Yum Cha at Zilver
Went out to the city today for yum cha; haven't had yum cha for ages, and it's been even longer since I've had yum cha out in the city; I can't even remember the last time. The restaurant was called Zilver, opposite Capitol Square next to the tram line, and the food was alright, nothing special, the standard yum cha fare. Had my K-7 and Sigma 50/1. ( Read more... ) -
No More Flickr Pro
My Flickr Pro account expired a couple of days ago, and I doubt I'll be renewing it anytime soon. It's also partly why this LJ's been a bit more active again, because if I have a link to a photo's photo page from here, it won't matter if my photo is older than the 200 newest photos limit that is in place for free flickr accounts. We'll see how long ( Read more... ) -

Sculpture by the Sea 2010 - Predawn Photo dump
As with last year, a sunrise photoshoot and Sculpture by the Sea with the guys from Exposure was on the the cards again. I had a few ideas, and something that I really wanted to do, so instead of doing sunrise, I decided to get there really really early, way before dawn and do some night time shooting by myself, before meeting up with the other ( Read more... ) -
Batman Figure and .308 Winchester
Was a bit bored at home for a few days, so mucked around with my flash units and took a few photos. Ended up with three that weren't terrible

Car Crashed
So yeah, while I was out yesterday morning, I crashed the car. I won't go into too much detail here because I just can't be fucked, but the car ended up hitting a curb, with the front left wheel area damaged. The car was undrivable afterwards and it had to get towed. Photos can be found here and hereCalled the insurance agency today, and it turns ( Read more... ) -
Journal Updating
Hey LJ, looks like I've been neglecting you again. Yep, I've been quite lazy, but here's a post to talk about what I've been doing this last month or so. Uni wise, I decided that I wasn't going to bother persisting with my DipEngPrac, so dropped that, did a graduating internal course transfer, and now I'm eligible to graduate in late September.

Some Studio-Style Shooting
Recently I got my first taste of shooting photos in a studio style environment, with a backdrop and lights, and a model, etc. It was really Annie who was up for a shoot with a model, and she had some gear, enough to turn her living/dining room into a small studio, so I decided to see if I could tag along and have a bit of fun as well. Things were ( Read more... ) -
YongNuo RF-602 Wireless Flash Triggers
Since my Cactus V2s wireless flash triggers decided to stop cooperating with me earlier this month, I've been looking around for replacement triggers. I was quite set on the Phottix Atlas units, but they are relatively big and quite expensive, and no one has seemed to have tested them on the Pentax system, so I decided to hold off on them for now.

Turimetta Sunrise
Another weekend, another morning, and another sunrise shoot. This one would be all the way up at Turimetta Beach, up North Narrabeen way, and I wouldn't be alone either. There'd be three vehicles, with seven people in total in attendance. Up at 03:00 and out the door by 04:00, I made a passenger pick up before making a Maccas pit stop: small orange ( Read more... )
