Pg Bird Park

Went PG bird park for the 2nd time (first time no count, that time still noob). not really alot of stuff to shoot about (and me having max reach of 85mm only fml, some ppl still complain when they have 250x1.5mm) These photos u saw are really close ups (not macro) of the birds. Some of 'em the lens really shoved up their ass faces and some bird retaliated by pecking at my RM190 Kenko lens filter fml.

Business is not really good even when it's a Sunday, considering we're the only customer up until around 11am when a bunch of obnoxious kids appeared out of nowhere to rip the hell out of these poor, malnourished birds. Such is the life of these poor fellas.

A little intro about the bird park. Entrance fee is RM15 for locals (the ticket lady will demand to see your IC) and RM1 for cameras. Entry starts at 9am and can be quite interesting if you slowly spend some time inside. Because most of the birds on display can be touched you can get new experiences with these things (and in the process risk getting bird flu as souvenir).

Emo bird.


Almost liek Robin. Looking at the sky.


Sniping a bird.


A group of flamingo (or whatever their name is)


Bridge over troubled water.

Q: How does the chick cross the road?
A: ???

Another emo bird.

Yet another emo bird.

Pecking at my filter. Damn moody bird. Other birds just walk away when I approach. Apparently not this one.

Feeding from all the nutritious bird shits.

The pride of Sarawak. Available only in Borneo Penang.

Alice in chains.

Trying to break loose and be free. But she could only dream.

Emo bird again =D


After my experience with something longer than 200mm previously(shake/blur/dark aperture), feels like I'm not going to get myself a telephoto lens again. However, I do rather miss those opportunities that is available with something like 70-200mm can offer... But their size always makes me reluctant to buy one because it'll somehow end up in my dry box after all...

Irony

Isn't it strange, when the reason we are (still) together is the frank denial of our devotion for each other?

Roadtrip

Last week's roadtrip.





















From PG--> Sg. Petani --> Kedah --> Gunung Jerai --> PG.
Go make your own conclusions from those pix.

9 Emperor Gods

After surviving on 50% vegetarian food for 9 days finally the torture ends. Go google yourself what is 9 emperor gods. I'm just as clueless as you.

Found out theres a parade near my place so quickly assembled a light strike force to join the mob. Wish there's some nice photos there, and didn't come back disappointed =)


Zombies.

Flag bearers. Someone ask me "beautiful meh? So blur"
I just "......"

Silhouettes.

Erm... Whatcha looking for?

Mom telling son to stop smoking.
Son sulk. Refuse to look at mom.

Enjoying a puff. (risky shot =S)
Just imagine what would happen if i got caught =S


Patung wayang or smth. Gotta excuse the frown there.
She must've worked like 20 hours?

Erm... normal thing people do.

Shin Chan lookalike contestant #5.

Come join teh mob.

Geep.

Gotta love my SLR. Some photos are pushed to ISO51,200, though it's far from perfection in many people's eyes, but the effects are really... nice. At least from my POV..

Autumn in Germany

In Germany for the week, managed to take these pics =D
Not bad, eh? haha... Gosh, I began to liek Autumn!


Diu

diu: A cantonese word for fuck. Commonly used inconjunction with explicit, specific and graphic descriptions of the object that is being fucked.

please: used in polite request; "please pay attention"

Some people mixes these two words up. you say "please" if you want something.
You don't say "Can you give me that? Diu." You'll probably not get what you want.
You say "Can you give me that? Please?" You'll then probably get what you want.

But some people uses "diu" nonetheless, and expect others to comply. But as expected, people don't. So then they go around bitching that guy is a jerk and he's a weirdo and he suck donkey cock and all the other unpleasantries.

It's a weird world, after all. Diu....

Autumn

Wish I had more time to go out 'shotting instead of busy hustlin'.



Yesterday it snowed for the first time. Click to enlarge.

No prize for guessing how I took this photo (no, it is not -ve, you dumass).
