19.04.08 - Shooting Girls Shooting Basketballs

MF (manual focus) + prime lens (can’t zoom lo) + 10 girls running fast in the basketball court + very little light (even when I use f/1.8 and ISO 1600, my shutter speed can hardly go beyond 1/125th second) …

=

… blur, OOF (out of focus) shots and a crazy/pervert-looking photographer, lol.

Seriously, just trying to get some shots done, but it’s catastrophic. These 4 are the only ones which are acceptable. =\ Basically, I am not doing any composition at all, all I do is shoot a lot and hope that 1 out of 10 of them is acceptable. Most of my time was spent on following the ball while MF-ing in split seconds, lol. Tough. =\ Might give it another try in coming matches, depends on whether I can keep up with my schedule or not.

By the way, life took a good turn these days, I am expecting brighter and happier days after my June exams, hehe. =) I am very happy these days, =p

MD HAC Visits to JPMC

Last Wednesday, we (Maktab Duli Health Awareness Club) had a visit to JPMC (Jerudong Park Medical Center).

It was interesting and fun, we get to see luxury rooms (B$800 per month, B$300 per month and such), all the machines and stuffs. I was busy shooting most of the time tho, running to the front of everyone (or tailing at the back) and squeeze from one corner of the room to another corner, just to get the wide-angle shot I want, haha.

Something notable, our ‘tour guide’, Olivia has an amazing accent and very good English, listening to her is enjoyable. =)

Special thanks to JingYi (the President), teacher and Olivia for making this trip such a big success (except for the delay, we reach school at around 5pm+, and some parents were worried I think).

Ok, as usual, I would let the photos do the talking. (Crap, the more I shoot, the less I type. And I think my writing skill is getting worse and worse, although it had never been good)

04.04.08 - I Reached My Ultimate Tensile Stress

Ok, lame title, haha, kind of stress about my Computing these days, blame myself for being ke-kiang but yet lazy, sigh.

According to The Secret, I should think positive, so yea, I am taking a rest now, watched some comedy and did some post-processing, oh yea~ it makes me feel good. =) Watched the DVD (The Secret) this morning, it’s.. quite nice. =)

It’s something that resonate with my philosophy in a number of stuffs, including religions and psychology and etc. However, I didn’t get so into it, yet, it takes time to digest them, probably I should read the book, the movie is a bit too intense. =p (like non-stop streaming of thoughts and ideas into your brain, urgh)

Well, I completed 20% of my project, doesn’t go quite smoothly but I have to believe that I can. =)

Bah, time for the photos to do the talking, hehe, and oh yea, this is the first time I blog on the new Wordpress 2.5, and oh, it’s SO cool! Darn it, they should release this before I decided to go with Flickr! They now have a nifty built-in Gallery system! Grrrr…

P.S: And the full screen post editor is really nice to work with! Especially when you need to move many 500px photos around like me, hehe! Kudos Wordpress developers!
