An Update on my Collection

Since the last update on my purchases, i believed i should update my cameras collection again and so finally i took them out of the cabinet this morning for a photoshoot.

Some updates, i sold away my red gf1 and my minolta 7s and in exchange, i got 2 TLRs, moving towards the medium format path.
My tiny dry cabinet that is insufficient to house anymore things.

I will be saving up for my Canon 400D end of life replacement! Shall update again what i will get in future!

Finally, taking a break

It's been awhile since my last entry and this was because of the amount of assignment that i was tasked to do. Basically, i worked late almost everyday for the past week.
My taxi's receipts are piling up on my tray.

But Despite being so occupied with benchmarking, analysis etc, for once, i did not complain much. My regular telephone & lunch kakis can testify against it.
Instead, i felt so occupied and motivated doing up my assignments.

Guess its partially because of the new job allocation and portfolio assigned to me and also partly due to the good news that came last week on our revised remuneration package!

Well, its just the start of the year, hopefully walking thru the year will be better!

My Photography day @ Tanjong Pagar Railway Station & China Town

Ever since our last photography trip to dempsey, we have been delaying our next trip. It was only till yesterday did we finally meet up again for our photography session.
This round with 2 other new members..CS1 and CS2. (Ops, just realized that i don't know how to spell their names)

I brought half of my cameras collection for this trip. So basically, the pictures are taken purely on films(brand new films that i just received from Thailand), using 3 different cameras.

From my R2A, 35mm f2.5 color skopar and my fuji proplus 100

Pictures from my Yashica Mat 124G, kodak ektacolor 200
My first roll has abit of film underexposed issue. Not sure if the meter is incorrect or is it because of the influence of the lens hood. Nontheless, i think that i will need to run one more roll of film on it to test.
My guess is due to the indoor and outdoor lighting issue. The meter will just catch the sufficient lighting in the area around it.
But at least i am glad that the lens are super sharp for this camera!

Tuned some brightness in the below picture

The day didn't end just at tanjong pagar railway. We extend our session to Chinatown,
the Buddha's Relic temple.

Along the way, my street's habit started acting up again..

海滩的日记

记得我年轻的时候,非常热爱海滩..
在贫困的日子里,海滩带来空闲的欢乐
还记得父亲他怎么把我埋在沙坑里,如何捕捉螃蟹. 从早至晚欢欢乐乐的一天在沙滩这样度过.

随着我的成长,我渐渐的远离这陪伴着我的海边,漂亮繁华城的市取而代之.

几年后的今天当我漫步在这海边上,许多回忆浮现在我的脑海里.

享受着海风,听着海浪的歌,困扰的心也平静多了.

在这片辽阔的海滩,从未出现一个失落的灵魂.

随着我离开,这片海也带走了我的忧虑和烦恼,留下给我的只有我想要的回忆,
