Trip to the USA in mid-2004

December 15th, 2006

2004 was an exciting year, not least because the Nikon D70 was first made available on the shelves, and the early owners of the camera, me included, were active on the Nikon D70 (as it was known as then) forum of DPReview.com.
Some of us became great online friends, and when I had the opportunity to [...]

Life Was Good Back Then

December 12th, 2006

I remember the 1930’s - life was simple and straightforward for Kellie and me. We were thankful to have an abundant supply of logs for our needs, and didn’t worry about noise and grain in our photos the way most photographers do now.
These days, I get a cluster migraine trying to come up with a [...]

Curled Stem

December 12th, 2006

This was a RAW file shot with my Nikon D70 plus a Nikkor 28-200mm G lens with a Hoya +4 closeup filter slapped to the front of the lens.
Postprocessing was done entirely in Google’s Picasa software. I’m quite sure the Picasa program doesn’t deal directly with the RAW data itself, but rather with the embedded [...]

Night View From A Room In The First World Hotel, Genting Highlands

December 11th, 2006

It looks like the 598px x 900px image dimensions of my pitcher plant photo is a bit too wide for this blog’s template, so I’ve shrunk the picture in my second “photo post” to 500px x 752px.
This photo was taken with the Nikon D70 on a tripod. It was shot RAW, and the NEF file [...]

Pitcher Plant

December 11th, 2006

Yes, there’s a pitcher plant in my garden - I find them a fascinating species.
This image was rotated, resized and one-step sharpened in Irfanview - my tool of choice for quick image editing and if no curves or levels are required.
And this is also the first “photo post” on this blog - I’m just interested [...]

My Personal MacBook Quest

I’m now a proud owner of a MacBook Pro. The iMac’s gone to my parents.

Me Ra Koh’s Photography Blog

December 11th, 2006

I stumbled upon this wonderful photography blog from reading this forum thread about how she doesn’t recommend the Canon EOS 5D for weddings.
Yeah - you get to meet all sorts of personalities on forums.
Back to Me Ra Koh’s blog - it has tons of useful tips for photographing children. Understandably, it’s geared towards Moms in [...]
