I have traded my faithfull D90 再見D90 ..

... for the D7000, 

the D90 has been with me faithfully for more then 3 years, 

It's tough to let go as we had good times together; 

I missed the feel of the D90 

but I am loving the output of the D7000 

...

From 33rd Floor Skybar at Traders Hotel, KLCC
Shot using the D7000 with 10-24mm Nikkor

Amazing Canon G12 异乎寻常的G12 ...

Lugging around the DSLR and a Tripod for 

night photographing 

after a full day of lecturing has become a burden, 

few nights ago, 

I tried my luck with the Canon G12 without a tripod

Love-Hate HDR 爱恨高动态范围摄影 ...

I heard about HDR photos last year when I first
bought my DSLR,
the more HDR photos I see,
I realized that one can either hate or love them
...
Some professionals I came across 
seem to find the whole idea of HDR to be
offensive and an insult to their photography
...

The picture was shot at F18 10mm hand held 3 shots of -1, 0, +1
and used photomatix to process it before finishing touches in lightroom

Past and Present 过去和现在 ...

The one single charm

Suria, KLCC 

Done at the 10mm tip of the 10-24mm Nikon,
but I did not open aperture at its widest and work at the range
of F5 and above at ISO 640 and shutter speed of 1/60 with -1 exposure compensation ...

I am re-visiting places familiar to me with 

the new Nikon 10-24mm wide angle ...

I have previously took shots of the interior of this structure using

the Nikon 18-105mm at the maximum of 18mm prime lens ...
It is really different when you look at the view finder of
a 10mm compared to an 18mm

The difference of 8mm is really something else ...

I don't think I will ever shoot beyond the 10mm of the

Nikon 10-24mm ...

I am still learning how to deal with so much that can go into
the 10mm composition
in my second day using the wide angle lens ...

Not the world's tallest 不是世界上最高的 ...
