Sunrise

It's been a long while since I last updated my Blog with new photos. So today, it happened that I woke up at 5am and couldn't get back to sleep so, I decided that I would go out to capture the sunrise. So I got changed, packed my camera and walked 15 minutes out from home to capture these shots:-






I am actually quite happy with this set of photos...totally no editing have been done and all photos came straight out of the camera. Maybe I should do more sunrise shots during my next day off.

Of course, besides landscapes, I did try to capture some of the birds out there but my 250mm reach is still not enough to get close shots but I spent some time creeping in the grass trying to get close to these two:-

Update - 1 month on

No photos in this update just a quick reflection of the month that has passed.

Time flies and this blog is already a month old. In that short time so much has happened. Not only have I moved from a Canon Powershot S3IS to Canon 450D DSLR. I also managed to also own 3 lenses which I have found alot of use for.

In the 1 month, I have taken photographs of birds at the Jurong Bird Park, F1 cars at the very first F1 night race and heaps of photos of my son.

I look forward to more photos and have began to plan small projects and hope that I would soon have the time for them.

Jalan Bersar

I had been wanting to go out more to take more photos and today, I got the chance. I thought I'd give RAW a try as I have never had that capability before. It was a really warm and sunny day and I really didn't want to stay out too long so just a few quick shots here.

I went to the Jalan Besar area to take these shots. Surprisingly, I think there are not all that many photos of the area. There are several recondition shophouses with history and some others that have been neglected. However, the colours there were wonderful and when time permits, I will go back and spend more time in the area.
