After a short hiatus, I'm finally back to taking photos. I revisited the biggest religion supermarket(tm) in Asia to snap some CNY cheers there (they light up the temple like a fking bloody christmas tree every CNY). The first time I'm up there snappin' the CNY mood is the time when I just got my SLR (it's a Sony). Enough of flashback bullshits. I'm now a Nikon user and not very happy about it. Nikon suck donkey cock, period.
Anyways, it's like a SLR slug fest up there. Tens of thousands of I think there must be like 20-30 photog who yield a bloody tripod and a bagful of camera gears (battery chargers, blowers, lens tissue, lenspen, lens cleaning liquid, a spare body, a spare compact camera, USB cables, card readers, their Sony A230 user manual, etc etc) proudly totting their gear, blocking the path as if the whole fking place belongs to them. Time have sure changed. I still remember the "good ol' days" when only pros had something that resembles a camera with a fixed focal lens on, and these ppl, they respect the environment, never makes a scene like they own the baddest SLR in town. OK... I made up the last line... but I really think SLR users are a bunch of motherfuckers now. Especially those that took less-than-ordinary pictures.
Enough ranting, lets move on to those less-than-ordinary pix. =S
As I was speeding down the Jelutong expressway (the only road in Penang that you can legally "speed" at 80kph) then suddenly a thought came to me.
It's Saturday morning, I've just closed a deal with my favourite vendor, was on my way to lunch with someone i don't mind spending the rest of my life with, the car no longer produce a creaking sound (i just fixed it yesterday) Everything just seemed so right. Suddenly, I had this realization, I'm actually happy being who I am.
Could this be the beginning of something good?
I eased the accelerator while a song about the story of hip hop fades into the background.
p/s: The deal is a small one, mind you. So don't come asking me to treat anything you bloody leeches.
Finding emo. 
Pedobear, where art thou? 
One taken before tis' could even be snapped wtf. 
Unassuming looks >_<
Teh correct way to hold a dim sum. 
ditto. 
Flower shot, for once in quite awhile.
Not sure what is this flower.. 
My new loot. 
ISO6400 f/16 macro ^ ^
I learn some small details these few months.
1) A lot of people wants to be successful but very few is willing to do the dirty work.
2) People liked getting trapped in life-wasting routines not because they don't know it; rather, they chose to waste their life.
3) Many people dislikes engineering but they do it anyway.
4) No amount of training will get you anywhere near the "talented" person you aspired to become. It takes much more than a stack of books to be the "talented" person.
5) People (esp engineers) SHOULD really evaluate where their strength lie and move toward that direction.
6) No such thing as "income generating hobby".
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)

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.
