29.03.08 - A New Project
Posted in: Gathering with Friends
Today, I was invited to shoot a new, interesting project by a couple friends. It’s not something I am very passionate about but they did trigger that switch in me, and makes me feel like doing more similar stuffs (not exactly the same, but similar, =p).
As the photographer (lol..), I think I failed to deliver products they expect, perhaps due to my inexperience and lack of planning. Anyhow, I think it’s a good start. =)
Yea, this post is very abstract, haha, I am not even sure if I would put up a proper post for this project, I’ll have to see if I have enough not that bad good shots to showcase, hehe.
OH NO, SCHOOL REOPEN SOON! DARN IT DARN IT DARN IT! I need summer holiday….
^ Something I did a couple months ago, when I was roaming at uncle’s backyard. He has quite some treasure in there, found this dusty rear mirror on his mountain motorcycle. =p
lol…)
Once again, I am overwhelmed by ChiHo’s 50mm f/1.8, and is really tempted to get myself one although it won’t AF (auto focus) on my D40. I really, really love this small and cheap glass (it’s about B$150) which delivers superb optical quality despite the fact that my MF (manual focusing) technique is still fairly amateur. The only drawback is that I can let others handle the lens because you need to practice before you can MF accurately, so yea, no photo of me to be taken with it, LoL.
Anyway, let’s get back to the gathering. Well, I reached there at around 11am, thinking that lots of people must had already been there, but no, I was the second to arrive, poor YiHuey were alone (excluding the owner, Derick) there for almost an hour, until I came, lol. I wouldn’t go into the details of what we did that day, overall, it was a very fun and enjoyable gathering, thanks Derick. =) 
and the auto setting didn’t turn out that well, so I was firing the flash manually most of the time. Quite a number of the photos taken are not well exposed and hence need to be corrected in Photoshop, still, it rawks! Thanks buddy (ChiHo)! Will do strobing with ya when I get SB-600, hehe.
