The Way of the Panda

 

... is to sleep. Amen to that.

 

It was hard to take good photos of the pandas through a glass cage. There are reflections in every photo I have of them. :(

To it, it's an orange. To us, it's only a kumquat.

New year, new project

I will be attempting to photoblog so that I make use of my dslr. :]

Fyi, I only have a Canon 550D with an 18-135 IS lens. Have only owned it for 6 months so I'm still learning! ^^

Cute... but I don't see myself owning a pair of these.

what else CAN i do.

So it has been about 3 days since being capped... the worst thing that could ever happen to a Gen Y.

The internet (with fast speeds) is like second to food, you need it everyday to survive. Food and internet go together in daily life, well at least, in mine. I really can't recall much of what I did to spend that time, that is, away from my usual activities of using up the monthly data allowance. The only thing that was on my mind was when tomorrow will come, that my life will turn back to the way it was without ever fearing the word 'capped'.

Looking forward to when I wake up tomorrow morning... minus the bit where work comes a few hours after. Oh how am I going to survive standing up for 8 hours and dealing with the crap that goes on.

Maybe

To get, or not to get? Hmmm...

After trying out some macro shots with my Canon 18-135mm IS lens, I began to think about getting an actual macro lens. I came across the Canon EF 100mm f2.8 Macro Lens from reading reviews about it and now I want! Although it's quite an old model, and isn't IS (which will cost over 1k if it was), the quality of the macro shots produced by it is spectacular.

Description (http://www.dwidigitalcameras.com.au/store/product.asp?idProduct=30)
"Medium telephoto lens with a macro feature for 1x magnification. Fluctuations in spherical aberrations caused by focusing are suppressed and high-quality images are obtained at all focusing distances. With eight aperture blades good background blur is obtained even when the aperture is decreased by one or two stops. A focusing limiter which limits the magnification to 0.25x is built-in."

I know, it's going to rip another large hold in my bank account after buying the dslr not too long ago. It's surprising to know how much photo enthusiasts will spend on lenses and other accessories because I don't think I'd be able to, unless however, I do become one of them and consider photography as a passion.

Photography for me will just be a hobby, an interest amongst many of my other interests, to keep my creative juices flowing and to make me seem cool. ;D (I kid.)

PS. Bought 6 clear front screen protectors for my iphone 4... for 20 cents, and it just arrived today. Waiting for my 2 covers now...
