Photowalk - Images !

Here they are! :) There's one at my flickr too !

Hey Nadiah !

Seri Saujana Bridge

Not much, I know. But there's more, I just decided not to post them now ! The last image captioned "Seri Saujana Bridge" is the first image (s) I captured and converted via Digital Blending. Its not as dramatic as I would have thought, or maybe I just didn't do it right. But, I'm convinced that using ND Grads are better. One, because you get to adjust the dark-clear area of an image by simply moving the filter, or by using stronger/weaker filters. Two, for half-blinded people like me, it saves us the trouble of looking at the sickeningly bright pc monitors ! So now, I'm saving to purchase some Cokin ND Grads. My wallet is getting emptier by the moment.

I have another image that I used the Digital Blending technique, but I'll upload them later ;) 

Oh yes, Christmas is in less than a week !

new photos - coming up soon

Hello !

Photowalk is over ! I went with 3 others to Putrajaya, and it was a whole load of fun! The day started off well enough, had a good lunch, I had waffles too. We then head over to the beautiful Putra Mosque. Unfortunately the mosque isn't completed yet, and we didn't get a good spot to take pictures from. Final destination : Seri Saujana Bridge. Another disappointment was there to meet us, as the skies were gloomy and the sun was already disappearing at around 6.30pm. The few positives I can take from today is I'm getting better at manual focusing with the Zeiss 2/35, I tried bracketing again (this time with a tripod and all the frames looked inline to me) and finally, I burned a lot of fat from all the walking! Its now 10pm and after that marathon, I can't quite get myself to the pc and upload the photos I took today. So, I'll upload them tomorrow, so make sure to check back !

This is my fav. shot of my trip to Putrajaya yesterday. Simple one, building and sky. Shot this one on the D700 with 2/35 attached, wide-open. No post-processing applied, only border and watermark.
