF (Republic of Singapore Air Force) Open Day preview today and as expected …

X-100 All Dressed Up

Finally time to post some photos of my X-100 … all ‘dressed up’ and looking pretty. Yeah I know … I know … it ain’t a rangefinder but just a ‘Casio rangefinder’ (a friend calls it that) that tries to look like a retro camera. 😀 Let’s not go there. …

Beautiful Morning

It is a public holiday today and it has been a beautiful day so far. 😀 Just a quick entry to share this pano photo I took this morning. Click on it for a larger version.
