How come when you purchase using your credit card, you feel like you didn’t spend at all… Until the bill arrives of course. Then you faint. Sometimes I wish I could throw my credit cards and never use them ever again. This thought was the inspiration of this picture. Anyway, we got to do what we got to do… How I took it: Gear: Lumix LX3 Settings: f2.0 | 1/5 | ISO400 | Dynamic Scene Mode | Square format 1:1 […]
Ideas… crazy it may be, sometimes we should just give it a try. This is our brand new gas range. The oven is yet to be used, so before it gets greasy in there, I decided to put my LX3 to the grilling pit :). Now we know how it looked like inside an oven, oh man… poor chicken. Anyway, it’s weekend! If you want to get crazy, this is it! How I took it : Gear: Lumix LX3, I […]
To think that this is all desert before… it’s quite nice here now. I like to shoot as much as I can with this place because in less than 2 months from now, our office will be relocated in the middle of nowhere. That place will have a lot of sand, dust and nothingness. Wow, I’m so excited! So, here I am trying to capture the place where I have been working for 6 years. I never appreciated its beauty […]
This is me while having lunch… Sitting on a bench in front of the lake. Today I had a subway veggie delight 🙂 Weather is really good lately in Dubai. Very relaxing and calming… Anyway, decided to put the LX3 on the ground and take a shot; this is probably an ant’s perspective… or any insect on the ground for that matter 😀 How I took it? Here you go: Gear: Lumix LX3 Settings: f4.0 | 1/640 | Dynamic Scene […]
Today our company hosted a karting event for employees. I enjoyed it a lot! This is me with my grudged helmet & racing suit (it’s quite smelly and itchy) but who cares! karting is cool! I took literally 3 shots and 2 of them are blurred… Luckily I decided to take a “stig” shot 🙂 How I took it: Gear: Lumix LX3 Settings : f2.0 | 0.5 | ISO 400 | Dynamic Scene Mode Post processing: A little dodge & […]
This has been my best friend lately… My daily companion for my 365 Project! My Lumix LX3 together with its friends, Sandisk Ultra II 8GB SD Card and Gorillapod 🙂 I decided to do some product shoot today and since I have been shooting lately with my point and shoot camera for my 365 Project, I decided to give it some sort of a tribute. Anyway, some “strobist” practice won’t be bad! I would love to do more product shoots […]
As much as I hate to see my face on pictures… Sometimes we have to let creativity do its thing 🙂 (blame creativity!). This is me driving to work… This is actually a Top Gear inspired angle 😀 A different perspective. Actually, this was taken on my way to the parking (hoping that I’ll get a good spot!). Gear: Lumix LX3 Settings: f2.0 | 1/320 | RAW file Post processing: Adjusted levels in Photoshop CS4 Little dodging and burning and […]
I had a lot of office work today 🙁 Speaking of work, this is our office building. I have been going in and out of of this building for almost 6 years. And this is the first time I took a real picture of it. Anyway, nothing fancy today… What I like about this is the mixture of the blue lights on the floor and the red cast courtesy of the break lights of the car on the left. Taken […]
I’m starting to feeling it… It’s not easy but in a way its good because you learn to push yourself to your limits. Today is day 3; I was in the office the whole day doing the stuff that I do pretty much all week and there I was, on my cubicle thinking of day 3. I really couldn’t think of anything to shoot when you are answering e-mails at work. Until it’s 6pm and it’s time go home. This […]
I have to do a 365 🙂 There are plentiful of reasons why I wanted to do a 365 Project. To those who are not familiar with 365, it means that I have to take a picture (and post one) everyday for the whole year, so that would be 365 pictures before 2011 kicks in. Let me go back to why I wanted to do a 365 project; here are my main reasons: 1) Ignite more creativity 2) Challenge myself […]
