365 Project : Day 249

We went to Tiesto’s concert in Yas Island Abu Dhabi, it was an awesome show.  This is the first time I’ve seen Yas Island and it is really an amazing place.  It is perfect for concerts, I find this new venue better than what I have seen in Dubai so far, so kudos to Abu Dhabi for that.  It was really tough to snap a decent picture because of the people getting crazy for the music and all but, I […]

365 Project : Day 143

I’ve always wanted to know how it looks underwater; It intrigues me; I wanted to know what is happening to that place I can’t see.  It’s good that with the help of a camera, I can see what’s below the surface.  I used my point and shoot camera with this one, Lumix LX3 with underwater casing.   This is my first underwater shot 🙂 Gear:  Lumix LX3 Settings:  f4.5 | 1/800 | ISO 400 Post processing: Adjusted contrast Dodging and burning […]

365 Project : Day 116

Using my ever dependable point & shoot cam the LX3;  I placed it right under the Bamboos and set the dial for the High Dynamic scene more (or the built in HDR mode);  No more multiple exposures or tonemapping,  it’s all taken care of by the camera 🙂  A few people looked weird at me while doing this shot, but I couldn’t care less 😛 Gear:  Lumix LX3 Settings: f4.0 | 1/500 | ISO 400 (High Dynamic Art Scene mode) […]
