Marinko Matosevic vs Daniel Gimeno-Traver at the Medibank International Sydney Tennis Tournament. This was a really nice match to watch. Matosevic won 6-4 6-1 but I think Gimeno-Traver gave me better photos.

Le Mirage Sunset

admin — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 12:59:33 +0000

During our trip to the Philippines, we stayed for a couple of nights at this place called Le Mirage in Malate (near Manila Bay). I wasn’t too thrilled with the place but at least I got to see one nice Manila Bay sunset.

A few more macro flower photos. The first one is my fave from the series. It looks so alien.

Macroverse

admin — Sat, 20 Jun 2009 08:30:39 +0000

My mother got some flowers for her birthday and I thought I’d take some photos. My first attempt at macro flower shots, I think it turned out okay. I used my trusty EF 50mm f1.8 as well as a cheap macro closeup lens thingie attached to the filter ring. It came with a cheapo wide angle lens I got from eBay.

New Year’s Eve 2008

admin — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 15:00:57 +0000

The Sydney skyline just after midnight, taken from the rooftop of our apartment building. Its my first time taking fireworks pics so I had to learn quickly if I wanted to come away with some nice shots. Luckily there’s a 9pm and a midnight fireworks display. I only got one shot that I was happy with during the 9pm fireworks display but I got a few more at midnight.

I’m mostly happy with how it all turned out but hopefully I get some better ones next year. Hopefully I can get a better vantage point as well.

It seemed very postcard-y. You’ve got the Harbour Bridge in full as well as the Opera House, what more do you want?

A Little Piece of Home

This is called a Parol, which is essentially a Philippine Christmas lantern. It currently hangs on our verandah here in Kingsford. I wish I could go back for Christmas but the Aussie dollar sucks at the moment

Macros Plus

admin — Thu, 27 Nov 2008 00:45:00 +0000

I’ve been busy for the past few weeks and I haven’t been able to get out and take some pics so its just random stuff indoors. I didn’t think any of these deserved to be an individual deviation so I just put them together. These are all taken using my 300D and some extension tubes. I wish I had an actual macro lens.

1. A necklace my wife made.
2. A strawberry.
3. The light from a laser mouse.

4. One of those droplet thingies… I need more practise.
5. One of those arts and craft X-acto knife blade thingies.
6. My brother’s Homer Simpson figurine, the blue comes from my LED torch.

7. A Philippine peso. A lot stronger these days compared to the Aussie dollar which sucks because I really wanna go back.
8. Some earrings my wife made. She loves making them and she’s getting really good at it.
9. A 512mb laptop ram stick.

Stay a While

This was shot from the Royal Botanic Gardens in Sydney. All this time living in Sydney and I just went to the Botanic Gardens yesterday. My better half was hungry and wanted to go home but I really wanted to stay until I got this shot. When we got home, I ended up not cooking dinner right away because I wanted to review my shots. What a crappy husband

Dinner at Tetsuya

admin — Tue, 15 Jan 2008 12:59:07 +0000

The 13 course degustation meal at Tetsuya’s Restaurant in Sydney (although one or two might not have been pictured). At just under $200 per person, it wasn’t cheap but considering how happy it made my wife, it was definitely worth it. At the time, you had to book 6 months in advance but my work colleague changed his mind on their booking 2 weeks before it so he ended up giving it to me.

These pics were taken using a Canon IXUS 60. Too bad I didn’t have a better camera with me but this was when I wasn’t doing much photography.
