Sunsets at Kuala Belait

I have left Kuala Belait and are now back in Malaysia. Only thing I miss from there is the walk at the beach during the evening. Being a city person, I did not have the experience of living close to a beach. Therefore, each day being there provides me a unique oportunity to capture a different sunset. Below are some good ones taken with my LX3, over the course of one month.

High lighthouse

We went to Bukit Melawati after our lunch break. Nothing interesting there: a small museum, lots of monkeys, and a light house (yes, that's why we were there). The sun was harsh, but luckily there's enough clouds as background to spice up the photos. High lighthouse , originally uploaded by Ho Swee Ching .

Evening at Arc de Triomphe, Paris

Image
Continuing from my last post on Paris , here some shots of the Arc de Triomphe , located at the centre of the Place Charles de Gaulle in Paris. It was drizzling that evening and it was difficult to get the shot shown above (setting up tripod, having people looking at you, wiping rain droplets off the lens etc). Still, those element gave a bit more drama to the shot, especially where cars had their head light on due to low light situation. Pedestrian underpass is available to reach the center of the arch. While I was setting up my tripod, the French police stopped me from doing so, said the tripod might damage the floor. Floor is made of stone, while my tripod legs have rubber tip... Anyway, not wanting any trouble with the police, I put down my backpack, rest my camera on the bag and took the shot above. Finally, the arch was lit for the night. Got better colour with this shot, done without tripod. As with most historical monuments here in Paris, the arch has plenty of intricate desig...

Ejecting the Gear-Head Mentality

Image
After posting my Nikon D300 and battery grip for sale for two weeks on a local online photography forum, I finally found a suitor which propose the right market price. With that, we arrange a place to meet, and I bid "farewell" to the best digital camera I ever had for 18 months. Good condition Nikon D300 camera. Unfortuantely, digital products loose it's value too soon. Battery grip MB-D10, seldom used. It's been two weeks since then, and within this two weeks, there was this withdrawal syndrome I experienced, where I felt the tendency to grab a new camera ASAP. However, I've constantly reminding myself not to position myself in a situation, where 18 months later, I have to go through this same cycle again, painful, due to the depreciation of the gears is so damn fast. It's time for a "time-out" In my opinion, the D300 is a very good camera, capable of shooting various kind of shots. I've done lots of weddings with it, and a dozen of other thing...
