Its been a hectic week. I don't really remember much what I did though... I remember shooting quite a lot again. So anyway! I collected the Canon PIXMA Pro 9000! And it prints really really fast! Less than a minute for a 4R photo! I didn't time it but it sure didn't feel like a minute! So I edited and printed 5 photos for my boss as well as sprayed the protective spray. However... Because of the wind and the fact that there were 5 prints, some got stuck and it doesn't look even and one had some newspaper on it!
So yea... I've thought of a way to get it to stay. But using a 3M tape to hold the print from the back on a mounting board and spraying it, when its dry, take off the print from the mounting board and ta da!Prints that are easy to transport, dry and arrange. Though I have to really pay attention to eveness when I spray... I've decided not to get a respirator as well! Due to the fact that its seldom that I spray many prints in one go. Recently was the 5 for my boss and next will be 24 for my colleague wedding. After that, its probably one at a time for my own display or port folio...
So here's a photo of the PIXMA Pro 9000 with one of the print!
Just yesterday, the sunset was pretty intense, I shot quite a bit and probably got the best pano HDR to date so far, in my opinion anyway. However, I forgot to resize it but I shall post a photo which will be below this paragraph of roughly what I saw when I was looking at the sunset
Actually the yellow might be a little exaggerated, but it sure was one of the most beautiful sunset I've seen to date!
Also! I recently shot Queensway Secondary School's Aesthetic Night 2011 and I shall post some shots which I like or made me laugh :D
The beginning of ELDDS's play
One of the story tellers, I laughed at this, I know I sound bad, but I'm sorry people
I like the 2 below this sentance
Chatting
Awkward moment
Though this probably isn't the most flattering especially for the girl on the right, I'm pretty convinced by her acting :)
I laughed at the girl on the right again, sorry but it was just funny to me :D
I quite enjoyed the Indian dance this time round though, thought this image looked pretty good slightly desaturated
I quite enjoy capturing dance despite the hard work needed to capture dance, maybe I should shoot more dances... :/
When I first saw this picture after shooting it, I find that she looks pretty much like a backup dance although she's one of the dancers from the hip hop group
This girl got style, or attitude, I don't know what the kids call this but I like this
I enjoyed the Malay dance as well (if you realized, I pretty much enjoyed all the dances except Chinese dance and I never upload any :X)
The finale, one of the Indian dancers
I really enjoyed the performances from most of the group but didn't really enjoy some like the choir which was kinda sleepy feeling, and the ex students band wasn't really interesting either. I was too busy to actually pay attention to the Military Band which I really have to apologize for. All the photos from the Aesthetic night were above were shot without flash... I had problems getting the Metz to play nice with the D3. Except for some of the more formal shots with the guests. I have to play more to learn how well they work with each other :/
All in all, was a pretty good experience and test of the Nikon D3 in low light. I still have a lot to learn about the camera as well as the properties of the RAW file and Nikkor lenses. But I'm really loving it (except for the grip, YES NIKON! THE GRIP SUCKS! No idea why people say its good ergonomics, though I agree in landscape is good though lose to the E-1 but portrait, it SUCKS BIG TIME!).
Today I worked and went to have dinner with my buddy as well as get my lens back from an old friend of mine. I bought Canon satin paper and CD-R only to my "horror" that I found I still have CD-Rs. Talk about a -_-" moment. In any case, at least now I know I have a new set waiting. Can't wait to try out the satin paper! Can't wait to order more stuff from Amazon either! I got a lot in my cart now :/ Can't wait to get more books too!
Good night world!
